News On the Day of His Retirement Jon Jones Charged with Fleeing the Scene of an Accident in Albuquerque, NM (Update W/ Cam Footage).

[mkess101]

Any time I see Smith on a broadcast I immediately turn it off. Can't stand that guy. Jon has zero to gain by fighting Tom. Personally I hope Gane beats Tom easily and everyone starts realizing he wasn't anything special.

Hope in one hand and shit in the other. See which one fills up first, bud.

i don't think stephen a smith is a real person

he is like the utlimate algorithm depicting the avg sherdogger

opinions all day about mma, other sports, trump, politics

and he is running for president in 2028. we are gonna have a sherdogger in office.

 

[TITS]

The police just released the CCTV of Jon in response

"Nothing to see to here officer, just giving my lady friend a ride home."

 

[MRT]

Do you think that's the point I was making? That he's a knowledgeable MMA analyst?

Here's the thing: quite obviously a shit ton of people desire seeing/hearing him, or he wouldn't be the highest paid sports talk personality on earth. Now, we can say his takes suck (and largely I agree)...but do you think the UFC cares WHO tunes in and who buys the ppv's as long as the #'s are there? Stephen A has a MASSIVE following and platform. He is referencing Aspinall by name numerous times. He is essentially calling Jones a duck and there are gonna be millions of casual sports fans who minimally follow MMA that see that and have their opinion formed by it.

We have absolute idiots here (that show comical projection by accusing everyone else of being driven by emotion while seemingly in full spaz mode every post themselves) claiming Aspinall is a "nobody" etc. And it's so painfully obvious they're desperately trying to convince themselves of that. But here we have the biggest sports talking head in the world currently (albeit a really annoying one) specifically talking about Jones ducking Aspinall. It shows how delusional some people here are.

Yeah, that Smith is the highest paid guy on ESPN and has the reach that he does is an *extremely* sad comment on the average mainstream sports fan. He won't get my click...I don't care for his over-the-top clown act...

The bright side is indeed that it is mainstream attention for Tom...and both he and the UFC are going to need all the help they can get to hype his next fight, given that his next opponent won't be Jones or Francis (barring some miracle turn of events). I wouldn't be surprised if Alex gets the completely meritless crack at him, solely because he is the only potential opponent that will resonate with the wider audience.

Here we go, Sherdog is about to do a complete 180 and start acting like Stephen A is relevant in mma now that he’s said something negative about Jon Jones.

Why would Francis matter? He just headlined an event that cost way less than a UFC ppv and did under 10k buys.

What he says isn't relevant to us hardcore fans obviously. He knows little about the sport.

His opinion is relevant only in that his platform and reach are massive and he can shape the opinions of casuals that don't know better.

 

[PaulieVegas27]

I wish Stephen A. would retire. He is worthless, just SHOUTS out the most obvious opinions in a loud tone of voice to catch your attention while adding "How-evahhh" every fourth word. He must have dirt on someone to still have his job.

 

[TITS]

Let me give you the rest of the story. Jon was fingering this lady while drunk driving and wrecked the car, the end.

At least they were wearing their seatbelts.

 

[Khaosan]

Smith is gonna put hands on Jones on sight.

UFC champ Jon Jones retires, hit with another criminal charge in Albuquerque

Jon Jones, the oft-embattled Albuquerque resident considered by many to be the greatest mixed martial artist of all time, shocked the combat sports world Saturday when UFC President Dana White

www.abqjournal.com

Weird thing is that Jones was clearly doing the right thing here!
Taking care of her when all other men would just have ran from it.
But he will still get shit for doing the right thing!

 

[nonoob]

The passenger who is both drunk, on mushrooms, and has admittedly pissed themselves does not strike me at all as what one would consider "credible."

There's got to be more to the story.​

@High Test With da Best: Even a single traffic cam/private security cam would prove that, let alone one that shows him running away.

Jon will Never allow himself to ever be held accountable for his criminal actions.

While the Dana-backed ufc HW babymama-bloody-beating Jon (with his 3 traumatized kids) and Las Vegas police would likely agree...Jon Jones would have no issue with killing or disposing of anyone that he was angered by.

 

[whocares]

Meanwhile, Jones and his fans are happy he gets to go out on his own terms.

Except he didn't. He got forced to run away and look like a crumbling bitch in the process, just like his fans for the last two years trying in vain to defend his bitchassed Tomfoolery. Oh well, it's all in the record books now, don't even know why we're still talking about it.

I read the case in many sources and it likely is a petty-misdemeanor


Police used the deliberately vague phrase “a restroom incident requiring a change of clothing” because reports normally avoid graphic detail. In plain language it almost certainly means the passenger soiled or badly spilled on her pants in Jones’ bathroom—vomit, urine, menstrual leakage, etc. She therefore took her pants off, asked Jon Jones to drive her home so she could put on something clean, and left the house wearing only whatever was still on her upper body (a long shirt, hoodie, or blanket). When officers reached the crash site they noted she was “lacking clothing from the waist down,” which is exactly what the MMA-news outlets quoted from the complaint.


US law-enforcement style generally tell officers to record facts without unnecessary graphic detail — especially where victims might be embarrassed or the information is only tangentially relevant to the charge. Instead they use catch-alls like “restroom incident,” “bodily-fluid event,” or “medical episode requiring a change of clothes.”

The New Mexico complaint against Jones follows that pattern: it mentions the restroom mishap only to explain why the woman took off her pants and why she asked Jones to drive her home.

As for the bathroom, what happened is likely common real-world reasons someone suddenly needs new pants... which fits the police reports.

Incontinence from alcohol, mushrooms or both can lead to loss of bladder or bowel movement control ... mix of psilocybin and alcohol can cause nausea, diarrhea, or loss of muscle control; victims often remove soiled clothes immediately.

Vomiting that splashed heavily on lap and legs —> Reports still call this a “restroom incident”; the result is the same — pants are unwearable.

Heavy menstrual bleed-through (possible if alcohol thins blood and timing aligns) —> Officers rarely specify; they just note the clothing change.

Large-volume liquid spill (drink knocked over onto lap) which fits the vague phrasing and would not require medical detail.

Nothing in the complaint claims sexual activity or assault occurred inside the house. The incident is framed as embarrassing but under medical/accidental lens.


She likely left without pants because:

1 Jones’ house had no spare clothes her size.


2 - She wanted her own clean items from home.


3 - Psilocybin + alcohol impair reasoning; “let’s just go now” is a common impulsive response.


4 - She likely covered herself with a long hoodie, blanket or car seat jacket... officers only wrote that she lacked lower-body garments.


People generally ride home in underwear or wrapped in a coat after vomiting or incontinence incidents... it is embarrassing but not unusual in medical transports, college campuses, or bar districts. Police files document these cases with identical phrasing.


And the change-of-clothing detail showed the reason: she says Jones agreed to drive her, so he was behind the wheel. She being half naked helps police argue she was incapacitated and could not legally be the driver herself. Under New Mexico, leaving an intoxicated, half-naked passenger at a crash still satisfies the misdemeanor hit-and-run statute even if no other car was hit.


Tl;dr —> “Restroom incident requiring a change of clothing” is more than likely sanitized police shorthand for a messy bodily mishap. She removed her soiled pants, planned to ride with Jones to fetch clean ones, and wound up at a crash scene without them. The odd phrasing reflects report-writing conventions, not necessarily something sinister — but it does show her impairment and why prosecutors claim Jones had a legal duty to stay and help.

That is is officially a petty-misdemeanor, not a felony. The criminal summons filed in Bernalillo County charges him with one count of “Leaving the scene of an accident (no great bodily harm or death)” —> which New Mexico classifies at the lowest misdemeanor tier —> maximum six months in county jail, up to a $1,000 fine, and short-term licence loss. No DUI, assault or felony-level.

And not a felony because New Mexico upgrades hit-and-run to a fourth-degree felony only when the crash causes “great bodily harm or death” or to a third-degree felony if someone dies, but the complaint states the passenger did not report serious physical injury, and the other vehicle’s occupants (if any) were unhurt, so prosecutors filed the lower tier. Only new proof of serious bodily harm, impairment, or assault would push it into felony range, tho nothing in the public record hints that prosecutors saw that in investigations.

Though whatever is the truth, it must prevail.

"Handling business" is a fantastic euphemism for wanking at excessive volumes on national television.
