[@cameobelafonte4975]

@@The_Champagne_Socialist_is she still arrested? Or was she released after the case was over. Like a slap on the wrist is not justice because he still could go to jail for a year potentially on charges they normally say don’t even make it to court, but because of the high profile case it was the DA wanted to get some extra scooby snacks. Just like the Tory Lanez case. They had the driver come to the courthouse and he got turned away because the DA was trying to rush the case. His statement alone from that night would’ve potentially only got Tory maybe a fine. Not 10yrs in jail. That’s the only guy in the car who wasn’t drunk that could remember everything. Reading his statement, Kelsey would’ve went to jail. Put him up on the stand first and Kelsey probably wouldn’t have been able to plead the fifth because she’s already caught. Megan would owe him an apology, although I know she knows who actually shot her, she’s just lying at this point because you have to continue a lie once you start going. How was this man supposed to call the police when the lady was assaulting him an had his phone. If she was a man an he did the reverse this would’ve been worse it’s like I’m the victim even when I’m not the victim.

LoveCraft Country was good, solid acitng and story. The trope of the white nazi man is stale, the social commentary didnt pull me in, cause i am not american nor black, but the overall arc, the crazyness and the acting was entertaining. It had Omar Little (Michael K. Williams) that was good too.

[@tashadfowler3465]

The crazy part is she was charged with assault and criminal mischief and then fled the country, but the DA dropped the charges so they could go after Jonathan Majors. In the original video that was leaked that everyone saw before this court date they are images of her hitting her head on the DJ table. Plus there was no blood found in the car there was no blood on her friend there was no blood on her clothes but body cam footage of the police show that was blood on the comforter. And they had clear video footage of her after the incident. What was also presented in court what photos of the night out with the girl Chloe which had close up images of jabari's hand with no injury. And what's even crazier in the state of New York you are allowed to use reasonable force when someone takes your property such as cell phone purses backpacks Etc but let's get to the point of the reason why he was arrested she claimed that he strangled her or choked her but doctor said nobody touched you or put a hand on you. So she retracted the statement. And change it to he twisted my arm and beat me in the head which the doctor said that was a lie also. The injuries do not match up with her claims.

Everything JM said in them text and voice recording is exactly what happened to him. What we need to pay attention to is WHY was she recording him in the first place... that chick was on a mission.

@@freddyfaerie3499 no he was charged with 4 counts, convicted on two, acquitted on the two most major ones. Mind you, when he was arrested and the DA originally charged him with SEVEN counts and three were dismissed, so that left the four he went to trial on. So in the end he was acquitted of the main charges, five of them, three dropped before trial and two acquitted by the jury, but found guilty of the two least offensive charges, one of unintentional reckless harm, which would be no different than say if you were a woman yanking back your purse from being stolen (since Majors phone was being stolen) and the thief broke his finger on the process (lol), and the other which is not even a criminal offense as it is a harassment violation which doesn't even stay on one's record; no worse than getting a parking ticket or a noise pollution ticket. The end result is the same either way though it's guilt by association and guilt by court of public opinion. There is 99.99% zero jail time for the former charge and obviously 100% zero jail time for the latter. All they have to hear is 'he was found guilty' and that's all that was needed for him to be fired and dropped from multiple deals.

He was found guilty of one misdemeanor and one violation of harassment which is not a crime, basically means annoying someone *Edit* I'm going to break it down for slow ones in the back. The first Charge is a Misdemeanor Reckless Assault without intent, which is a crime but essentially means an accident by reckless actions, The Second Guilty charge “Harassment in the Second Degree” not a crime. (FROM NEW YORK LAW) Harassment in the Second Degree, New York Penal Law 240.26, is certainly the least serious offense of the crimes associated with and related to Assault in the Third Degree. Unlike New York Penal Law 120.00, NY PL 240.26 is !! not a crime!! Just like a Traffic Violation i.e., speeding is against the law, yes. But is it a crime? No, It's a ticket with a fine.

[@HeronimousPhunk]

At least they are being consistent. From the Rolling Stone hit piece, the rumors at Yale, and throughout this March incident the story on Majors has been that he is violent and intimidating. The rumors NEVER get substantiated with actual individuals who can speak on actual incidents of violence and intimidation. What this tells me is that every individual case is not a good look for the accuser as well. Grace Jabbari, for example, was not the "ideal victim" (she's a drunk and is also clearly manipulative). My bet is that all the other people who have beef with Majors have issues that they don't want to put out, but they wish they could get him nonetheless. If any of us were continually scrutinized for fault and treated guilty until proven innocent we would all be "criminals"

And let's not expect Michael B Jordan too carry the culture he's just a puppet plus Jonathan Majors acted him off the screen in Creed.

[@bizzybrown5701]

Charlemagne is trying but he still needs to do a deeper dive . He needs to talk about what actually happened in the trial so people know Jon WILL appeal and he WILL win. Everything that was shown in court was actually working AGAINST his accuser . I followed the case closely . Judge had to stop audience from LAUGHING at GRACES CONTRADICTORY testimony . No bs. Her witnesses FLIPPED on her ..said Jon is innocent in court . The sole witness (the driver) said in court Jon is innocent . So the media really tried to railroad Jon . Also it’s more about men vs women in a hyper feminist bias justice system and society . The race thing is a smoke screen to keep half of society ignorant . Race is a tired concept to keep it all real . We wouldn’t be succesful if race was a real threat today . Just be honest . The culture war today is based on sex , sexuality , and things like that .

[@carlmathews5778]

@@bizzybrown5701 the text messages while heavily redacted showed a man being fearful of his girl going to the hospital. We have no clue what the truth is for that scenario but all females will judge that as him trying to protect himself for abusing her. Trust me it is no fair but reality. With that in their minds of an old case, they see him lifting her up and putting her in the vehicle as him being controlling and using his known strength to force her in the vehicle. Again not fair but with alleged prior abuse in mind it skews the rest of the facts. Appealing is risky, but if he can clearly articulate that the same way the phone was taken from him is the same he took the phone from her, he has a chance but is it worth it

[@bizzybrown5701]

@@carlmathews5778 I think if you look at what played out it’s clear Jon was afraid whatever the case he would end up in the situation he’s in currently . So it’s paradoxical in nature . He created his own bootstrap paradox out of fear . This is why I want to instill confidence and strength against adversity in the youth and my peers . Like this whole living in fear thing is our real problem . We often become threats to ourselves due to superstition and when our superstitions are confirmed we say “see I told you “ it’s like yeah you are right but it’s the actions you did to try and prevent follie that have ironically caused your fears to be realized . Happens all the time ..especially for groups who are constantly told they are to live in fear. That stuff ends with me.

​@carlmathews5778 Keep in mind those texts were from Sept 2022 in London, not March 2023. Moreover, Grace admitted on the stand that Majors never hit or abused her back in 2022, so whatever pain or injury she sustained that she felt the need to go to the hospital for, was not from him.

[@ImpossibleIsNothin]

I don't even think Disney/Marvel dropped him bcuz the Kang storyline wasn't performing well. The MCU phase 4/5 does suck, but Jonathan Majors and the Kang story was one of the redeeming qualities of it all; his performance as Kang & all his variants was AMAZING, and the way Loki Season 2 went, it looked like the Kang storyline was really gearing up to be something special. I think Disney dropped him quick (and that they were gonna drop him either way) because they just didn't want to deal with the P.R. of it all, since Majors' image was already tarnished at that point; Disney just waited for the verdict so they can avoid a P.R. backlash like they got when they fired Johnny Depp off of allegations, only for his trial to reveal he was the actual victim & Amber Heard was the antagonist. Also, sidenote: Majors did more than Creed & Marvel; he also killed it in "Lovecraft Country", and I think he was making a significant climb in projects toward black media.

Brian Buckmire legal contributor on ABC News who was at the trial says: "What I didn't like about this defense is they didn't focus on what is called Penal Law 3525, is the ability to use force to stop a larceny or theft or criminal mischief -- the damage to your property. ... The law says you're allowed to use force to take your property back. The law doesn't say, well, your girlfriend is allowed to take your cellphone because she is allowed to check for infidelity. The law doesn't say, well, ... I'm allowed to take my wife's property because I need to check it for this or that. No. To me this broke down to Grace Yabari stealing property and Johnathan Majors using force -- now the question is, is it appropriate force? -- to take back his property. But that seems to be an argument that was missed completely in this trial. I'm not sure quite why. For the most part, they really focussed on: Can you believe that these injuries actually occurred in that vehicle, when Grace Yabari then went off drinking with these new friends that she saw, that she supposedly bumped into a wall, supposedly bounced her head off in the DJ booth, was smoking a cigarette. Was her finger really broken? Was her ear really scratched? That's where this case really focused. It didn't focus on is any person justified of using force to take back their property?"
