In a recent development in the domestic violence trial of actor Jonathan Majors, the judge ruled that previously sealed text messages related to a separate incident in September 2022 could be revealed to the jury. The texts, which were read out in court, shed new light on the dynamics of the relationship between Majors and his accuser, Grace Jabbari.

The unsealed text messages, which were presented as evidence, appeared to show Majors discouraging Jabbari from seeking medical treatment for her injuries. However, Judge Michael Gaffey clarified that the specifics of what happened in September will not be allowed into evidence.

Jabbari read out the first unsealed text she received from Majors, in which he cautioned her about the potential consequences of going to the hospital. He expressed concerns that seeking medical help could lead to an investigation, even if she lied about what happened. Overwhelmed, Jabbari broke down in tears while reading her response, which indicated she would tell the doctor that she simply bumped her head.

Another text from Majors expressed his desire to be with Jabbari and his emotional struggles, including thoughts of suicide. He described himself as a "monster" and a "horrible man" who was incapable of love. In response, Jabbari expressed her love for him and apologized for not hugging him that morning.

Majors is facing charges of two counts of misdemeanor assault and two counts of harassment for allegedly assaulting Jabbari in March. The prosecution alleges that Majors twisted Jabbari's arm and hit her face, resulting in injuries such as a fractured finger and a cut behind her ear. On the other hand, the defense claims that Jabbari was the one who assaulted Majors.

During cross-examination, the defense questioned Jabbari repeatedly about why she did not disclose the details of the alleged assault to first responders and medical professionals. Jabbari explained that she was afraid Majors could hear her conversations with them and was concerned about the consequences. The defense also played body-camera footage which made Jabbari visibly upset.

The judge deemed the unsealed texts as important context to understand Jabbari's reluctance to disclose information about the alleged assault back in March. The prosecution questioned Jabbari about her initial statements to medical professionals, where she claimed not to know how she got injured. Jabbari admitted that she was scared of the consequences and wanted to protect Majors.

The unsealed text messages provide the jury with insight into the complex dynamics of the relationship between Majors and Jabbari. The trial continues as both the prosecution and the defense present their arguments and evidence in court.
