The trial addressed four alleged crimes, resulting in separate verdicts, with Majors being cleared of third-degree intentional assault and second-degree aggravated harassment. The actor was detained in March this year, leading other women to denounce him for violence.
Police identified signs of aggression, culminating in Majors’ arrest after finding visible injuries on the body of his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, including a fractured finger and an ear wound. Majors initially pleaded not guilty to all charges. The actor’s lawyer stated that the situation resulted from an “emotional crisis” on the part of the woman, mentioning that she sent an apology to the actor and admitted responsibility for the attacks.
