Mahomes’ Lawyer: “A Short Clip Of Any Video Does Not Provide Proper Context”
“We have provided law enforcement with the tools and evidence they need to evaluate the claims against Jackson,” it read. “Every interaction between people needs to be placed in the proper context. Releasing a short clip of any video does not provide proper context. We have faith in the process and look forward to a swift resolution of the matter.”
Jackson’s Arraignment Reportedly Set For May 5
Jackson’s arraignment hearing has been scheduled for Friday, May 5, at 1:30 p.m., the outlet reports.
Jackson is said to have shoved a 19-year-old male waiter several times before allegedly forcibly kissing Aspen Vaughn, who owns the Aspens Restaurant where the incident took place.
A 49-second clip of the alleged sexual assault has already garnered over 1.3 million views.
Owner Says She Did Not Welcome Jackson’s Advances
Vaughn has said she believes Jackson was intoxicated but adds she claims she warned Mahomes about his unwanted advances.
Hours before the alleged forced kisses, one of Vaughn’s wait staff alleges Jackson shoved him out of the private room where he and his entourage were dining in. The employee alleges it happened after smelling marijuana smoke.
Jackson reportedly is a regular at the establishment and even knows the owner’s step-daughter, according to Vaughn.
