After pleading no contest to one count of misdemeanor disorderly conduct UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones has been ordered to observe 90 days of probation. That count is in relation to a criminal complaint that was filed against Jones on April 23rd.
Jones had originally been charged with a count of misdemeanor battery after he was accused of inappropriate touching by a strip club employee. In August KRQE News 13 in Albuquerque, NM released police body cam footage showing investigators questioning the employee. In that tape the employee states the following:
"Jon, like, put his arm around here or something , pretty tight, and I was like, oh you’re going to put me in a choke hold.
I got out of the thing, and as soon as I did that, he just like picked me up and you know, flipped me over whatever, and just started rough housing with me.
The issue is that when he put me back down over by the bar, he like smacked my p****.
The whole situation is so complicated. I’m not really sure what to say. This person gets away with f****** everything.
At one point, he had me sit on his lap and stuff, and then he pulled me on his lap. When I was sitting on his lap, he started kissing on my neck and all this s***, and they’re not supposed to do that."
