Jonathan Majors' Trial Exposed Actor's 'Pattern of Abuse,' Says D.A.: 'We Thank the Survivor'

The Creed III actor was charged with assaulting and harrasing his then girlfriend in March

Jonathan Majors' trial exposed the actor's "pattern of abuse," according to Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.

After Majors was found guilty of two charges in a split verdict, Bragg issued a statement, saying: "At the Manhattan D.A.’s Office, we are committed to centering survivors in all of our work. The evidence presented throughout this trial illustrated a cycle of psychological and emotional abuse, and escalating patterns of coercion far too common across the many intimate partner violence cases we see each and every day."

"Today, a jury determined that pattern of abuse and coercion culminated with Mr. Majors assaulting and harassing his girlfriend. We thank the jury for its service and the survivor for bravely telling her story despite having to relive her trauma on the stand," the statement added.

The Creed III actor was found guilty of two charges: misdemeanor assault in the third degree, recklessly causing physical injury, and harassment in the second degree, which is a violation. He was found not guilty of misdemeanor assault in the third degree with intent to cause physical injury and misdemeanor aggravated harassment in the second degree.

The charges stem from an alleged fight between him and his former girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, that spilled onto the streets of Chinatown in March.

The March charges put a halt to the actor’s rising stardom, which in the early part of 2023 saw Majors starring alongside Michael B. Jordan in Creed III and as the villainous Kang the Conqueror in Marvel’s Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Disney’s highly anticipated Magazine Dreams, starring Majors as an amateur bodybuilder, had even generated Oscar buzz, before the studio pulled the film from its release roster.

The more than two-week-long trial in Manhattan’s criminal court included 12 witnesses by Manhattan prosecutors and three more by the defense.

Over four days of testimony at the start of trial, Jabbari told the jury that her boyfriend of more than a year and a half had often slipped into “rage and aggression” during their relationship, and that in March they had gotten into a physical altercation, leading to his arrest.
