A former writer for Howard Stern has pleaded guilty to a misdemeanour charge, records show.

Elisa Jordana, whose real name is Elisa Schwartz, faced a misdemeanour charge of alleged battery after a live stream of her went viral.

In the clip, Jordana can be seen repeatedly hitting a man, who was identified as her 'boyfriend' Bahram Alipour, sat next to her in a car while they were driving in suburban West Palm Beach.

Jordana was accused of striking Alipour three times, with act being live-streamed in a video on her YouTube channel.

Earlier in the video, Jordana had also interacted with a police officer while the pair were stopped at a shop.

She then struck Alipour several times while they were in the car together afterwards.

Jordana entered a guilty plea for the offence of simple battery on May 20, 2024, according to court records.

She has since been sentenced over the incident, with the record indicating that she received 12 months probation over the offence.

The argument in the car had centred over Jordana accusing Alipour of cheating on her with a woman called 'Sara'.

During the pair's car ride, Jordana allegedly appeared to speak to the woman on the phone directly.

In the conversation, Jordana threatened to post naked photographs of her online.

When Alipour started to apologise to her, Jordana is seen hitting him in the face.

He could then be heard to tell her that 'next time you f**king touch me' he would 'f**king deck' her.

Jordana also struck him in the arm multiple times during the altercation.

Alipour then retaliated by grabbing her hair and pushing her out of the car.

When UNILAD approached Jordana for comment after the incident, she said: "I’m very heartbroken on recent events and also very regretful. I made so many mistakes recently.

"I have hours of footage with ZScorro, and if I had just listened to every single person in my life, this would not have happened."

In an interview with TMZ, Jordana claimed that she was afraid that she would have been hurt a lot more if she had not been filming during the altercation.

She further alleged that Alipour had 'strangled' her when she was pushed out of the car.

"When I slapped him, I didn't want to kill him, I just wanted to slap him." Jordana said.

"That's all I wanted to do, I was just mad... I felt when he was, like, strangling me, and when he was pulling my hair and shaking my head so violently... I felt he was trying to kill me."

Jordana told UNILAD: "I’m just thrilled this whole thing is over. I feel like my life was saved by my livestream being on."

UNILAD has reached out to the Public Defender's Office for comment.
