Jonathan Majors’ girlfriend recants assault allegations.
Actor Jonathan Majors, known for his role as Kang the Conqueror in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, was arrested on assault charges after his girlfriend went to the police accusing him of assaulting her over a cell phone and putting his hands around her throat.
However, Majors’ criminal defense attorney Priya Chaudhry has stated that her client is the victim of a domestic altercation for which he was arrested.
Chaudhry has said that there is video footage and witness testimony that exonerates Majors and that the accuser has written two statements recanting her allegations.
The incident occurred on Saturday morning in the Chelsea area of Manhattan, and the police were called to the scene at 11:14 a.m.
According to an NYPD statement, the victim informed the police that she had been assaulted by a 33-year-old male, who was later identified as Majors.
She claimed that he had struck her about the face with an open hand, causing substantial pain and a laceration behind her ear.
She also alleged that he had put his hands around her neck, causing swelling, bruising, and substantial pain to her neck and hand.
The victim had visible injuries, including a laceration behind her ear, redness, and marks on her face.
Majors was taken into custody without incident and was released on his own recognizance. He is expected to return to a Manhattan courtroom in May.
Chaudhry has indicated that her team is quickly gathering and presenting evidence to the District Attorney, with the expectation that all charges will be dropped imminently.
The District Attorney has already granted a limited court-ordered protection for the alleged victim, and a full order of protection has been requested.
Majors’ spokesperson has denied any wrongdoing, saying that the actor “has done nothing wrong” and that they look forward to clearing his name.
Majors is set to star in an upcoming spin-off called “Avengers: The Kang Dynasty,” and his character is expected to appear in other movies leading up to the 2026 Secret Wars film.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been gearing up to make Kang the next major villain the Avengers will have to face.
Majors’ arrest raises questions about his continuing participation in the Marvel franchise, given that parent company Disney is known for being family-friendly.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been highly successful, raking in nearly $30 billion over the past decade and a half.
It is important to note that domestic violence is a serious issue that affects millions of people around the world.
It is essential that allegations of domestic violence are taken seriously and investigated thoroughly. It is also important to remember that everyone is innocent until proven guilty and that it is possible for false allegations to be made.
Regardless of the outcome of this case, it is important to continue to raise awareness about domestic violence and to provide support and resources for survivors.
