Prosecutors also introduced a series of texts into evidence, which could prove damaging to Majors’ reputation, as they brought about several alleged incidents that happened during the course of between Majors and Jabbari’s relationship. They alleged a pattern of abuse, which they said explained why Jabbari had not immediately told police officers that Majors had caused the injuries.
In one of the texts, sent between Majors and Jabbari in September 2022, Majors appeared to dissuade Jabbari from seeking medical attention for an injury (how she sustained the injury was not discussed). “They will ask you questions, and as I don’t think you actually protect us, it could lead to an investigation even if you do lie and they suspect something,” Majors wrote.
These texts were initially deemed inadmissible but then were able to be shown by prosecutors to jury members following a line of cross-examination questions from Majors’ defense team that Judge Michael Gaffey said “lacked specificity.”
I said at the time that having those texts from September 2022 being brought into evidence would fuck him up because it insinuated some prior abuse at face value. His dumbass defense team dropped the ball as originally they weren't even admissible into evidence till they fucked up their cross examination on Jabbari.
I remember they were trying to make it out that why didn't she tell the cops initially Majors assaulted her and later changed her story etc. THE TEXTS CAME INTO PLAY BECAUSE IT SHOWED SHE HAD LIED IN THE PAST OR WAS WILLING TO DO SO TO PROTECT HIM...HENCE THE PATTERN ESTABLISHING SMDH
