Joe Francis is sticking to his story about his brawl with Brody Jenner -- and he's already taking steps to make sure the key witness is on the same page as him.
TMZ has obtained a text message from Joe to Abbey Wilson -- his ex-girlfriend who triggered the melee -- sent just hours after the incident.
The text was sent August 28 at 1:11 PM -- the incident happened in the early hours of that same day. Joe wrote:
"Your statement is the truth. That jade threw a drink on me when I was talking to you and I reached around to tap on her shoulder to see who it was. Brody then grabed [sic] my shirt and ripped it partialy [sic] off. I curled up in a ball and covered my face. Joe never touched anyone!!!!!!! Most important!!!!!"

TMZ knows who triggered the fight that left Rihanna battered and bruised and Chris Brown an accused felon -- it's Brown's manager.
Sources tell us the woman who left the three-page text message on Brown's cell phone is Tina Davis. Davis -- who turns 40 this month -- was rumored to have had a relationship with Brown when he was 16. Brown and Davis have denied it.
Law enforcement tells us the text message to Brown talked about hooking up later -- and it totally pissed off Rihanna. She slapped and hit him and he then brutally fired back.
The detective's affidavit refers to the text message as being "from a woman who Brown had a previous sexual relationship with."
Davis could not be reached for comment.

Maybe the most interesting declaration in the new batch of Britney Spears legal papers is from a dude who lives in New Zealand, claiming Sam Lutfi terrorized him and made scurrilous accusations against him.
Stuart Richards, a resident of Auckland, somehow struck up a friendship with Britney. He phoned and emailed her frequently, that is until Sammy got involved. Richards claims Sam used several email accounts, posing as Brit, sending emails to Stuart and his dad saying Stu was "dangerous and had mental problems."
Stu also claims Sam used the phantom account he denies using (the one where Britney got a series of messages) to insult his looks and questioned his sanity....and adding this choice ender "asshole hope you die."

We just obtained the declaration Sam Lutfi filed with the court, in which he claims he had no direct contact with Britney Spears -- but he says Adnan Ghalib did!
Sam, who has been ordered to stay completely clear of Britney with no contact, claims "I did not initiate any direct communication with Britney Spears. Although I did receive text messages from her, all responses to those messages were conveyed to Britney through others, including ... Adnan Ghalib."
Sam does say he has "exchanged text messages with Ms. Spears."
Lutfi also claims he never threatened any act of violence against Britney or her family.
But Brit's head of security filed his own declaration basically saying Sam is a liar and that he witnessed him try "to contact Ms. Spears by sending text messages" to her hairdresser.
We also got a transcript of the text messages Sam allegedly got from someone claiming that Jamie Spears was going to make "some horrible accusations regarding you."

Law enforcement sources confirm to TMZ Chris Brown received a text message from a woman while he was driving with Rihanna and that's what started the confrontation that left Rihanna battered and bruised.
We're told the text message was from a woman who wrote about hooking up with Brown later.
We've also learned there is a reference in the police report to an argument over a rapper, but we've learned this is NOT what triggered the argument. The woman who text messaged Brown is not a rapper. The NY Daily News first reported the text message.
As for Rihanna's injuries, we continue to learn more. Cops took multiple pictures at the scene. Chris Brown allegedly hit Rihanna so hard with his fists, she could barely open her eyes for the photos -- they were almost completely swollen shut. She had a fat lip, her mouth was swollen, her nose was badly bloodied, and she had contusions on her forehead and both sides of her face.
And check this contrast out (video on right) -- Chris Brown singing a song about reading street signs with Elmo on "Sesame Street."

The night before she was allegedly assaulted after discovering a text message from another woman on Chris Brown's phone, Rihanna performed -- ironically -- at a Verizon & BlackBerry party.
This energetic performance would be her last before the attack.
