(nydn) Shock jock Wendy Williams' husband plotted to kill a Hot 97 rival deejay for bad-mouthing his wife on the air, an explosive federal lawsuit charges. Kevin Hunter, who is married to Williams, sought out a male WBLS employee for help in finding a hit man to rub out Hot97 personality Tarsha Jones, according to the lawsuit filed Wednesday. Hunter "was apparently angry over some comments that Miss Jones made about his wife on the air," the lawsuit filed in Manhattan Federal Court claims. Williams' lawyer did not return calls for comment. The blistering allegations are included in a federal sexual-harassment lawsuit filed by Nicole Spence, a 29-year-old talent booker for "The Wendy Williams Experience" on WBLS. She is represented by lawyer Kenneth Thompson, who last year won an million sexual harassment verdict against The Source magazine, the bible of the hip-hop industry. The suit says Hunter, who does not work for the radio station, regularly called Spence a "whore," referred to her with the B-word and called her cell phone to tell "her that he had been dreaming about sleeping with her." Williams once worked for Hot 97 but was fired in 1998 after getting into a spat with co-worker Angie Martinez.
