Jonathan Majors Trial: Ex-Girlfriend's Testimony Reveals Reluctance to Involve Police in Alleged Assault

In the domestic assault trial of actor Jonathan Majors, his ex-girlfriend testified that she initially didn't want to involve the police and regretted getting him in trouble. She tearfully spoke about the aftermath of the incident and revealed that Majors had warned her about trusting the police due to his concerns as a Black man. Majors called the police the next morning out of concern for her mental state. The ex-girlfriend testified that she woke up to find herself surrounded by officers and eventually told them about the injuries she sustained from Majors. She expressed feeling anxious and blamed herself for his arrest. Majors is facing three misdemeanor counts of assault and harassment and could face up to a year in prison if convicted. The trial stems from an incident in March where Majors allegedly assaulted his ex-girlfriend during a car ride. The defense argues that the allegations were fabricated.
