A video company paid two homeless men $50 to be beaten by scantily clad women, violating Florida law, according to a lawsuit filed by the men?s attorneys.
In the complaint, the men say they were paid by shefights.net for appearing in so-called ?beatdown? videos with the women at a St. Petersburg townhouse. The lawsuit claims the beatings are illegal and fall under Florida?s Hate Crimes Act.
Southern Legal Counsel, which has represented St. Petersburg?s homeless in the past, sued for an injunction to stop the beatings and for damages to cover medical costs and emotional distress.
Jeff Williams of shefights.net said he plans to countersue, claiming the men and their advocates have lied and damaged his reputation.
