The Standard Hotel announced Wednesday that it has discovered who was behind the leak of the tape that showed Beyonce's sister hitting Jay Z during an argument in one of its elevators.
The hotel fired the person behind the leak, but did not identify them to the press.
According to the Associated Press, the hotel said the person had been terminated for "breaching the security polices of the hotel and recording the confidential CCTV video." The hotel said after the video was first aired that it was "shocked and disappointed" by the security breach, that they will turn over "all available information to criminal authorities."
According to US Weekly, a worker at the Standard Hotel said the video was made with a cell phone that recorded images from a monitor in a back room at the hotel. TMZ reportedly paid the person who leaked the tape $250,000.
