<p>Scott Mitchell, has released video showing ex- fiancee Mary Hunt, hitting herself in the head, in response to claims of battery</p>
<div class="artSplitter mol-img-group">
<p class="mol-para-with-font">The bad blood between them began after their nasty breakup. Mitchell accused Hunt of stealing millions of dollars worth of diamonds, jewels and gold from his home safe. Mary said he set her up.<br />
The Tampa Bay, Florida based Mitchell alleges that Hunt stole $2.1million worth of jewelry from the safe in his sprawling mansion when they split last summer. Last summer, Mitchell, 45, reported the loss of 99 three-diamond necklaces, 147 gold rings, 172 diamonds and other jewelry after he and Hunt broke up.<br />
He sued her in two jurisdictions, the Pinellas-Pasco Circuit Court and in the U.S. District Court in Tampa, for grand theft, naming her parents Linda and Michael Hunt as co-respondents in a $6 million lawsuit in which Mitchell seeks treble damages.</p>

<p class="mol-para-with-font">Hunt, 30, initially invoked her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.<br />
She has now opened up. In a 32-page federal court affidavit, she describes Mitchell as an abusive boyfriend who made false accusations when he didn&#8217;t get his way.<br />
&#8220;We had a tumultuous relationship and Mitchell was never truly satisfied with me because he could not control me,&#8221; she said, alleging that he vacillated between being &#8220;lovey dovey&#8221; and threatening.<br />
She accused him of editing his security video to set her up, withholding camera angles that might have exculpated her. Speaking through her attorney Barry Cohen, Hunt says Mitchell cooked up the story to get back at her, after she left him. They have asked a federal judge to delay trial in the lawsuit for a complete airing of facts.<br />
Mitchell&#8217;s attorney, Todd Foster, says the new clip is evidence the injuries were self-inflicted.<br />
In the recently released security footage, Hunt is seen screaming on the bed during a temper tantrum. His lawyer claims this shows injuries she claims were from Mitchell&#8217;s violence were actually self-inflicted</p>

<p>Foster in an interview said: &#8216;The explanation for the black eye is now very different.<br />
&#8216;There is no evidence that he ever beat her,&#8217; he added. &#8216;This video now demonstrates that she is striking herself in the same area of the face and head that they allege Scott struck her.&#8217;<br />
On her part, Hunt has claimed Mitchell was violent towards her, giving her black eyes and bruises, before he broke off the wedding in August.<br />
Her legal team have now hired a forensic expert who used to work for the FBI to look into more footage as their legal battle heats up.<br />

Mary told police the same thing. &#8220;I&#8217;ve never seen a vault room or a safe room or went near it and he has camera&#8217;s 24/7 in his <span class="vm-hook-outer vm-hook-default"><span class="vm-hook">home</span></span> so if I was anywhere near it the cameras would have me on it.&#8221;But Mary does have Scott on cell phone video kicking her out of his home, tearing up her clothes, and even charging at her.<br />
&#8220;You&#8217;re being violent; stop!&#8221; Mary is heard saying on the cell phone video.</p>

<p>But what are the merits of Scott&#8217;s federal case against his ex?<br />
Mary told police their tumultuous relationship was filled with abuse, manipulation, and false accusations.<br />
&#8220;He&#8217;s accused me of a lot of things. It&#8217;s a way he controls me,&#8221; said Mary.<br />
Hunt has spoken out about the alleged abuse in the past. She told the TV station in June: &#8216;There were so many times when I wanted to give up, but I couldn&#8217;t do it anymore and I think about how much he would have wanted this.&#8217;<br />
Court records also show it&#8217;s not the first time Mitchell has made inflammatory claims resulting in a lawsuit. He once created a blog accusing a former <span class="vm-hook-outer vm-hook-default"><span class="vm-hook">business</span></span> associate and his wife of having sex parties and running a prostitution ring from their home. The case was quietly settled.</p>

<p>They told the clerk they were trying to send a laptop and antique plate, and were hoping to insure the package for the maximum $50,000. When they were told the insurance cost, they then dropped coverage to $3,000, the paper reports.<br />
Mitchell provides a recording he claims, of a phone call a drunk Michael Hunt made tio his home. During the conversation he said Michael Hunt told him that UPS had delivered a box of jewels to his home on Pirates Point, Virginia. In a recording, Hunt says: &#8216;These are bracelets, these are diamonds, they&#8217;re every … thing.&#8217;</p>
