Willis Sues Childhood Chum
Bruce Willis is suing a friend from his childhood for extortion, the Associated Press says.
The lawsuit was filed when Bruce DiMattia threatened to reveal private photos of Willis unless he was given $100,000. It states that DiMattia was “overcome with greed (and) was jealous of his former friend’s success.”
The lawsuit also stated the DiMattia not only worked for Willis from 2002-2006, but also lived in a house rent-free paid for by Willis. His job was to organize photos and videos of Willis’ family and to take care of the actor’s personal memorabilia.
DiMattia was terminated earlier this year, but he refused to leave the house.
Willis is looking for $1 million to be paid for damages.
