How Damaging Were Those Texts? - NY v. Jonathan Majors | Trial Day 5 Recap

- On December 4, 2023, NY v. Jonathan Majors kicked off with opening statements and its first witness testimony. This is the recap of Day 5 of this trial, which includes testimony from Grace Jabbari, the ex-girlfriend and alleged victim in this case, as well as Holly Blakey and Officer Brendan Swayne.
FOR CONTEXT:
New York prosecutors allege that on March 24, 2023, actor Jonathan Majors physically assaulted his then-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari in the back seat of a hired driver's car before throwing her back into the car after she tried to get out. Jabbari says that as a result of this altercation, she suffered a fractured right middle finger, a cut to her right ear, and bruising to her head. Majors, on the other hand, disputes the characterization of the altercation: he says she attacked him, and that he suffered scratches on his face and body as a result, and that he threw her into the car so he could get away from her before she tried chasing him down on the streets of New York.

#JonathanMajors #GraceJabbari #JonathanMajorsTrial
What do you think about this new text exchange that was admitted from September 2022? ⭐UPDATE: The texts in question have JUST been released to the public. See them for yourself here: x.com/vicbekiempis/status/1734973842500485639?s=20
Jabbari already testified that he wasn't abusive to her prior to March 24, 2023, and those texts are massively redacted thus there is no bearing on the current incident that he's actually being tried for and the 2022 texts couldn't be referencing abuse. If they wanted to prove he was abusive then, they should have asked her outright if that was the case to establish a pattern and they did not.
@@ultimamage3I came here to comment that. It really doesn't make sense. Why would Jabbari perjur herself to protect the guy she's currently testifying against. Seems like the prosecution is trying to smear Majors because they know the press is watching.
They look bad as far as his image. I don't think he's going to jail, but Disney may take issue with it.
Here's the thing and this is where many are confused. Many following this case are Marvel fans, no one thinks he's going to jail due to these text, the question many have is do these text hurt his career as far as his role as Kang in the MCU!
Interesting the text were released to the public only after the driver testified. Prosecution is losing bad.
Text without context is pointless. We have no idea what actually happened.
"His memory may not of bern petfect"?! Sounds more like a case of selective memory.
Just saw the actual altercation on film on TMZ. How in the world does the prosecutor sees this film and decide to charge This man. This woman ran 2 whole New York blocks after he tried to get away. This is an outrage. I'm sorry this is about his race and fame. We need to disbar this DA immediately
It was 5 blocks. She chased him 5 blocks, in heels, but only because she was in intense pain and was terrified of him. As one does.
@@chadthedad03🤣
Adam Floss a black ex prosecutor from out west is suing the Manhattan DA office for falsely charging him with rape over a year ago. A woman that he had been dating had falsely accused him of raping her, and even admitted that it was not true. However Manhattan DA still charged him anyway with no evidence at all. He won his case and is now suing them and the woman for compensation and damages. The same DA office that is prosecuting Johnathan Majors.
High profile case. They don't care whether they win or lose
@@bhyde88 This is fraud waste and abuse. There needs to be some accountability
It is still going to be really hard for the prosecution to overcome the fact that Jabbari went on an all out bender, which included alcohol, drugs, and pills, and prove to the jury that Jabbari's injuries were directly caused by the altercation with Majors. Even if they make that finding, how is the prosecution going to get over the "mutual combat" defense? If I was in the jury, it would be a not guilty.
The cctv came out today. He is on video committing assault on Jabbari. Even if she obtained the injuries through going on a bender, it doesn't matter. The crime was committed, assault is assault regardless of whether injuries are sustained. As for 'mutual combat'. He's twice her size... no contest.
@@thedirectorschair1054 Just watched it. He picks her up and puts her back in the car. That's not assault if he's being attacked by her as the taxi cab driver said. Nor is it the type of physical contact that would cause the type of injuries she had. The mischaracterization that he picked her up and threw her into the car is a flat out lie. He sat her in the car. He was clearly trying to get away from her. She was clearly the aggressor as she's grabbing him as he's trying to walk away. His size is irrelevant. A midget can run up and punch you in the face. It's still a crime when that happens.
@@thedirectorschair1054 Jabbari admitted that she initiated the contact by snatching Majors phone. That seems like she admitted that she was the initial aggressor. To stop being the initial aggressor, you have to "retreat" or have a "break" in the altercation. However, Jabbari chased Majors instead. This is definitely going to be a tough case for the prosecutor to win.
@@salaciousBastard Yes you're correct as to the events. I had watched a small amount that was clipped and not realised it wasn't the whole thing.
@@salaciousBastard I hate to break it to you, but picking someone up and forcing them into the car is assault regardless if injuries are sustained or not.
Did she ask for that? No. It was against her will and this is what he's being charged for.
The cab driver said Grace was doing everything she was the aggressor! I don’t see no articles talking about that! The reporting for this trail is so one sided
Why do you think that is?
@@theandroids because she was 🤷🏾♂️
The driver said he never saw anything apart from him throwing her into the car. He thinks she hit him judging by the sounds but he never saw anything
@@yippykiyay89 racist
@@dvcasey1 She was what? My question is why do they think that ie the one sided reporting.
I'm starting to think the prosecution and police didn't do their due diligence in putting together this case. At this point it feels like their goal is to make Majors look as bad as possible before they eventually lose the case. 🤷🏾♂️
Anything to keep the paycheck rolling and the docket full
Of course, the police isn't for the black community at all when their white precious is in trouble 😵💫 man this case is sad and she's pathetic 😞.
Yes. They want to damage him badly so he won't ever make a career comeback
I dig how little CZcamsrs commented on or glossed over how redacted the texts were. I saw the screenshots from variety and it was so redacted that it felt like piecing together whatever story supported a poor narrative. Like how are you going to redact large portions and that just feels disrespectful when asking a jury to condemn someone to prison.
Here is the crazy thing for me. The people magazine article that went viral, decided not to let folks know that the text were heavily redacted on Jabbari's side. So you get 4 text that have zero context and you aren't sure how they are related. "Thats fake" whats fake? What is he referring to? Majors asking about not going to the hospital ok, what happened? None of the text shown in court specifically state what happened. Majors then speaking unaliving himself with the text being heavily redacted, still misses the context of the conversation in general.2ndly, the judge allowing just these text in because the defense mentioned September of 2022 seems stupid because the prosecution have also mentioned incidents outside of March of 2023, and they have mentioned stuff from September of 2022.
The same time Jabbari seems to have a drinking problem to the point where she hurts herself when out at Bars. Yet, her text are redacted. Make it make sense
Cant majors released the entire text chain if it was redacted by jibari so we know the full context?
@@johncrichton8876No. The rules and prosecution objections and all that
I'm starting to believe she hurt herself in September and he knew it would get blown out of proportion or misunderstood.
Let's say she drunkenly ran into a wall, what do you think the media would assume?
@@Dizastermaster. isn’t there a rule of completeness in law that allows evidence to come in if it’s necessary to paint the complete picture and provide context?
@@sirflappington2484 Only if it doesn't break any of the other rules. The texts were probably redacted to begin with by motion if her counsel and order of the judge
What a waste of court time …
Bro Rich Men in Hollywood Gotta Be More Careful with Who they Choose to....
Really enjoying your analysis of the case and your break down of the evidence and how it can be presented by either side. Context is so key and there is so much being left out of the media coverage for this case. You're doing a great job of helping to paint a more full picture with added legal context. So thank you!
The text were heavy redacted and taken out of context. He was essentially saying that he wanted to off himself because she would not allow the relationship to end, and would gaslight, minimize, and make it seem like everything was his fault. Yet, she still wouldn't leave him or allow the relationship to end. That would make someone have a mental breakdown. He wanted her to stop drinking and aspire to be like king/Obama if the relationship was to move any further. Instead of listening to him, she secretly recorded him. She did not love him. She was setting him up
The 911 call is more damaging to her. While he was worried that she committed suicide based on her texts alluding to pills, she was perfectly conscious and texting her friend in England that "I bet he tripped over the suitcase" and simultaneously saying she heard him come in but also that she was fully unconscious/unaware and only woke up when the cops arrived.
Thank You 🙏
That’s false!! He was manipulating her and he did just that!! He said they won’t protect us? Stop trying to mislead the facts!! He’s a monster!! His words not mine
@@dilldirk284yeah you might wanna delete this after all the new video evidence that came out today
@@dilldirk284THE JUDGE SAID HIMSELF THAT TEXT WERE REDACTED AND WAS NOT ADMISSIBLE FOR EVIDENCE so the judge is lying ??
Thank you for just providing the facts that you have condensed without having a bias for or against one side. I've been following the case fairly closely from different sources and this channel in every video has provided the best context and insight I've seen.
Exactly!! She didn't mention any abuse earlier when freely given the opportunity before!!! It is an abuse case. It sounds made up. These texts don't prove abuse. The changes in Jabari that her friend notes could also be attributed to alcohol abuse
My question to everyone here is, Jonathan Majors on trial for March 22 2023 or September 22 2022? As of currently of March 22 there is nothing that has been proven by prosecution that implicates Jonathan Majors of the actual alleged crime. The problem here is assumption of something occurring on Sept 22 does not make it so of the Mr. Majors having committed a crime on March 22nd. And then after the cab driver testified Jonathan Majors is innocent and she is the guilty person.
I completely agree, he’s not on trial for whatever happened in September last year, to that extent, his overall character isn’t on trial either. He’s on trial for whether or not he hit her in that car, that’s it. I hope the jury can see that. Unfortunately, race may play a factor here - the jury might be less sympathetic and more quick to judge a black man.
Same thing I've been saying. Regardless of what happened last September, he did NOT do anything in March 2023.
@@melina.leany-g every defendant has the right to a trial by a jury of their peers. It's on the defense attorneys to fight for such a jury including to the point of asking/demanding for a change of venue. A lot of people were beaten and killed, including children, in accomplishing these rights for all minorities in the country. They should not let that literal sweat, tears AND blood go to waste.
I also forgot to say Grace stated under oat that Jonathan never had been physical with her until the Marc incident. So for those who think Majors was physically abusive towards Grace in September 2022 completely forgot about that fact.
Whether innocent or guilty, the text look bad for him! Companies and businesses may distance themselves.
Lol how?
Agreed, even if he never outright attacked her, I don't know any legitimate instance in which a person would prevent their loved one from seeking medical attention for their own stated self preservation. It seems very likely his actions lead to her injuries at that time, even if he hadn't intended them to.
Doesn't look bad to me because there is no context. We have no idea what happened.
@@RichardMeikle Businesses don't want bad PR, when he does press tours, he will be asked questions, also Disney and other studios may face backlash online by keeping him after these text were made public. Businesses are about money and if they see his behavior stopping potential money, they will move away from him. Many have been let go for less, that's how! Even his own talent agency dropped him and the army commercial he was in, got pulled. It's business.
The Text is redacted 😒
Maybe the text messages are involving sexual acts that he don’t want out there… ps a fight don’t necessarily mean a physical altercation
If only those people spent as much money on therapy beforehand as they are spending on the lawsuit now...
What lawsuit?
I'm looking forward to your recaps of the latest days!
Judge just released the chase video and bodycam. Also the full audio from these texts. He is a black man in the US who wants to be a role model. She has alcohol problems. She also seems to go out and meet random people. He was working on a film and she brings home strangers to his house. She uses his credit card. Seems to me she is needy. I wouldn't use someone else's money because it puts you in a vulnerable position. If she doesn't like it she could leave.
When did Grace say Jonathan didn’t attack her before march 25th. I don’t remember reading that anywhere
That’s because people are not reporting on that info. Only the salacious and damning info to the detriment of JM is mainly to center point of reports. But she DID say that in her testimony during cross examination 2 days before these text messages were introduced, which were HEAVILY redacted and without clear context. Mainstream media spun it for this exact reason, to make him look monstrous and manipulative. However, there is the testimony of the driver, the doctor and the 911 call that will put things into perspective as far as what type of “victim” we’re dealing with.
During her testimony, she was asked if he ever hit her and she said this was the first time, she mentioned he had bouts of anger or similar (don't remember her exact words) but he wasn't physical with her.
At the beginning when she was testifying.
I’d really like to know if people think it’s okay to be honest with your partner in a fight if you get to the point emotionally where you do have self harm thoughts. The thoughts and feelings on their own are not emotional manipulation, they are your genuine intense emotions, but is sharing that specifically to your partner who you are fighting with, is that wrong? Should you purposely not tell them and seek help from anyone else to avoid the real problem of causing your partner harm as well and guilt and all the feelings and fears that come with hearing that from your partner? Not really sure what’s right and I know each situation is different but I need to know what’s the best way to handle self harm thoughts in a situation where you are fighting with your partner.
To these people defending her, it's abusive for him to be depressed and express low self-esteem/confess to suicidal ideations when the other partner is causing those feelings of worthlessness to surface. Men with mental health should not be emotionally honest with partners or have expectations for their alcoholic partner's conduct because that's "abusive". But also seeking help outside of the relationship is "abusive" and "shameful" because he didn't "open up" to her. But actually her attempting suicide by pills and texting him exactly that to make him come home to her half-naked body is acceptable and not abusive, because he's a man and must've deserved it or did something to cause it. And her pretending to be unconscious while listening to him for 40 minutes trying to get into the room to save her life is acceptable. There not being any actual evidence of overdose present when the cops come in and no attempt made to administer counter medications, meaning she lied about the suicide attempt? Acceptable. Her allegedly facetiously playing an audio clip of ANDY'S COMING from Toy Story to reference a pretense of being Inanimate in the presence of JM? Acceptable.
To these people defending her, they were the ones arguing that Johnny Depp being drunk or drugged was pure evidence he was abusive even absent any documented injuries simply because "drugs" and he's a man. But here, Jabbari being a constant and consistent alcoholic is perfectly okay and Majors deserves it and can't call her out or set boundaries on her alcoholic behavior because she's a woman.
People are being reactionary. It is complete bullshit, the male suicide rate is so freaking high. Why is it more likely that he was being manipulative vs being honest with his partner about suicidal thoughts.
I enjoy listening to these recaps. I appreciate how eloquently you relay the information.
I tend to be a very trusting person. Because of that, i lacked some awareness and didn't always have a "healthy skepticism " of things i should have thought twice about. Its something ibe been aware of for years and I'm still working on it!
Listening to you recap this trial is like therapy. 😅
Obviously, you're not the only person who voices skepticism, but theres something different about the way you describe both sides of something.
On a side note...
Once the trial is over and transcripts (and videos) are available, i would love to revisit this case.
I wish all courts were required to broadcast trials on Zoom. 😢 this is a sensitive topic and i feel like body language is important. Also, this is a well known actor on trial for ab♤se. I feel like it's important that the public to know the truth, or at least be able to see the evidence so we can come to our own conclusions.
That was a long-winded way of saying, i love your channel, and thank you for being you 😊
What other evidence did the prosecution have? Because with the stuff I have seen, it seems like the DA shouldn’t have even brought this to trial. Afterall, multiple witnesses saying she wasn’t hurt or even that she was the aggressor, video of her finger seemingly uninjured, video of her chasing him after the alleged incident is pretty strong proof of innocence. Is there something more damning, or is it just her word, the officers, and the texts?
Easily could argue that when she was blacked out drunk she fell.. this case is such a joke
Do we not get to find out the text on the actual night .
My man was running for his life through NYC in hard bottoms. This girl set white woman back 50 years when it comes to brothers lol
It’s unclear about if it was about abuse or not, however what is clear is that he is emotionally manipulative, that can’t be disputed. Conscious or not, threatening suicide is manipulative.
We don't know for certain those suicidal messages were in relationship to the hospital. If you read closely there was no message from either party that mentions suicide and hospital together. Just like we don't know if she was faking suicide or not. I do believe he needs therapy. He seems to put alot of pressure on himself.
"Beyond a reasonable doubt"
- Jabari the aggressor, on video and via the car driver
- Text and recorded call that have no connection the alleged assault
- Jabari arrested and charged but charges not pursued
- HOURS ellapse since the incident with video that doesnt even reveal physical discomfort on her part
This is injustice
I just saw the video of Grace chasing Jonathan. It's on my videos... She's chasing that man like he's got a cure for Cancer. She could be in the Olympics next year .😁😁😁
Did you make this video before the evidence was allowed to be released to the public? Or after? Because now that we have more context it really just sounds like Majors is tired of his ex-girlfriend. There's nothing damning about those texts. Even the recording about him wanting her to be supportive of him like Coretta or Michelle was just him setting a boundary and him pleading with her to be good to him. He honestly just sounds exhausted and I feel sorry for him. :(
He was going through this, and now even after trying to get her help he's now being punished for nothing.
This was published maybe an hour or two before the evidence was released to the press. My thoughts have definitely evolved since sifting through everything
@@LegalBytesMedia Thank you for being kind throughout this whole analysis and for having an unbiased view of the whole case. You're doing an AMAZING job reporting this case daily and standing up for what's right. Just know that a stranger somewhere around the world appreciates you.
Thank you for replying to my comment as well!
@@MarcusObiPeterson I second this sentiment.
They released the running video. You should make a video on that.
Almost expected an ad read when she said she'd talk about evidence rules in a second :P
Just wanted to keep you on your toes 😅😂
VErdict is out, i am interested in hearing what you think whenever you ahve time for the recap
I believe Jonathan may suffer from mental illness or depression based upon those text messages. I think Grace is a borderline or maybe a alcoholic based upon the doctor's testimony. Then the video of her watching Jonathan go to the restroom; then guzzling that drink down her throat.
Johnathan appears to have some sort of Mood Disorder
His ex appears to have a Substance Use & Personality Disorder.
@@looseassociation Yeah!
This is not a good look for women. Inconsistent statement, and mischaracterization of what look like a victim being prosecuted as a defendant.
This must be so traumatizing to him. He saw it coming in those texts, and knew she would falsify statements.
You could also interpret it to mean he got her so drugs and she either got hurt or had a bad trip. Texts without context are hard to understand.
That seems unlikely, given the "I'm a monster" follow up. If he had just supplied her with drugs, she likely would have added a "I'll say I bought them" or "they will have passed in my system by then, they'll never know" or some other type of indicator. It's possible the texts aren't in relation to intentional abuse, but providing drugs that lead to an injury seems a far more passive act than texts like these would imply.
@@syntext Which was the prosecution objective, still they aren't evidence and were highly redacted. It doesn't matter how much you personally feel, context matters and is everything.
@@l4nd3r And you similarly don't know why they were highly redacted. The defense could just as easily comment on the nature of the messages if it would absolve their client, though something like drugs may benefit both parties to keep hidden. However, the messages are evidence of, at the very least, emotional manipulation to prevent his partner from seeking medical help, regardless of the reason why. I can't fathom any context that would change that aspect of it.
It may ultimately have little to no bearing on the overall ruling, but it certainly is valid evidence to bring up during an alleged DV hearing.
@@syntextToo many legal or embarrassing possibilities for why he doesn't want them released. But 1 thing I know is if it were strong evidence, then it would have led to charges in the UK.
In my country, my hometown there is a dv case of a man cutting his girlfriend which resolved in 400 stitches...400 people!!! He shaved her had and the court doctors said this is medium bodily harm. And this woman here chasing her "attacker" like ... Jesus. I didn't care if he cheated with the whole country. I am not chasing you after you broke my finger. In my country where 400 stitches are medium bodily harm this woman would be a joke. I am speechless
Just watch the video of him putting her back in the car and trying to get away from her
So you said she sent her girlfriend the pictures when she was in the bathroom/closet. Where are the pictures
Might have to speed up. Video has been released and we have heard the 911 call.
I know you're busy with this case but I'm curious about your thoughts about the alleged charity fraud by, CZcamsr, the Completionist and his legal threats to Karl Jobst and Mutahar (Aka SomeOrdinaryGamers). Kind of huge news in the CZcams gaming sphere! Thx!
UnAlive myself lol, that's hilarious 😂😂
He was the one to say that he was attacked on that sept 22 incident. The fact that the judge was not allowing the audio seems so fishy.
Under NY law on self defense, the moment she testified to starting the fight and hitting him to.submit him into releasing his phone to her, that ended it.
She is the accuser and she herlself said that she attacked him and he reacted to get her off of him and get his property back.
Can you imagine if he had attacked her to get her.phone out of jealousy and chased her down for 6 blocks to get it?
Defence did well in exposing her lies and showing her manipulative side. It costs him his image.
And him putting her in the car he clearly had no choice in lifting her first, this is a cadillac escalade. It's high. I'm.much taller than her and I have to climb. she would have had to climb while likely already intoxicated. He was likely concerned about her safety. Which the 911 call shows.
And why was she faking being passed out naked in the closet??? Manipulation.
All in all, rewatch how she twists Chloe's arm to go and confront him when she sees him again. Ask any specialist. She has the body language of someone violent while he seems to show the avoidance of someone scared and traumatized. An abuser does not run from his victim who also does not chase after them.
that's what he got messing with that Siren Carren.
Anyone who always makes a pout face every time they take a picture is guilty AF! Lol I'm just kidding! ( Why does he always make that face though?!)
Oof! It's going to be really hard to get past thoes text messages. That's textbooks abuser stuff. It's a little early to have ones mind made up, but I'm back to firmly being on the fence as opposed to being in Majors' corner still.
Those redacted texts is the only thing you team Jabari have. You guys are willing to hold on to those things because you know this is a not guilty trial lol
@@isonguyosamuel3184 Reading is hard, I know. But what part of "firmly being on the fence" sounds like I'm 'team Jabari' to you?
Don't come for me uless I send for you, bud.
@@JamCooper Yeah, sitting on the fence my a**. So you telling me the video of her pursuing Jonathan or the witness testimony especially of the taxi driver is inconsequential compared to a redacted non connected texts? Okay
Only some of the messages were released. That's why if you read them none of them seem like responses to each other.
If he made good on that threat disney-Marvel would’ve had to recast Kang regardless of controversy. Investors take note.
The video of them running was posted by tmz today
Good climate to rule in favor of the victim.
Whirlwind romance is what this is..mental illiness😢😢
As a Black woman, white women give me anxiety too. 💁🏽♀️
Don't go for medical help, if you do I'll inspire myself - feels very sus.
No offer to send her to a private doctor, no concern about her health, just a big bunch of me me me me.
Maybe it turns out he is innocent of the crime he's charged with, but he definitely doesnt sound like a nice guy.
I think she couldn’t handle the money and status and started abusing alcohol. That would explain the weight loss and working less (which wouldn’t be an issue if Majors was supporting her financially)
I have to tell someone? What is she? A dang court mandated reporter!? Come on
Nope. As soon as a creator self censors, I'm out.
Yeah I'm confused too...CZcams doesn't allow you to say suicide?
Heavily redadict text exchange
People say unalive too much -we are in 1984
If he typed those messages not her, he certainly seems abusively manipulative.
Leave those snow bunnies 🐰 my brothers
Wow, comment section has a completely different take than me
Those texts certainly have the feel of gaslighting, but I will agree, when someone is in a dark place mentally, any dispersion of them feels to them like the end of the world and no reason to go on. It's difficult to know for sure, but the way he wants her to conform, the way he wants her to protect him at all costs, the way he wants her isolated, and the sound of those texts is really not looking right.
Although, it DOES make sense for him to worry a lot about his image being a star on the rise and working for disney, especially after seeing what happened to Johnny Depp.
It also makes sense that he would want her to stay home if she was a party girl. For one thing it doesn't reflect well on him as a man that his girl is dancing in clubs letting random dudes rub all over her. It doesn't look good for him if she getting drunk and acting the fool, as drunk people almost always do. This could also explain him wanting her to conform.
Unhealthy relationship for sure, and I need more info before I can know for sure what's what, but it's not looking good for majors.
So if he doesn't kill himself it's gaslighting and if he does kill himself then it's sincere?
@@FlappyBelly ummmm no.
Y'all hella late. Keep up! They just released the surveillance footage of her chasing him and the 911 called he made when she apparently attempted suicide.
He sounds like a narcissist to me!
I do believe Amber Heart hurt the women cause as I feel u were tending to be on majors side in the first video, at least the way you talked about it was not that impartial in my opinion. Now a little less. The texts from him were really bad, and maybe he never hit her before like she said, but he could have hurt her in other manner, a bad push, throwing something... I can't see how he's not the cause of her injury they are talking about in the texts with the exchange they had
I'm sure that is not true. She was pretty impartial and made comments according to the information she had, as at that point each of her videos. For example, the video outside the bar, with the hair fluffing... that would definitely make her comments bring out doubt.
I think you might find the lens with which you are veiwing this trail, even before it's start, may make it seem like she is being biased. To be fair, there hasnt been strong evidence to support the prosecution s story except now for these texts, hence your feeling it's getting more balanced.
@DaniDoesLaw is doing great coverage from inside the court room, with recaps on twitter. Really helps paint a picture on the vibe on the inside.
Today is day 10 of the trial; why are you so behind? Were the texts redacted for context or straight forward. I listened to the 911 call today and it seems that he was in fact arrested when he did call 911 in fear for her life. If I’m wrong I would like to be corrected
You are correct. No idea why this person is so behind. That conversation was heavily redacted and the media just focused on the single text to make him look bad. The cops testified yesterday and are showing they didn’t follow protocol. Jabbari was lying.
It's Day 10 if you count jury selection, which I'm not counting. I'm behind a couple days because I was traveling last week.
Lol, y'all are strict... I'm sure she'll upload her perspective soon. Based on the quality of her analysis/ editing, these videos probably take time to make.
The 👮 cop lying
Very thoughtful, neutral analysis. Following.
I really like your unbiased opinion I’ll be watching all of your videos ❤
I can't help but compare the situation to myself I did it multiple white women. I did one where we got into an argument in public and she was grabbing me and like pretty much attacking me. I told her that it's not a good look that everyone looking is going to see it a black guy attacking a white girl even though she's the one chasing me. She thought I was crazy to think that and now look at what happened to Jonathan majors
Both been acting a fool. This is how they get down. He did not abuse her in this case situation.
One thing i hate. When you are responding to bad people behavior. So people call you bad too.
Here's the thing and this is where many are confused. Many following this case are MCU fans, no one thinks he's going to jail due to these text, the question many have is do these text hurt his career as far as his role as Kang in the MCU!
So you were there or...?
Truth be told those text messages mean nothing watch the video of her chasing him for almost a two blocks and then tell me that it makes sense that somehow he assaulted her but she's chasing him
But when they rewound it it was him chasing her
🥇
Also WHAT… admonishing her for not hugging him?!?!
Yes, he needs love too. He probably comforted her many times in the past.

Day5? You may be busy, but Day10 has passed.
Only if you count the days choosing the jury
She counts from when opening arguments were made and she is also a bit behind because she didn't post over the weekend to capture Friday.
The man is innocent. As usual.
you obv live in a parallel universe where women commit more criminal acts than men ... "as usual" my a$s
6:32 When you said "Whether or not you believe" is a f*cked up thing to say, because you're basically taking away the Truth, Facts, Statistics, Data, etc... about how Jonathan Majors and many Black Men feel & actually dealt with when it comes to the police in the U.S.!!!
If this was the other way around and Jabbari would've made a statement about her feelings when it comes to women being oppressed and there're historical factors that'll easily back her up, would you still say "Whether you believe or not"?
This isn't about intention or unintention, because that doesn't excuse what Jonathan Majors said about the historical factors when it comes to Black Men and the Police just got dismiss and/or downplayed like it doesn't mean anything!! That's why people who can't relate to certain serious situations get themselves into an altercation without doing research and having a proper understanding of someone's feelings!!
Just like the White Woman who claims she's not racist, but to the Black Man who was bird watching that she's going to call the police and tell them that a Black Man is threatening her life, when he corrected her about having a leash on her dog, which was the part of the rules at the park!! 🤬🤦🏾♂️🤷🏾♂️
Wut?
@@JesseDBaker 😐
@@JesseDBakerwhite woman have a long history of falsely accusing black men of being sexually inappropriate. Tulsa, rosewood Emmitt till etc
I think we can admit that it's a fucked up thing to say while also seeing his POV that black people aren't treated fairly by law enforcement which can explain his actions.
💯💯
Even if he’s found not guilty, they’ve made him look bad enough that studios won’t touch him. Unfortunately, he’s done either way.
You can't say suicide or kill myself on CZcams?
Ooooo this sounds very bad for him. How awful for her to be dissuaded from seeking medical attention and guilt tripped to “protect us” aka protect me. No matter if he desperately felt like his life would be over and that he would have urges to unalive himself, he communicated that to her conditionally related to her seeing a sexual text from another woman and saying “I need love to.” Sounds like kind of gaslighting her into believing that his behavior is reasonable. It feels like him side stepping potential infidelity by playing the victim about how hard this is for him. Disgusting. These text messages have me leaning strongly to him most likely abusing her and being the cause of her injuries. He would have no worries about her seeking medical care if he truly thought she fell and it had nothing to do with him. In fact a living concerned partner should encourage her to seek medical care. Heartbreaking.
It's funny how with all the inconsistencies on jabaris side . Women be silent
How did u come up with all of that from a redacted text thread, this is exactly why the outlets ran with that smh sad, Put a narrative out and you females get to fill it with your own opinion. Nothing consistent.
100% And many are saying these text are irrelevant an don't look bad all because they want him to be be in some Marvel movies, so she's automatically the bad one, plotting against him smh. He rather her suffer from injury than get medical attention, just toxic. If these text were her saying this to him, they wouldn't be quick to dismiss it. but he's the movie star, so I expect people to be bias.
This reads more like what you wish would happen, than the actual reality. From the evidence, it's clear that Grace is an inconsistent liar.
But he also called the police when he thought she was potentially hurt so...that's in direct conflict with all that you wrote. Also, hard to know the contexts of those texts when so much is redacted
To me, those texts seem like he is scared of what she is going to say & that she may lie about the situation so he’s cautioning her against it out of fear. Majors could not want her to talk to the police about it even if she caused her own injuries out of protection for both he & her. As a public figure, I can see how he wouldn’t want any information about his toxic relationship being leaked to the press or a police investigation unfolding even if Jabari was the aggressor. They obviously wouldn’t be able to stay in this toxic relationship if police get involved. There’s not enough context to know what is actually going on in this particular incident. This seems like a very toxic relationship for both individuals but I can’t see how Majors is found guilty beyond reasonable doubt. Jabari seems like the aggressor in that March 2023 footage.
You're obviously siding with the defence in this trial. You try to make it out that those texts aren't damning but you fail to properly address the three major points, 1) Majors' obvious attempt to dissuade Grace from going to the hospital for her injuries/pain 2) Jabbari's willingness to cover up the true cause of her injuries as a way to provide assurance to Major's insecurities/fears about her seeing a doctor 3) Major's failure to address point (2) which had the insinuation not been true any logical person would have pushed back on it.
Those texts are the death nail for the defence, they shot themselves in the foot with it because even if Majors isn't guilty of what he is being accused of on the night in question and this is perfectly evident to the jury they will still find him guilty because of what he obviously did on a different incident.
Big big big wins for prosecution. I hated hearing those texts. It makes me feels concerned about the ways that her behavior was potentially modified through pressure, manipulative, and forceful ways and that he almost put his own emotional and physical needs before her and gaslighted her into him being a victim. He told her to “protect us” and not seek medical care and in this discussion brought up his own urges to unalive himself which seems to possibly either be intended to or have the consequence of dissuading her for attending to her own needs. Awful. I’m definitely leaning healing towards him abusing her.
It's a big swing and a miss for the prosecution actually. Hearing those texts did nothing for me. They're from an unrelated incident, and with the evidence from this case we're following, they have no bearings - all it shows is that Grace was a calculating, deceitful and unloving partner, who was not able to see the big picture. I am definitely leaning towards her manipulating him and being an opportunistic liar.
Texts without context mean nothing. That's like taking rap lyrics and using it in trial. I need to read ALL not just the part the prosecution wants me to read to evoke emotion. You seem easily duped if you fell for that
Big win? Completely disagree. Big wins are obvious. Prosecution is muddying the water hoping the jury reacts emotionally like you.
My question is are you focused on all the evidence? It just seems like you're just focused on the redacted text messages. She did take the stand and said he had never hit her before that night.
People can and do die from head injuries, but his precious reputation and career were more important to him.
😂 You Are Not Even Reading Out The Full Text Messages That Im Sure Everyone Has Access To , And You Are Not Aware Of The Situation Of Her Ex-Boyfriend Actually “Un-Aliving” Hisself And This Is Trauma She Causes From Being In Relationship With Her, So Obviously Its Nothing Manipulative Majors Is Doing You’re So Quick To Speculate On Majors Being Manipulative When Its An Real Life Thing When You’re In Love With A Person Like this Especially Considering The Fact Of His Success In Being A Superstar In Movies, She’s The One Who Is Manipulating Him And Stripping Him Of His Career. #CarryOn #BeBlessed 😅
A lot of this trial is inconsistent, do I believe Jonathan Majors is an abuser. I can’t say for sure. But there may be some issues. Rather they get help
What evidence is there that he abused her? The out of context text messages may suggest it, but she testified on the stand that he didn’t hit her on that occasion. Then there’s video evidence that she was chasing him after he supposedly injured her finger. Then video of her in a club with no visible injuries after the alleged incident. Then you have the driver testifying that she was the one abusing him and that Major’s never touched her. All this evidence that directly contradicts her and you still somehow think Major’s is guilty.
@@sirflappington2484 people keep saying the messages where out of context but it is a large reach to say it could be about anything else other her getting injured by him. But there is literally no other reason he would say “even if you do lie.” They do have reports of him throwing things. He said himself, he has a “temper”. Just because Jabari hit him first that night doesn’t mean he has never hit her first before. The text messages reak of abusive behavior.
@@FreelyCherie just because we can’t think of another reason he would say that, doesn’t mean there isn’t another reason. In addition, reak of abusive behavior is not evidence, that’s a subjective feeling. Innocent until proven guilty is the gold standard and the witness that say they saw no injuries on her, and the driver that testified that she was the aggressor is much stronger evidence than the text no matter what feeling the texts gave you. Let’s assume he did cause her injury, what if she was attacking him and he pushed her away causing her to fall? It’s a good reason to be afraid of persecution but would you consider that abuse? No, it’s self defense. No other reason is just no other reason that you can think of, there can be many reasons to say that that doesn’t include abuse. In addition, jabbari herself testified he never hit her before and the incident she accused him of, the one in the car, is the only one. Therefore the messages that refer to a supposed prior incident is not up for debate since she herself said, under oath, that nothing happened.
@@sirflappington2484 I hear you. But I still feel the wording seems off. People have a right to still look at him sideways because of it. I do think that night he was innocent. But he himself said he had a “temper”, she testified that he would throw things. Those are typical signs of abuse. We never said we know for sure. The commenter said “can’t say for sure.” I’m just saying people have enough evidence to believe he might have been hitting her before this. I do believe in the actual case he is innocent.
@@FreelyCherie It’s definitely right to suspect him, it’s only logical. Even though I assume innocence, I always keep in mind the possibility he’s guilty. The problem I have is only with people that assume guilt without knowing the full story.
Edit: The original commenter said they believe him to be an abuser and that’s not just looking at him sideways. That’s assumption of guilt. Believing means having a reasonable amount of certainty and I just don’t think there’s enough evidence to believe he’s an abuser and assume he’s guilty. I think it’s perfectly fine to suspect no matter how little evidence, but not believe, belief should be limited to things that are at least likely.
The text were not damaging in context.
He is emotionally abusive. if we could prosecute that it would be great.
This is archetypal abusive boyfriend stuff. Violence followed by self flagulation and threatening self harm is extremely common and manipulative
So the texts from Grace claiming she was going to commit suicide via pills (stated specifically to get JM to the penthouse) only for the pills to not be there while she's texting her England friend and pretending to be unconscious is what, exactly?
@@ultimamage3 also incredibly toxic and manipulative. Much like Depp and Heard, this sounds like a toxic relationship where both sides bring out of the worst in eachother but one side is more violent than the other.
But it also differs from that case because the only accusations of violence are about Majors and I don't think it's looking good for him.
It's a wrap for him
I think you need to do a collab with @chillmonger
