"Jones (28-1 MMA, 22-1 UFC) had been playing a cat-and-mouse game with interim champion Tom Aspinall, who has been elevated to undisputed champion. After White's announcement at the UFC on ABC 8 post-fight news conference, Jones posted a message saying he was leaving "after a lot of reflection." (His published statement, when run through multiple artificial intelligence detectors, came back repeatedly as likely produced by AI, save for a section thanking specific UFC members, his family, and his well-publicized Christian faith.)

But not long after that post, news broke online from the Albuquerque Journal, the largest news outlet in the city Jones has lived and trained in for years, that Jones once again is in legal trouble.
According to the report, there is a criminal summons accusing Jones of leaving the scene of an accident. He is scheduled for a bond arraignment July 24, the Journal reported.

Jones did not mention his latest legal issue in his retirement statement, and White did not mention it when he announced Jones was retired. Jones is the first fighter in UFC history to twice be stripped of titles – and the only one to be stripped three times.
The details of the criminal complaint reported by the Journal include accusations that Jones left the scene of a crash with a half-naked and intoxicated woman in the car, and when reached by phone, a man thought to be Jones made "allusions to violence" to multiple police officials.

After the crash, according to the police complaint, Jones called the woman's phone more than a dozen times and also sent text messages. The woman said she drank at Jones' house and took mushrooms there, then next recalled being in a car crash after Jones allegedly was driving.

He had a DWI conviction in 2012. In 2015, he failed a drug test for cocaine – but a loophole kept him from being suspended for it, and he passed a second test. Later that year, Jones was arrested for a felony hit-and-run involving a pregnant woman. He pled guilty to leaving the scene of an accident. He had another DWI in 2020 that came with gun charges, later dropped in a plea deal, in the early days of the COVID pandemic.

The first time Jones was stripped of a title was for his hit-and-run while he was light heavyweight champion. The second was for his first doping violation the following year. In a rematch win over Daniel Cormier in 2017, he failed a drug test for steroids in California and was suspended again – and stripped of a title again.

In 2019, he pled no contest to charges of battery against a strip club waitress. In 2021, several weeks after a domestic violence arrest in Las Vegas the night after he went into the UFC Hall of Fame, his longtime team at JacksonWink MMA in Albuquerque gave him the boot and no longer wanted to be associated with him. He later said he was done with alcohol for good. He was sentenced to anger management classes in 2024 after an alleged altercation with a drug sample collection agent."

The Albuquerque Journal first reported that the charges stem from a car accident where a woman was found in the front passenger seat of one of the vehicles involved and she was “exhibiting signs of significant intoxication and lacking clothing from the waist down.”

The woman reportedly told police Jones was the driver of the vehicle, but he fled the scene on foot. She then called Jones on the phone, and a police service aide claimed the person on the phone, who they believed to be Jones, “appeared to be heavily intoxicated and made statements implying his capacity to employ lethal force through third parties.”

When a police officer spoke to Jones, he allegedly made “allusions to violence” as well but never answered directly when asked to identify himself.

Police say they eventually interviewed Jones in person a few days later, and he claimed the woman found in the car had left his house earlier in the day and was intoxicated. Jones claimed she called him after getting in the crash, and the person she handed the phone to “immediately opened the conversations with unprofessional language, which led him to doubt the legitimacy of the individual’s claim.”

The woman involved in the accident told police she allegedly drank alcohol and consumed mushrooms at Jones’ house and stated she needed to change clothes, but “her next recollection was being at the scene of a traffic accident.” She told police the last person she remembered driving her vehicle was Jones.

The police report states Jones called the woman’s phone a total of 13 times from the time of the crash until the next morning, and he also sent her text messages as well.

This is far from the first time Jones has found himself in legal trouble

Came back from his gay phase in wherever and got all fucked up in ABQ with some chick/dude and got busted being a D bag behind the wheel...again.

This Fool ain't been right for 15-20 years...UFC only enabled and allowed his D Bag Behavior the last decades or so
Has a family and kids but the article mentions nothing of that? What a total POS.

Dana must feel like such a D bag having to stand up for this guy the last 10 years
Not that he would publicly admit it, he is being paid to sweep under the rug

fucking brilliant how clearly true this is; it has so many Jon Jones calling cards:

• intoxication
• promiscuity
• terrible driving
• partial nudity
• cowardly and futile attempt to escape
• threats, to stifle challenge
• no respect for the law
• extreme entitlement and narcissicism
• excessive phone use

only things missed:

• drug paraphernalia
• strippers
• injuries to member(s) of the public

things which could still follow:

• crying family
• crying, handcuffed Jon
• appeals to God
• empty promises

Why the ABQ police always trying a frame job?
