Duo tried to sell back Lopez wedding video

TWO men have been arrested for trying to sell Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony’s stolen wedding video back to the couple for $1 million (€845,000), authorities said.

The men tried to ransom the video after first shopping it around unsuccessfully to media outlets, according to a criminal complaint filed against them.

Tito Moses, 31, and Steven Wortman, 49, were arraigned on Wednesday in Manhattan Criminal Court on charges of conspiracy, attempted grand larceny and possession of stolen property.

A copy of the video was in a laptop in Anthony’s car when it was stolen in New Jersey last October. The car was later recovered but the laptop was gone.

According to the complaint, once they failed to sell the video to the media, Moses and Wortman called Marc Anthony Productions and tried to sell it back to the salsa star.

An NYPD detective posing as an Anthony associate engaged in negotiations with Moses and Wortman between December 20 and 27, during which the men demanded $1m for the laptop, the complaint said.

At one point the detective refused the demand and Wortman threatened to destroy it, the complaint said.

Moses and Wortman were arrested in a sting on Tuesday when they allegedly met with police to sell the laptop for a lesser amount.
