Posted by grey, Sat Mar-25-23 09:36 PM
Last month it would’ve just sounded like hate (and it’s def a lil hate ha) but in this context I ain’t gotta stall him. Need the full story due process and all that but every interview Ive seen of him he bein a weirdo.

Great actor, last man in sf, love craft, carried the last ant man. Hampsome, a real negroes negro etc etc. nigga weird tho.
13481435, i def got spectrum vibes from him but not woman beater.

does it really matter?

if Kang was assaulted first does it matter? Doubt it.

It aint fair but it what it is.. eat that smack or do the restraint grip but once you swing its a wrap if you are Black.
13481482, it's that he's not really that famous and he is in a position

www.engadgethd.com - the other stuff i'm looking at
13481483, that, and he's too integral to too many people getting money.
Posted by PROMO, Mon Mar-27-23 01:14 PM
so people was like "nothing to see here."

then there's the "she slapped him first" part which complicates that for a lot of people (or simplifies it, to look at it another way).
13481484, It’s more bc he’s still a partial owner of UFC
Posted by Cocobrotha2, Mon Mar-27-23 01:57 PM
Owners don’t get disciplined unless they’re fucking up the money for the other owners… and, surprise, fans of a violent sport aren’t nearly as sensitive to domestic violence as the general public so this hasn’t affected UFC’s bottom at all.

He probably told his co-owners “My bad” and kept it moving.
13481485, like I said, even the women will defend that smack
Posted by legsdiamond, Mon Mar-27-23 02:13 PM
so its not surprise the men will justify it.

Will he get the Terrence Howard treatment in terms of getting recast in future Marvel flicks?
13481529, Not only that - he was nearly a shoo in for an oscar nom
Posted by Ryan M, Tue Mar-28-23 02:48 PM
Magazine Dreams is getting a lot of great buzz - especially for his performance.

Again, we'll see how this all plays out - because it could all amount to him being innocent of this. It's not GREAT that he has the reputation of having anger issues though. You'd think Marvel would be better at vetting people, although I guess the whole multiverse means anyone could play this part...so maybe they don't care.
13481530, Yeah the day it happened someone posted something similar

If his reputation was so well known, I wonder how he managed to get so many high profile roles in recent months; his management was just that good to smooth things over with the major studios?
13481534, look at the sources:
Posted by PROMO, Tue Mar-28-23 03:04 PM
we got two low level directors putting themselves at the forefront of this story making vague allegations and presenting zero proof of said allegations.

i'm by no means saying majors isn't a dirtbag and/or not guilty of this recent incident.

but, i think it's prudent to fall back and let this one play out instead of rushing to "cancel" dude. if he's actually the person these people say he is, there'll be plenty of time to end him. look at Nate Parker. pretty sure he ain't never coming back.
13481535, Fair enough.
Posted by Numba_33, Tue Mar-28-23 03:27 PM
In terms of this incident with the girlfriend, I'll agree with you in terms of waiting things out.

Plus there is the minor off-hand chance these two folks that spoke against him could have an axe of envy or jealously to grind against Majors.

Being a bully and/or being abusive will catch up to you eventually though as I imagine Hollywood isn't that big and having negative relationships with cast and crew will eventually harm you, especially in terms of major studios wanting to invest major dollars in you.

The timing of all this is brutal because dude is right on the cusp of blowing up.
13481537, this part:

like, if you're a wild dickhead? USUALLY, but not always, Hollywood just eventually weeds you out.

maybe it's too early in his career for that, but you'd think if he was like these allegations as far as being mean, abusive, etc. he wouldn't be getting the MAAAAAAAAAAAAD looks that's he's getting in HUGE movies, franchises.

13481561, Yet, when asked to give examples of his so called behavior,
Posted by allStah, Wed Mar-29-23 04:41 AM
or talk about any incidents that occurred, they didn’t.

“Neither Allen nor Nicolai provided specific allegations of things Majors had done. When asked by multiple social media users why neither of them came forward before this to warn the public about him, both Allen and Nicolai pointed toward their unwillingness to name and involve the people they say Majors harmed. Both have since made their Twitter accounts private.”

And like the report said both has since made their accounts private…I wonder why?
So maybe they could just be talking out of their ass. That would be like me accusing
you of something, but when asked to provide proof or information in regards to my
accusation, I instead make excuses.

People in here are already calling him a woman beater and making accusations
with ZERO proof of anything, and it’s possible that he could be the victim.
It’s possible that after his girlfriend saw that he was getting text from other
women, she became outraged and attacked him, and he defended himself.

I guess that would be too difficult of a task to analyze both sides of the situation,
and it’s just easier to accuse/stigmatize a black man without any proof
or evidence.

Well, I can instantly tell who the white posters are.

“TMZ first broke the story on Saturday afternoon after Majors’s arrest, reporting that Majors had been receiving texts from other women, which angered his girlfriend and led to a confrontation. Some reports state that the woman called 911 over the alleged assault; however, one report citing “police sources” claimed Majors called the police himself out of stated concern for his girlfriend”

Further information needs to be provided, because it’s not clear who the victim is
in this situation.

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY would your OWN lawyer put this out...and to TMZ???

makes him not look good, although from the texts (assuming she sticks to her word) at least it sounds like she won't press charges so he won't LEGALLY be in trouble.

she confirms she has injuries and says she tells them it was her fault for trying to grab his phone. OOOOF.

this could still go either way, but damn that doesn't look good for him.

13481692, How does it not make him look good, and your assumptions
Posted by allStah, Thu Mar-30-23 01:14 PM
of a cover up?

She clearly stated that he didn’t strangle her, because the police stated that he did
in the report that she received, and she stated point blank that he didn’t.

Also, she also stated that no attack happened, and that the police didn’t have her
blessings regarding any charges.

Who’s to say that she didn’t get her injuries from trying to grab
his phone and and he wrestled with her trying to keep his phone from being taken, like
protecting one’s property when someone is trying to take something from
you?

You mofos think of the worst, and never investigate ALL the angles when it comes
to a black person.

Always .

And as far as the lawyer sharing the text messages, welcome to the age of social
media. That’s what politicians and lawyers have been doing in this age
13481695, thinking these texts make him look good is a wild take

Posted by allStah, Thu Mar-30-23 02:01 PM
You’re not a lawyer, nor is it your expertise …so quit trying to demonize someone.

She said he didn’t attack her in the text…Facts…

And how do you know she didn’t attack him while trying to grab his phone in outrage,
and he protected himself, and she got injured while he was protecting himself?

It appears that she was the offensive person in the situation because she was angry with
him for receiving text from women…

Did she simply grab his phone? Did she push or hit him while in the act?

Did he wrestle with her to get his phone back and she got
injured in the process ?


Did he hit her during the situation?

Who is the attacker?

Who is the victim?

We don’t know….

But from those text messages that she sent…it’s clear that he didn’t strangle her or attack
her..so that’s outta of the way.

I’m starting to realize how unintelligent , racist and just plain out inhumane a lot of
people on the board is.
13481709, cmon b.. you aren’t a lawyer either
Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Mar-30-23 03:53 PM
sure.. she said he didn’t attack her but she would’ve told how the injuries happened.

she mad have attacked him, but restraining a white woman to the point she has injuries aint a good look

I’m Black as fuck.. not complexion but Black mom, Black dad.. and that brotha sounds like he put hands on her to the point it was visible.

shit, IMO the text sounds like she is still setting his ass up for the fall.
13481699, she said they arrested him because of her injuries
Posted by legsdiamond, Thu Mar-30-23 01:52 PM
and she shouldn’t have grabbed his phone

what Black man calls the cops because a white bish tried to grab his phone?

you say fuck nah and dip..

you wild af but on brand for thinking this makes him look good. I dont want him to lose but this shit does NOT make him look good at all. Just looks like a white woman who realized the bag is fucked up now and she’s “sorry”

People think they're so insightful for pointing out that she sounds abused. She could just as easily realize that the text makes it sound that way. People don't know her, but think she's a damsel in distress who couldn't possibly think enough to be manipulative in the way she communicates. The perks of being a white woman... always assumed to be innocent and naive, without any will to be cunning, even when nothing could be farther from the truth.
13481829, I grew up in the burbs so I’m familiar with all these women can do
Posted by legsdiamond, Mon Apr-03-23 11:37 AM
but even if she attacked herself these things are all true IMO

dating white is risky
calling 911 to help is riskier
and the text she sent still make it look like he could’ve put hands k. her even if he didn’t.

“I shouldn’t have reached for your phone” damn sure implies his reaction had something to do with her health and sanity.

Did she go into shock after viewing his phone?
13481844, I mean how would it sound differently if she was legitimately regretful.
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Mon Apr-03-23 02:41 PM
I think there is a certain segment who will think he is an abuser regardless of what she said. So they were always going to read this as coded or read something into this.

If we were reading into subtext and deeper meaning, I could just as easily argue that his "Bye Felicia" response to her does not sound like a dude who knows he deeply fucked up.

Compare his response to Tori Lanes who knew he fucked up and was saying whatever he had to say to get both girls back on his team.

As a dude who has to have made many many drunken apologizing calls and texts, it don't look like this when you wake up the next day and assess the damage from the night before and go into damage control mode. She's the one who sounds like they are in damage control.

ionno, someone reaches for my phone I don’t expect them to end up injured or at the hospital. I say “chill the fuck out” and get out of the cab/car.

13481789, Man, I had at least 3 crazy interactions with crazy white women this week.
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Sat Apr-01-23 10:02 AM
Two be fair, I was on vacation so 2 interactions were with drunken white girls invading the space of people in my party in such a way that if any other person (i.e., male or black woman) had done it, they would likely be arrested.

The other was with a young college age white girl who we told to scram from smoking weed in front of my building, waited until her mom got home and started screaming in front of our building that the other dad I was with "charged" at her. I went immediately to our ring camera to save the tape as proof her accusation was completely false.

That's just this week.

At any rate, I say this all to say I would wait and see before drawing conclusions about what happened. It's just wild for me to people so adamant about what happened between these two people when we know nothing about either.

Not saying a brother with a lot to lose isn't capable of doing some dumb-ish like choke a woman, but I find it just as crazy to think a drunken white girl isn't capable of having some dramatic self-harming episode that would get a brother locked up.

Again, i don't know any of these people, so I will wait and see.

Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Mon Apr-03-23 02:44 PM
At least not when I was younger and when I was in school. I have seen in happen a few times (maybe self included), where brothers from the South move up North from school and are shocked by how forward and friendly white girls are.

I've had to tell a couple of homies a couple of time, "chill bro, she might not be trying to get down, she might just be being that phony friendly type".

I know a couple of brothers who ended up on the dark side (or I guess I should say white side) because they just weren't use to having access to date white women in the North compared to when they were in, say Alabama.

First off, I’m from the North. I’m from Pittsburgh..the birthplace of interracial dating.

White women will smash a Black dude with the quickness.. that’s the easy part.

Most will be open and forward to a Black man too..

BUT ONE MUST ALWAYS REMEMBER

There are rules to this..

certain friends and family must never know about it or the chances of that white girl switching up or even changing the story is over 50%.

This is the part that MOST Black men are wise enough to understand but a few find out the hard way. Just because you smashed a white girl it does not mean they won’t run back to whiteness if those walls start closing in.




13481862, That part is the part I think the cats I went to school with were missing.
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Mon Apr-03-23 05:09 PM
They were so unuse to kicking it with white girls, they really didn't know the part about them switching up on them real fast. They were just so excited to be hitting it.

- woman claimed her finger was broke in the alleged attack but there is ample security footage of her partying at a club immediately after the incident and using that hand fine to do various functions, with no visible signs of any other injuries either (tmz has pics)

people use terms like 'credibly accused' that essentially equate to guilt based on how believable the accusation is.

and then you have the 'if theres smoke...' effect where multiple accusations just make it seem like the person has to be guilty of *something*.

he could be completely cleared of this. but those other people supposedly coming forward and giving different accounts of his other alleged abuses is gonna be hard to get over in the court of public opinion. regardless of if they can actually be proven or not.

exonerate him.

I mean I get abused people cover for their abusers all the time but she clearly states he didn't assault her. She clearly states he didn't strangle her.

To think the text don't exonerate really requires not believing him, not believe her own words and reading something in the text that contradicts the details she actually gives.

I am not coming at you individually, all of social media immediately did not take the text at face value and I think that hasn't something to do with racism conditioning.

Oh well, I wonder if RJCC and others will continue caping for that white woman even after this.

they said other 'victims' started coming forward in the previous month when he got arrested and that it would 'mark a dramatic turn in the case'.

yet here we are with no mention of other victims from the d.a. or any anonymous sources leaking to press about their co-operation with d.a.

her text saying “they arrested you because of the injuries” didn’t make him look good like some suggested.

Posted by soulfunk, Tue Jun-27-23 08:57 AM
formed based on limited information that's put out there.

Looking back at the original texts, at the time I first read them, I thought they looked really bad for him. Reading them now though I feel the opposite. So I looked back in this post, and realized that when I first read the texts, I was reading them in the context of someone hear posting and saying "why would his lawyer release these, they make him look bad." When reading them with that context, it's like my mind filled in certain gaps and read connotation that wasn't in black and white text.

On the flip side, with Majors and his team when they released them, they knew the context of what actually happened, so when they read the text their minds filled in the gaps with the facts of what happened, and they didn't think they made him look bad at all.

I see it happen at work all the time. Our executive leadership team will have multiple discussions about a decision, then multiple discussions about the messaging to employees. Then that messaging will go out, and we'll absolutely have some employees that will read into that communication something that wasn't intended at all, because we had the blind spot of knowing all the hours of discussion that went into the message and something we thought was clear was not.

There's even a bigger gap in cases like this where the texts weren't meant for public consumption and she and Majors obviously knew what actually happened.

Again...just a good clear reminder to not make assumptions or to try to convince others of your opinion based on limited knowledge that we have in situations like this.
13487503, have you ever been on a jury?

shit was looking bad for dude.

Next day, the defense shot holes in all that shit and we never heard testimony from that cop.

but this is just a message board.

of course before all the evidence comes put people will have various opinions.

but man, i just went back an re-read the texts his lawyers put out from the woman early on. they still look bad to me if you keep in mind that we didn't know all that we know now, assuming what we're hearing is the truth or mostly the truth. i'm especially speaking about what they look like in a court, where she is saying she is injured, and she's saying she didn't want the cops to arrest him, etc. that is classic abused victim stuff and that will probably play in a court when a lawyer is laying it on the table.

all that being said, it's looking like he's "innocent" and if so, i hope his name is cleared and he can get back to his life and career.

13487513, she worded that text like he still injured her.
Posted by legsdiamond, Tue Jun-27-23 10:23 AM
but he didn’t strangle her

like his was all over her trying to get the phone.

she also didnt say why she collapsed and passed out.

that text did not make him look innocent of anything but strangulation AT THE TIME.

13487516, NO. No. No. There is nothing in there where she implies he injured her.
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Tue Jun-27-23 10:51 AM
This is the part I keep harping on. She says he did not assault her.

Every reading of him be involved in her injuries requires ignoring what she says and reading things into it that aren't there.

People kept saying, well how else would she be injured but the thruth is we don't know because we weren't there. We waited and got an answer.

I mean to be honest, the lawyers details and explanation are almost TOO perfect. The part where there was another witness when he first found her is completely exonerating. The insider reviewed a lot of the evidence but I hope for him the witnesses (cab driver, fans on the street and the super) all say exactly what she purports they are going to say.

So cut out that "I haven't commented on it" crap.

In fact, your previous comment implies there must be smoke where there is fire and that's why his rep dropped him. That's what I find laughable. The fact that you think because white Hollywood didn't have their back meant he must have done it.

Listen so far its the defense attorney making her case to the public and maybe she doesn't have the witnesses she claims to have. I am surprised that the DA hasn't dropped the case yet if they've seen it.

But it also looks like the Insider reviewed a lot of the video evidence and the prosecutions story doesn't add up.

But you know, not enough info...

let's say everything Major's lawyer is saying is true.

then why hasn't the DA dropped the case yet? usually DAs drop cases that are certain to be L's. and, maybe it'll come in the next few weeks or something and it's just a review/timing thing on their part. it is concerning that it hasn't happened.

it's possible the DA has something that calls into question Majors' innocence and that they think can prove his guilt.

we just don't know for sure.

Posted by PROMO, Tue Jun-27-23 02:48 PM
i mean, the DA dropped the murder charges on the lady whose son killed the guy punching her in Chicago (?) after a day or two.

cuz, they looked at it was like "nah."

so, why can't the DA look at all that real quick and be like "nah?"

i'm by no means rushing to guilt or innocence.

it is a little odd though since it's been a couple weeks that his lawyers info about the acuser dropped.

but maybe the DA just dragging their feet. i dunno.
13487554, Why? I just answered that question. It takes time.

Why would the DA look at all that "real quick"?

Why wouldn't they take their time and get it right.

Or put another way, what do you know about the time line it takes to do an investigation and verify? Like what makes you think this is taking too long.

Like the talk about him is 5X the talk now. So most will be left with the impression he did it.

It ain't over. His attorney has been super aggressive putting out information and came out today saying that the NYPD is considering charging her as the attacker...

but the charges have not been dismissed. The NYPD has not commented.

It looks like she is a super thorough attorney who dismantled the prosecutions case with witnesses and video, but it's almost too perfect a defense. I am hoping she is really that good and has everything she says she has.

Posted by Frank Longo, Tue Jun-27-23 12:34 PM
>I wonder if Majors feels some kind of way.

I think when you're accused of something brutal, you're hoping your celebrity friends and co-workers remain privately supportive and publicly quiet. You can get older actors to go to bat for people, your Gary Oldmans, your Alec Baldwins, because they're conservative and don't give a fuck anymore anyway. But MBJ *just* got his first studio directing gig. He's not going to put all that on the line for a guy he worked for 3 months with.

Like, Majors went to Yale with Brian Tyree Henry and Winston Duke and Yahya Abdul-Mateen II... have they mounted public defenses of Majors either? I haven't seen them if they have. So, y'know, either (a) they're scared Majors did it, (b) they're protecting their young careers, or (c) both.

And I don't think it'd be fair for Majors to ask them to mount public defenses of him, because they weren't there. They don't know if he did it or not. They're likely content to stay out of it and see how it plays out. You don't want to jump in loudly defending a dude based on partial evidence in a news story, only to find out there's more evidence to come.

And again, Majors is a celebrity. All these dudes have PR reps (or used to, in Majors's case). He gets it.
13487539, I think if he got private calls yeah.
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Tue Jun-27-23 02:16 PM
But if he didn't get that call, celebrity or not, you will feel like folks turned their backs on you (even if you can understand). Remember we are talking actors, not the most rationale thinking folks in the world.

13487748, I think I'll wait to say anything
Posted by Rjcc, Thu Jun-29-23 10:44 PM
Because it would be improper to say anything definitive based on his attorneys lying on his behalf.

I don't know why anyone who posts on this site who pretends to allegedly be a lawyer would take an argument by one side as fact, because that would require stupidity on a level that is almost unbelievable. But knowing that buddy has invalidated himself for the one hundred thousandth time is different from having definitive information about what did or did not happen that night

https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-features/jonathan-majors-abuse-allegations-yale-1234781136/amp/

"As part of Majors’ legal team’s response to Rolling Stone’s request for comment on the abuse allegations, his attorneys sent six character witness statements from women who Majors had dated or was close with. Majors’ attorney noted in his statement that Rolling Stone “was provided statements from Mr. Majors’s actual past romantic partners attesting to his character and the falsity of the charges, but Rolling Stone purposefully ignored those facts and red flags and published the false charges anyway.”

In fact, Rolling Stone reached out to all six people. Three say they never gave Majors’ team permission to release such statements. Another woman declined to share the statement credited to her by Majors’ team, saying it was pre-written, not truthful, and that she had never approved of its release. (One did not respond to a request for comment.)

Only one woman consented to making her statement public. Haley Carter, a woman whom Majors dated from age 13 to 18, described Majors as “sweet, kind and gentle,” in a message drafted in late March. ”After 20 years of knowing him, I can tell you who Jonathan is. He did not do these things,” the statement said, in part. “He is exactly the opposite of what these allegations say. Jonathan is the most self-controlled, disciplined, well-mannered person I know. We all call him ‘the peacekeeper.’ He is not violent in any way.”

The lawyer mentioned in the article is Dustin Pusch a defamation attorney.

The lawyer who representing him in the criminal trial is Priya Chaudhry.

And it's not relying on what she says. The article shared above the newspaper saw the evidence she had and verified it.

Maybe she is risking getting disbarred making shit up, we will see.

I thought it was just me until I saw the black-ish episode clip I shared.

In other words, given his situation, I think Jonathan Majors is mad foolish to jump in a squabble with young white girls and put his hands on them, even to separate them from fighting.

this don't sound like an emotionally abusive relationship at minimum, and maybe a physically abusive one, with both parties participating in the abuse?

i'm not speaking on his guilt or innocence. i'm saying their whole relationship sounds nasty and now you got the video of her chasing his ass around.
13495831, It's called a toxic relationship.
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Thu Dec-14-23 11:32 AM
And he from the South and should know better than to be in a toxic relationship with a crazy white woman.

Hearing the text messages from earlier it's kind of clear that Jonathan Majors is a fucked up guy who needs help. But a lot of the initial reporting on this (JM choked her out) turns out to have been completely fabricated and made up by the police (not even the girl was part of that) and never made it into the complaint.

And that's why I care about this case.

i don't think this is a guilt/innocence situation the more information that comes out.

i think they are both fucked up and need to never see each other again, and both get professional counseling.
13495844, Agreed

that he looks like he did some shit

but the whole “I’ll kill myself” really makes dude look guilty of something because that type of shit is manipulative af.

both these fools guilty and crazy af.

Posted by Doomdata21, Thu Dec-14-23 05:07 PM
I'm more and more squarely on Major's side since it seems like this is a movie star in the making trying to craft his career. His mistake is trying to bring ol' girl on the ride and she ain't the one. Whether there has been another situation that we're unaware of between them is not known, but the evidence is pointing to him attempting to get away with as little fuss as possible.

Those texts are possibly taken out of context (redacted heavily and cherry-picked) and from a previous time in another country. I believe they never investigated the issue over there and they've had it for a year at least. A lot of info has come out in the last 24 hours.
13495860, which country do you have to be in
Posted by Rjcc, Fri Dec-15-23 08:56 AM
where your girlfriend telling the doctors how she hit her head is going to make you kill yourself because you didn't do anything at all and are a very normal person?

my wife is accident-prone and I get the issues of pulling up to urgent care like "she fell down the stairs, that's how it happened"

no really... she fell down the stairs

there are no messages to her from me saying over and over how I'm going to kill myself if she says anything because writing that would never occur to me

Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Mon Dec-18-23 04:18 PM
A week long trial and facing a year in jail for smacking a chick in the back of the head who snatched his phone, and then later chased him down the street and showed up and passed out in his apartment (after going out and partying). SMH.

Mind you he got convicted of "reckless assault in the third degree". Meaning the jury didn't even decide that he intentionally tried to hurt her. Again, SMH.



https://nypost.com/2023/12/18/metro/jonathan-majors-convicted-in-nyc-domestic-assault-case/


As Majors tried to pry back his phone, Jabbari attempted to “protect myself” by curling her body away from the actor, she told jurors.

Majors then twisted her arm behind her back, causing “excruciating pain,” grabbed at her fingers and hit her with an open hand, Jabbari testified.

“I felt like a hard blow across my head,” she told jurors, smacking the microphone on the witness stand in front of her hard to demonstrate the strike’s impact.

he most like would not have even been convicted if it wasn't for his lawyer bumbling which allowed text messages that were previously deemed inadmissable, from a PRIOR incident, to become admissable and entered into evidence.

Posted by Doomdata21, Tue Dec-19-23 10:30 AM
There appears to be a pattern akin to a new policy on how they approach these domestic abuse cases where they don't care much about whether they have a case or not. Kevin Porter Jr's case and Major's case both have abuse "victims" that never wanted to pursue charges. In Porter Jr's case, the "victim" is actively saying that nothing happened as it has been reported. This is deeper than Jonathan Majors. Sad to see it go down this way.
13495991, okay this makes sense
Posted by luminous, Tue Dec-19-23 11:41 AM
because my husband got a traffic ticket in Jan 2020 and still hasn't had his court date yet. they keep pushing it back. i was wondering how Majors had his trial so quickly...

Posted by legsdiamond, Tue Dec-19-23 12:00 PM
but based on the evidence its pretty hard to see how they found this man guilty.

Dude worked hard to get here and its all gone.

I hope he gets his head right because showing up like Nino Brown at a domestic abuse trial against a white woman is some wild shit.
13495994, i think, if he's able to show contrition, and show that he's working...
Posted by PROMO, Tue Dec-19-23 12:11 PM
on himself via therapy, etc...i think he can come back.

because, fortunately for him, there is a lane here for that since he was basically convicted of unintentionally hurting this women during a heated exchange in their relationship vs. just beating her up.

but, it's gonna take him falling on his sword, and it's gonna take him some time.

AND, i don't think he'll ever get ALL THE WAY back but he'll work again.

Bragg's office was on a year or two ago pertained to these assault cases nor am I saying assault cases are on the same level as the decriminalized cases his office once sought to make lower in priority, but I wonder if the grief his office got from those cases is partly we he's seemingly throwing down the hammer in these assault cases.
