They believe that the audio and video tapes will prove that the 'RHOBH' alum didn't sexually harass co-star Caroline Manzo during 'The Real Housewives of Ultimate Girls Trip' filming.

AceShowbiz - Brandi Glanville's attorneys have a way to prove their client's innocence. According to a new report, they have reportedly sent a letter to Warner Bros. demanding that the studio release audio and video tapes that they believe will prove that Brandi didn't sexually harass co-star Caroline Manzo during "The Real Housewives of Ultimate Girls Trip" filming.

The lawyers claimed that Shed Media, a Warner-owned production company that makes the show for NBCUniversal streamer Peacock, should have released the audio from the stars' microphones immediately. They claimed that the audio would debunk Caroline's claims that Brandi touched her in the breast and genital area without her consent.

"It is absolutely unacceptable that your company would knowingly and willingly allow such a story to take hold in the media, without any regard for the truth or the impact on Ms. Glanville's reputation," wrote lawyer Duncan P. Levin, Esq. in a letter addressed to Warner Bros. attorney Demian West, Esq., Warner Bros. investigator Samantha Mirabello and Lisa Shannon, Shed's SVP of programming and development.

He added that the studio's decision not to release the tape while the accusations were being reported in the press was a "cynical ploy for ratings." Brandi's legal team accused the idea of trying to get potential viewers' interest with press reports about Brandi's alleged sexual assault.

"In that bathroom, as the audio will confirm, nothing inappropriate or illegal whatsoever occurred. As you know both from your [investigation] and the audio and video that you possess, the four women washed their hands before returning to the party where they enjoyed some food and chatted," he wrote, adding, "Throughout, Ms. Manzo appeared to be having a great time and didn't telegraph any signs whatsoever that she wanted Ms. Glanville to leave her side. Overall, the entire incident was comprised of some flirtatious conduct and kissing between Ms. Manzo and Ms. Glanville, and all of it was absolutely mutual and consensual."

He additionally wrote in the letter that the studio "aware that three eyewitnesses corroborate her actions; yet, Shed Media and Warners Brothers has [sic] chosen to sit idly by and let this false narrative continue." The letter also noted that "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star did nothing to discourage Brandi from touching her, was "outspoken about her liberal views on sex" and even offered to allow castmates to touch her breasts to confirm they weren't implants.

"Not only did the eyewitnesses ask Ms. Manzo if she was OK, to which she responded with a smile and thumbs up, but, after the alleged bathroom incident, when the group returned to the dinner table," Levin wrote, "Ms. Manzo made a lighthearted comment to the eyewitnesses about having been kissed by a girl before but never having 'kissed back' until now."

Levin penned, "The night in question was one that was egged on by your own producers, who, earlier in the same day, encouraged Ms. Glanville to bring some 'excitement' to the party. When Ms. Manzo arrived at the main house, the two women spent time together, enjoying some shots, laughter, and dancing with the other women. It is beyond contention that you provided non-stop alcohol and an environment where the participants were drinking and smoking marijuana all day and night."

Levin also said that Shed "instructed Brandi not to seek legal representation or to attempt to correct the public record." He said those instructions were "unacceptable" and "disturbing."
