Twitter Reacts To Jonathan Majors Texts, Many Think Lawyers Are Making Him Look Guilty

As March began, Jonathan Majors was feeling on top of the world, thanks to the arrival of two huge projects – Ant-Man: Quantimania and Creed III – which he worked incredibly hard on. Following the latter's highly anticipated premiere, he and co-star/director Michael B. Jordan enjoyed their time in the spotlight, consistently making fans laugh (and swoon) with their antics. Unfortunately for the 33-year-old, things quickly came crashing down last weekend when he was arrested and charged with assault, among other things.

Since he was taken into custody, Majors' legal team has vehemently denied any wrongdoing on his part. On Thursday (March 30), the defence shared screenshots of texts between the actor and his alleged victim, seemingly attempting to prove his innocence. However, as many social media users are pointing out, it could be argued that the receipts only make the accused attacker look more guilty. "Please let me know you're okay when you get this," one of the messages begins. They assured me that you won't be charged. They said they had to arrest you as protocol when they saw the injuries on me and they knew we had a fight."

The anonymous woman went on to say that she was angered over the situation, and "will make sure nothing happens about this." Aside from her lengthy paragraphs, the only words that came from Majors' phone were "Did you leave the keys?" and "Goodbye, [redacted]." While they don't exactly prove or disprove anything at this point, social media is having a field day reacting to the investigation's latest update.

"Jonathan Majors' lawyer really woke up and was like, 'Let’s put out evidence that the girl did pass out and collapse and maybe people won’t ask how that happened if she says she grabbed his phone,'" one Twitter user quipped this morning. "You have to be the dumbest lawyer alive to think releasing texts from your client’s victim that have her taking the blame for injuries she received from him are evidence of his innocence instead of one of the clearest signs of domestic violence and an abusive relationship," someone else wrote. Another person added, "Jonathan Majors got his lawyer from the same place Trump got his."
