Balo, a self-proclaimed whistleblower and former friend of Will and Jada Smith for 38 years, details his ongoing legal battles against Jada Pinkett Smith, including a civil harassment restraining order and a $3 million lawsuit. He alleges systemic abuse, drug addiction, and sexual misconduct involving Will Smith, Jada, and their associates, claiming to possess recorded evidence that has prevented further lawsuits against him.
Key takeaways 5
Balo represents himself in court (pro se) in a civil harassment restraining order case (Case No. 25 VO 064) and a $3 million lawsuit, having studied law for 14 hours a day for two years.
Balo claims Jada Pinkett Smith offered him $3 million to dismiss the lawsuit and sign a declaration stating she never provided evidence to Tasha K, which he refused.
He alleges that Jada's legal team attempted to use his homelessness and lack of funds as leverage during 'meet and confer' sessions to force a settlement.
Balo asserts that Will Smith's lawyer, Kenneth Herz, was reported to the bar for pressuring Balo, and that Will Smith avoided court by not responding to subpoenas despite being served.
The guest claims to have video evidence of Will Smith with Alfonso Rivera and Tyrese, and Jada with various individuals, which he believes is why no counter-lawsuits have been filed.
