hammerva Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Still doesn't look good for Jones. Fact is that we know he hit a car with a pregnant woman and they are still looking for him. Unless it happened in the last 5 hours why are still looking for him is rather shady I think the cocaine rumor is out of the picture. That is probably more important to Dana than this whole "sought for questioning" stuff unfortunately Okay to be fair we don't know if he actually "hit" someone we just know he was there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 The UFC statement via the official website by way of Dave Sholler's Twitter "We are aware that the Albuquerque Police Department is interested in speaking to Jon Jones regarding his possible involvement in a motor vehicle accident. We are in the process of gathering facts and will reserve further comment until more information is available." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Where does the cocaine come in at? Bloodstain Lane, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Where does the cocaine come in at? Bloodstain Lane, I believe. Yeah, I get that much since I posted the tweet from FRB who in turn got it from BSL or whomever. However, why would you say/tweet something about cocaine unless he was apprehended with the substance? Either his source is psychic, there is white powdery stuff laying in the middle of the street, or the source got some real bad intel. If I was composing a tweet with that type of info, I would leave out the part that would probably get me into a shitload of legal drama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scizzy Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 My impression is that he's looking at a misdemeanor and I can't imagine UFC hitting him with anything beyond a token fine for that. What a lucky guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Wilson Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 I don't understand our legal system sometimes. I don't see how a hit and run causing injuries can ever just be a misdemeanor. That just encourages anyone that wrecks into a car and is under the influence of anything to run like hell, less punishment that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Brett Okamoto @bokamotoESPN now4 seconds ago Spoke with legal expert on alleged Jones H+R. If it can be proven he was under influence, that's very, very bad for him. Brett Okamoto @bokamotoESPN 4s4 seconds ago If Jones is charged with felony (expected) and he settles with victim, he can essentially avoid jail time. Brett Okamoto @bokamotoESPN 33s33 seconds ago The under the influence part is critical, since he pled guilty to DWI three years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Yeah I put the edit to be fair Apparently the woman only had "minor injuries".

Lawful Metal Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 unless they have an eyewitness that can put him behind the wheel, they can't do shit. Jones should talk to a competent lawyer and not talk to anyone else. They'll have to dismiss. If he admits that he was driving or, worse, admits to being under the influence, he can dig himself a hole. But if he just shuts the hell up, they ain't got shit.
