JONATHAN MAJORS ASSAULT INCIDENT

The highly acclaimed actor, known for his roles in ‘Creed III‘ and Marvel Studios productions, found himself in hot water when he was arrested back in March 2023, reports Vibe. The incident occurred after Jabbari reportedly spotted another woman texting Majors’ phone. This triggered a heated altercation that led to the assault allegations.

In the aftermath of the incident, Majors faced a swift downfall in his professional life. He lost his management and PR representation, despite recently tasting success with his role in ‘Creed III‘ alongside Michael B. Jordan.

MAJOR’S COUNTERCLAIM

With the trial date approaching, tensions are rising as Major’s legal team gears up to defend him against the charges. According to reports, the actor initially faced a strangulation charge, among others, but that specific charge was dropped, leaving him to contend with misdemeanour charges of assault and harassment.

In a surprising turn of events, Majors responded to the allegations by filing a domestic violence complaint against Jabbari in June 2023. The actor claimed that he was, in fact, the victim of assault during the altercation, alleging that his ex-girlfriend attacked him, resulting in scratches and slaps that caused him pain and bleeding.
