    As a man, never ever emotionally react to a woman for any reason. The first time she gets physical with you, leave and never return. Your future is on the line.

    My heart goes out to him. I’ve seen it first hand with my brother and his girlfriend. She was the abuser from all her insecurities yet he was arrested for protecting himself, couldn’t see his daughter, go into his own home, or use his own car. Sad to see how often this happens to men trapped in situations like this where they both stay and eventually courts get involved. Hope everything turns around for him. He has so much talent and I’d love to still see him on the screen.

    Sentenced for an unintentional assault. And she walks free for an intentional one. Unbelievable
  • @swamp345
    That woman chased him down on camera and attacked him. He defends himself and he goes to jail? This country will never change.

    I been in this situation before, my life was completely ruined from a lie, public embarrassment, lost scholarships and suddenly the young lady decided to tell the truth and assault charges dropped. That changed me so much, a women can easily destroy a man with a lie and a fear tears. Women have all the power in the legal systems if they cry the right tune.

    This man was railroaded. He has a temper, just as myself and many other men. And yet he had the presence of mind to runaway from this woman. She sounds like a nightmare. And boy did she go after him hard. I feel horrible for him. This is a tragedy.
  • @danieladams1752
    Are we as a public going to let this happen? We literally saw her on video assaulting him yet she walks free and he’s convicted? I think it’s time we do something.
  • Isn't it wild that a woman comes home drunk, and the first thing she thinks of is to record him for scolding her for showing up to his house drunk. And the thing people get out of that is that he's controlling instead of he's a man that is trying to set boundaries so he can be successful in life. Yet if the roles were reversed, the man would be a bum, and everyone would still be on the woman's side. If this is equality y'all can keep it

    Huge respect to Disney/ABC for letting Jonathan tell his side of the story. Jonathan Majors is a once in a generational talent. Disney has to rehire him, how can you just recast a role that Majors so legendarily acted? It doesn’t make sense, he has long since paid his dues. Marvel/Disney rehire this man!

    I've never heard of an alleged abuser running away from the woman he supposedly abused... furthermore, I've never heard of a woman who got her finger broken, then decided to go party and clubbing that same night, and then woke up in the morning to then cry that her boyfriend broke her finger, after a full night out of shaking her ass with a "broken finger." Smh 🤦🏾
  • @marcobodt9750
    So Majors' pictures of his injuries from Jabari were "deemed inadmissible" in court, but her injuries were valid? How???
  • I hope his career isn't over. The guy is incredibly talented and I don't see evidence that he's done anything wrong.
  • @aprilstone31
    He owned his part in their toxic relationship but it definitely didn’t rise to the level of abuse on his part. He shouldn’t lose his career over a bad relationship. That’s insane.
  • @KJCK4
    We live in a world where a black man has to run 5 blocks late at night, where he calls the police because he’s scared that his ex took her own life and this is what happens….sad time and sad world we live in
  • @astrofreq
    I worked with Jonathan on a film called Hostiles and he was always so kind when I would put a wire on him. I truly wish him the best.
  • @N8tiv_Hues
    The literally ruined this man for dealing with a toxic relationship. Never forgetting this
