As we all know, Manhatten prosecutors have been accusing Jonathan Majors of domestic violence claiming he grabbed his ex-girlfriend’s right hand and gave it a bone-fracturing twist during a midnight argument on a Chinatown street corner, but looks like the actor took some photos to try and prove that he was the one that was actually assaulted, according to Insider.
Majors’ lawyers are looking for Grace Jabbari’s domestic assault charges to be dropped and claim that these photos show that Majors was the victim on that night. While in his Upper East Side hotel bathroom, Majors allegedly took pictures of himself that show small scratches on his face and forearm and he also took photos of his ripped clothing. “Video shows Ms. Jabbari wildly grabbing and clawing at him, ripping off his coat buttons and tearing his coat pocket in the process,” defense lawyer Priya Chaudhry alleges of the couple’s violent, March 25 argument in new court filings and requests that the case be dropped.

Majors and his team are claiming that Jabbari broke her finger and suffered a cut to her ear during a drunken fall later that evening, while alone in his Lower Manhattan penthouse apartment. On the morning after the fight, court documents claim Majors woke up in his room at The Mark Hotel and found “his face stuck to the hotel pillow with dried blood from the large gash delivered by Ms. Jabbari’s fingernails in the car,” the defense lawyer alleges in her most recent court filing. Majors is scheduled to return to Manhattan Criminal Court, via video camera, on Friday, when a trial date may be set in Jabbari’s misdemeanor case against him. He is charged with six counts of assaulting and three counts of harassing Jabbari.
“I observed the defendant pull my right middle finger causing bruising, swelling and substantial pain to my finger,” Jabbari said in a criminal complaint filed in May against the actor.
“I further observed the defendant grab my right arm, place it behind my body, and use his hands to twist my right forearm and right middle finger,” it continues. “I further observed the defendant strike me with his hand across my right ear causing substantial pain and a laceration behind my right ear.”

Majors’ lawyer says her claims are all cap! In a previous interview he shared, “We have provided the District Attorney with irrefutable evidence that the woman is lying, including video proof showing nothing happened, especially not where she claimed,” she said. “We did this with the explicit promise from the DA that they would not ‘fix’ their case and change it as we proved the woman is lying. This is a witch hunt against Jonathan Majors, driven by baseless claims,” Chaudhry continued.
“Instead of dismissing the allegations in the face of the woman’s clear lies, the DA has adjusted the charges to match the woman’s new lies. To be clear, there are no new charges against Mr. Majors.”
