Shedding light. Here’s a refresher of Jonathan Majors’s texts as his first interview with ABC News airs after his conviction.

Actor Jonathan Majors was found guilty of reckless assault in the third degree and guilty of harassment against his ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari. He faces the possibility of a sentence of up to one year in prison. Sentencing is scheduled for February 6. On two other charges, he was found not guilty of intentional assault in the third degree and not guilty of aggravated harassment in the second degree.

Ross Kramer, an attorney for Jabbari, said they were “gratified” by the guilty verdict. “We are gratified to see justice served by today’s guilty verdict,” the statement read, per The Hollywood Reporter. “Ms. Jabbari testified publicly and truthfully, even though reliving these traumatic events on the witness stand was obviously painful. We are grateful to the jurors and the Judge for their attention and patience, and to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office for their hard work and support.” 

“Ms. Jabbari’s resolve to see this case through to the end demonstrates her tremendous strength and resilience. Unfortunately, for every survivor like Ms. Jabbari who comes forward to hold their abuser accountable, there are many others who believe that they cannot. We hope that her actions will inspire other survivors to speak their truth and seek justice,” Kramer’s statement added.

Majors was arrested Saturday morning March 25, 2023, in Manhattan, New York after a 911 call on suspicion of strangulation, assault, and harassment. The victim claims the defendant did “strike her about the face with an open hand, causing substantial pain and a laceration behind her ear,” according to the Manhattan DA’s office.

The woman was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries to her head and neck according to NYPD. She was in stable condition as of Sunday morning, March 26, 2023. That day, Majors was arraigned on several assault and harassment charges Sunday, the Manhattan DA’s office told CNN. On December 18, 2023, Majors’ guilty verdict was handed down by a six-person jury after around four hours of deliberation.

The texts and voice message are considered Molineux evidence in court and were obtained by Variety and People. The New York State Unified Court System define the evidence as “conduct that is inextricably interwoven with the charged acts” and which may “provide necessary background information or explanation.” The evidence was released to the public in December 2023.
