CelebNMusic247.com has learned [via 4UMF.com] Law enforcement sources who tell TMZ Sports… a senior investigator for the L.A. County D.A.’s Bureau of Investigationcontacted Shelly Sterling Tuesday … asking for an interview in connection with the extortion investigation.
Donald Sterling gave an interview last week … telling a magazine, “I wish I had just paid her off.”
TMZ Sports first reported … Stiviano claims to have 100 plus hours of recordings of conversations between her and Sterling.
Stiviano’s people told us a week ago … Sterling called her after we posted the audio … asking her, “How can we make this go away?” We have since learned it was NOT Sterling who initiated the call — it was Stiviano.
And we’ve learned the investigation is also focusing on whether Stiviano illegally recorded Sterling … recording private conversations without the consent of all parties is a crime in California.
