Patriots' Jack Jones pleads not guilty to weapon charges, attorney fights back.
Jack Jones' attorney, Rosemary Scapicchio, defended her client against firearms-related charges, claiming that criticism of Jones' alleged actions was racist and unfounded. She accused social media and the media of labeling Jones a "thug" without evidence and suggested that the institutional racism in the court system was to blame. Scapicchio's defense of Jones may have boxed the Patriots into a corner, as firing him could lead to accusations of throwing a young, yet-to-be convicted Black man under the bus. However, Jones' defense may be challenged by evidence in the police report, including DNA samples and social media activity.
