That's what I would do if I was in possession of that video.

Its entirely possible that Ford has been paying to keep the video quiet and the dealer is shopping it around now or Ford quit paying the hush money.
To prevent the whole drug dealer sells it after being paid off I think both the dealer and Ford would have come to some sort of Monthly arrangement where Ford pays every month and the tape stays quiet for that Month. Otherwise the dealer would just take Fords lump some and keep shopping the tape.
Just speculating of course but there definately are ways for the dealer and Ford to be able to trust eachother enough to supress the tape.
