Allegations of Abuse Against Jonathan Majors Escalate as Additional Victims Collaborate with D.A.’s Office

According to Variety, multiple alleged abuse victims of actor Jonathan Majors have come forward and are cooperating with the Manhattan district attorney’s office.  This development follows his arrest in March on charges of strangulation, assault, and harassment.

Majors’ publicists and management firms have since cut ties with him.

Variety reached out to the D.A.’s office, and they declined to comment, and Majors’ representative did not respond to requests for comment.

When Majors was arrested, an NYPD spokesperson reported that a 30-year-old woman had been assaulted by Majors and had sustained minor injuries to her head and neck.  Majors’ attorney, Priya Chaudhry, immediately insisted that the actor “is provably the victim of an altercation with a woman he knows” and suggested the woman was having “an emotional crisis.”

Chaudhry’s husband, Andrew Bourke, serves as Majors’ crisis publicist and released a series of text messages on March 30 that he claimed were exonerating.  In the messages, the woman wrote to Majors, taking responsibility for trying to grab his phone and stressing that she had told the police “this was not an attack.” She also expressed love for Majors and assured him he would not be charged.  Later, the woman said the origin of the 911 call was due to her collapsing and passing out.
