The UFC Heavyweight Champion, John Jones, no longer faces an accident in February, in which he was accused of escaping from the scene of the accident and threatening a police officer.
On Tuesday, the Prosecutor’s Prosecutor’s Office in New Mexico dropped all charges against Jones, noting that “it was a reason for the defendant’s belief that the defendant was a reliable excuse.” In one of the extraordinary details, the charges were actually brought against Jones twice because of a “written error”, which led to the rejection of multiple issues regarding one accident.
Jones wrote on Tuesday: “I want to start by thanking the provincial lawyer’s office for carefully reviewing the facts and finally exchanged me,” Jones wrote on Tuesday. “I always believed in the importance of truth and fairness, and I am grateful because the evidence talked about itself. The simple truth is: I was never there. I never left my house that night, and all the evidence has proven that.”
The charges against Jones from a car accident on February 21 in Jones’s birthplace in Albukirk stems. The police responded to a half -naked woman in the car claiming that Jones was driving his car and left.
Bodycam shots showed that the woman later called a man who said Jones, who then made the verbal threats of the officer at the scene. In June, Johns seemed to scatter himself as a man on the phone, when he wrote and then deleted it from X, “Who was on the phone with me at the beginning, the timeline has a different time. By the time I was working on the phone, it was a completely different conversation. I was already in my bone and defensive.”
Jones dealt with many legal issues in his career. He was arrested and charged with a felony in 2015 after he fled from the place of a 25 -year -old collision. He acknowledged that he was guilty of leaving an accident and sentenced him to prison.
Jones also admitted that he was guilty of DWI charges in 2012 in New York and in 2020 in New Mexico.
Jones is the greatest large -scale fighter of all time, retired from competition earlier this year instead of trying to unify his heavy title against temporary champion Tom Asbinal. He soon announced that he intends to get out of retirement, hoping to compete for the planned event at UFC at the White House in July 2026.
