wait is he STILL trying to deny the swinging and that he's banging April?
If I was April I'd wonder why this guy, whose balls I hold firmly in my hands and can crush like play-dough between my fingers at any second for any reason or no reason at all, is still trying to keep this downlow.
It looks to me that he's just trying to string her along just long enough to:
1) Get her to act in his interests in her criminal matters rather than her own,
2) Keep her quiet for as long as possible,
3) Keep her from consenting to the body cam footage being released until he can find some permanent solution to it.
The moment that he's gotten everything he needs from her, she will be discarded. Then April can go online and say that XYZ happened and Nick will just laugh it off and do very smug toast to the camera, because she'd have lost all her leverage over him by then. She will just be a "jilted ex-friend" whose words "can't be trusted", and the criminal cases will be resolved so her testimony doesn't matter.
