Lawyer for Jonathan Majors shares alleged assault victim's texts in defense
Text messages released by Jonathan Majors' lawyers in an attempt to clear his name of assault charges have instead raised concerns about domestic abuse and self-blame. The messages show the alleged victim blaming herself for the incident and denying the strangulation charges, but not denying that a physical altercation occurred. Many are pointing out that the messages suggest the woman was a victim of domestic abuse, as self-blame is common in such cases. The messages also reveal that the woman was hospitalized and given information on strangulation, indicating the severity of her injuries. The texts have sparked an important discussion on domestic abuse, but some are still trying to claim that they prove Majors' innocence or that the woman is the abuser.
