Washington DC, July 7 (THAINDIAN NEWS) John Edwards’ mistress – Rielle Hunter wants some of the profits from the book written by one of John’s aides. John Edwards aide – Andrew Young wrote the book ‘The Politician’ and then promoted it by talking about a sex tape between the two-time Presidential candidate and his mistress.

So now Hunter’s lawyers feel that she ought to get a piece of the pie as well, because her name and her sex tape with John Edwards was used to promote and publicize the book. Hunter is also raising a hue and cry, because she feels that the sex tape in question was taken illegally from her box of personal belongings. However there is no clarity over the amount of profits or royalties being asked by Hunter’s lawyers from Andrew Young.

However in his defense, Andrew Young claims that the sex tape was not taken illegally from Hunter’s belongings and neither was it stolen from her. On the contrary he claims that it was found amidst the trash, that Hunter had left behind in a rented accommodation. And his lawyers also added that the sex tape portion of his book was in fact just a small portion of his book.

“Nobody’s making money on the Edwards sex tape and nobody’s ever made money on the Edwards sex tape,” according to Robert Elliot, who is an attorney for Young.
