The court papers stated Joe’s victim – whom The Sun has decided not to identify – claimed he tested positive for Covid the day before the altercation.
On August 1, he allegedly asked her to inject him with vitamins. When she refused to get too close to him, the situation apparently escalated.
The Mexican documents, translated to English, stated: "He began to scream at her that she was an 'evil b***h' and he hopes she rots, and called her a 'w***e.'
"She hid in the closet and, closed the door. He began to shake the door.
"She opened it and ran into another bedroom in fear. He told her he was kicking her out.
"He grabbed her right arm, turned her toward him, grabbed her by the neck, and then spit in her face.
"He said she doesn’t care about him, and now she’ll care because she’s infected [with Covid] as well."
The woman then attempted to call the security team for the home – called Casa Aramara – when Joe allegedly intercepted.
She claimed Joe ran to her, grabbed her by the hair and pushed her to the floor.
He then allegedly stepped on her head, and put all of his weight on her body.
The documents continued: "He then put his hands around her neck and spit on her face again, and then told her to leave the house.
"They both got up, and he grabbed her by the hair again. He threw her on the floor and dragged her down the hallway.
"While he was pulling her, he was shaking her hair and making her head hit the floor."
According to the court papers, she sustained injuries that took over two weeks to heal, and required special medical treatment.
Joe was taken into custody under what is called a preventative detention on August 13, and he was released on September 8 after the victim allegedly "issued her forgiveness."
Joe looked serious as he posed for his mugshot.
The charges were dropped on the condition that Joe attend six months of psychological therapy, which law enforcement claimed he has completed.
The Sun has reached out to Joe for comment.
The Girls Gone Wild founder was previously arrested and charged with three counts of false imprisonment, one count of assault causing great bodily injury and one count of dissuading a witness following an incident in 2011.
During the altercation, Joe allegedly attacked one of the women and bashed her head onto his tile floor.
Joe was sentenced to 270 days in jail following that arrest.
Joe’s home in Punta Mita is an exclusive private property that often caters to the rich and famous as a luxury destination in Mexico.
It is a favorite spot for Kim Kardashian, her sisters Kourtney, Khloe, Kylie and other family members, as well as other A-listers.
He first became famous for creating the Girls Gone Wild franchise. Joe moved to Mexico following a bankruptcy case and trouble with the IRS in 2013.
