Kevin Hart says he used the drug Molly prior to committing infidelity against wife Eniko in Las Vegas in 2017: 'I put it in my drink'

Kevin Hart admit to using the drug MDMA (also referred to as Ecstasy or Molly) prior to cheating on his wife Eniko Hart during a 2017 incident in Las Vegas, which eventually led to an FBI extortion probe.

The comic-actor, 45, made the revelation August 6 in Los Angeles Superior Court in a deposition as part of an ongoing case from his former friend Jonathan 'JT' Jackson, 47, Page Six reported Tuesday after reviewing documents in the case.

Hart told district attorney investigator Robin Letourneau that a friend (who he did not name) had pestered him to use the drug, but he told him, 'No, I don't really f*** with drugs like that.'

The Philadelphia native said he eventually relented to his friend's pressure to use the drug, putting it in a water he had been drinking.

Hart said, 'F*** it, I said, and I put it in my drink. I had some water there. It was watered down. Because it's in my drink, I'm fine. I'm fine with drinking. The night is good.'

The Ride Along actor said that later on in the evening, he crossed paths with a woman named Montia Sabbag, who he cheated on his then-expecting wife Eniko with.

Hart said he, Sabbag and a woman named Morgan went up to his hotel room in Sin City; Morgan subsequently left and he and Sabbag went to sleep.

Hart said in court docs that he 'did not have sex with' Sabbag on the night they initially met, but 'had sex with her the following morning' after she she woke him up.

The Borderlands star said that Sabbag had made an effort to position them 'closer' to a hidden camera used to film a sex tape that he said was a focal point of an extortion plot against him.

Hart said that he didn't think Sabbag left the bed during their encounter, and that the camera had been positioned in place ahead of time.

Jackson was eventually arrested in 2018 and charged with multiple felony extortion counts, with the charges dropped in 2021.

Jackson in July sued Hart, saying the Die Hart star had breached a 'meticulously negotiated' contract they had agreed to in July of 2021, in which Hart said he would 'issue a powerful public statement proclaiming' Jackson to be innocent of any illicit allegations made in connection with the scandal, Page Six reported.

Jackson, who is suing Hart for $12 million in damages and requesting a trial in Los Angeles County Superior Court, said that Hart had agreed to say that he was 'not guilty and had nothing to do with it.'

Jackson said Hart also said he would proclaim that he 'lost someone close' to him as result of 'the incident,' and that he was 'proud to say that all charges against JT Jackson have been dropped.'

Jackson said Hart's eventual statement on Instagram in October of 2021 was that Jackson was 'found not guilty' and that 'those charges have been dropped against him.'

Jackson said that the statement Hart issued had not cleared his name 'unequivocally' and restored 'his reputation.'

In the clip, Hart acknowledged his one-time friendship with Jackson, as he said that the incident 'put a fork in the road between he and I, and [their] relationship was lost.'

Jackson said in legal docs that he's 'sustained enormous difficulties in obtaining acting roles' due to Hart not clearly exonerating him in the 2021 clip with the verbiage they had agreed to use.
