Police Have Evidence to Arrest Jonathan Majors’ Accuser: Report
THE PLOT THICKENS
New York police have reportedly found evidence to arrest the woman who accused Marvel actor Jonathan Majors of assault, according to The New York Times. Citing three sources, the newspaper reported that police have determined that the 30-year-old woman attacked Majors herself and has evidence that could be used to arrest her. Majors was arrested March 25 after the woman alleged the actor assaulted her during a Manhattan taxi ride. Majors’ lawyer, Priya Chaudhry, previously told The Daily Beast that her client is innocent and that the case is a “witch hunt against Jonathan Majors, driven by baseless claims.” Last week, Majors filed a cross-complaint against his accuser, The Messenger reported. Also last week, the Times reported, police issued an I-card for Majors’ accuser. Unlike an arrest warrant, an I-card is usually signed by a judge but alerts officers internally that there is probable cause to arrest an individual. A lawyer for the accuser, Brad Edwards, told the paper that there is no reason to arrest his client and that he has “seen nothing reliable indicating that any agency has developed a different opinion.”
