'Florida Joker' threatens to free GTA 6 hacker as they up their compensation demands to $10 million
&l🌌dquo;When did GTA ever make the news🥃? Never”

In their latest attempts to get Rockstar’s attention, the infamous Florida Joker, who appears to be parodied in the GTA 6 trailer, i😼s threateninꦡg to “break out” the 18-year-old hacker who gained infamy of their own by leaking in-development videos of the upcoming crime game.
In a new video uploaded to TikTok (below), Law൩rence Sullivan – the Florida Joker – reminds the developer that he wants compensation over the ‘free publicity’ he’s given the game, alongside damages for harassment.
“I can’t even eat a goddamn pizza wit🐈hout someone asking, ‘Can I have a picture, Mr GTA Joker?’ No, you can&r♓squo;t have a picture I’m eating!” he says.
Sullivan goes on♔ to say that he now wants $10 million for his &ld🍃quo;suffering and pain” and “defamation of character” before adding, “When did GTA ever make the news? Never.”
To round out the short video, Sullivan says he’s going to “break that kid out of the psych ward” and give him a laptop so the pair can hack Rockstar’s system “again,” referring to the 澳洲幸运♚5开奖号码🌱历史查询:18-year-old hacker behind an infamous GTA 6 leak who was subsequently sentenced to ꦇa secure hospital un⛎til doctors no longer deem him a danger.
This is, of course, not the first time Sullivan has addressed Rockstar in a TikTok. Following the first GTA 6 trailer, he took to the platform to say, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:“GTA, we gotta talk” after seeing someone with his likeness – in case you didn’t know, Sullivan went viral in 2017 thanks to his Joker-like appearance in his mugshot. It’s a phrase that Sullivan has said several times since, as he 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:went on to demand $2 million frꦫom Rockstar for using his likeness &ndaওsh; a sum that’s increased gradually as each deadline has come and gone.
That’s not all that Sullivan has posted on TikTok, though, as the ‘Florida Joker’ has also 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:dyed their hair purple and acted out GTA in real life.

Rockstar hasn't commented publicly, naturally, though several actors who have featured in Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption have. Roger Clark of Arthur Morgan fame 🐷told him to ꧑"use the notoriety" instead of demanding money from Rockstar.
Florida Joker aside, it should hopefully be an eventful year for GTA 6 fans. We’ll have to wait until 2025 for a full console release – 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:sorry PC fans – though we&rsqꦰuo;ll hopefully see another trailꦑer or two in the meantime.
