The self-proclaimed “King of All Pimps” draws the line at being called a killer.

A well-known pimp who frequently boasted about his upscale prostitution operation, even taking credit for recruiting Ashley Dupré, the escort involved in the scandal that brought down former Governor Eliot Spitzer, complained that his image was tarnished by a YouTuber. The YouTuber accused him of being responsible for the death of a young woman 15 years ago.

Jason Itzler, now an outspoken online streamer using the alias “MrBased,” is known for sharing “IRL” (in real life) videos showcasing his daily experiences. He often collaborates with Josh Block, a TikTok personality with 3.8 million followers, under the name “World of Tshirts.”

Itzler is suing YouTuber Alex Novell for defamation after Novell posted a 30-minute video in July titled “When a Livestreamer Confesses to Murder.”

The video, narrated by Novell, discusses the unresolved case of the death of Julia Sumnicht, a college student and aspiring model from Wisconsin. She tragically passed away in 2010 in Miami Beach due to a drug overdose caused by a date rape drug. The footage includes audio of Itzler supposedly admitting to purchasing and supplying the GHB substance that Sumnicht consumed on the night of her demise.

“How Mr Based (Jason Itzler) got away with murdering Julia Sumnicht in Miami in 2010,” Novell, who has more than 33,000 YouTube subscribers, captioned his 30 minute video.

In the film, Itzler repeatedly denies the allegations.

He “has suffered severe emotional distress, mental anguish and other physical and psychological injuries” because of Novell, Itzler said in a Manhattan Supreme Court defamation lawsuit.

Novell also allegedly sent someone to trespass at Itzler’s East Village home in February 2024 and “physically attacked” and “choked” him Jan. 1, Itzler claimed in the litigation.

Court records show Itzler, who has 170,000 TikTok followers and an audience of 189,000 on Instagram, is facing harassment, criminal contempt and making a terroristic threat charges in two pending Brooklyn cases for allegedly threatening Novell and violating an order to stay away from him.

Lawyers for Itzler didn’t return messages.

Novell sued Itzler in March in Brooklyn Supreme Court for $250,000 for assaulting him in Manhattan in August. Itzler denied the allegations, court records show.

Novell slammed Itzler’s lawsuit, saying it had “nothing but bogus claims in it and it’s an attempt to silence me and this film I made about this case.”

Miami Beach Police did not return a request for comment.

Itzler, 58, was a tabloid staple years before social media’s cheap celebrity-making became derigueur.

In the 2000s, Iztler bragged about running New York Confidential, one of the Big Apple’s most infamous prostitution rings, and touted giving then-19-year-old “little lamb” Dupré her start in the Big Apple’s tawdry scene.

In 2011 he bizarrely spread what multiple sources then deemed a made-up tale of singer Billy Ray Cyrus doing heroin with an escort at Trump International. In 2012, he was sentenced to four years in prison on drug, pandering and money laundering charges.

Itzler and Dupré shot to tabloid fame as the then high-flying Spitzer’s career crashed and burned after a federal investigation into high end hookers snared Spitzer, who had secretly spent $80,000 on escorts.

The fateful tryst with Dupré, who used the name “Kristen,” took place Feb. 13, 2008, in Washington D.C.’s Mayflower Hotel. The governor kept his black, calf-length socks on during their encounter.

A month later he resigned, handing power to then Lt. Gov. David Paterson, on March 12, 2008. Spitzer was identified as “Client 9” in the feds ongoing probe of prostitution ring the Emperor’s Club, but was never charged.

Like Itzler, Dupré has stunningly reinvented herself.

In 2008 — the same year she was schtupping Spitzer — she began an affair with married New Jersey asphalt and road construction mogul Thomas Earle.

The two married in 2013 and have three kids of their own.

The former call girl — who briefly ran a lingerie business in New Jersey — now goes by the name Ashley Earle, offering parenting advice and clips of her young kids to her 310,000 TikTok followers. She declined comment on Itzler’s latest drama.

Her stepdaughter, “Hot Mess” podcaster Alix Earle from Thomas’ marriage to then wife Alisa, dwarfs her stepmom’s social media power with a whopping 7.4 million TikTok followers.
