Jonathan Majors Sentencing: Marvel Star Avoids Jai News

Entertainment Entertainment Latest News,Entertainment Entertainment Headlines

The actor faced a maximum sentence of 364 days in jail but the Manhattan district attorney's office did not seek jail time.

Monday, April 8, 2024 2:30PMJonathan Majors, whose promising acting career stalled after a domestic violence conviction in New York, was sentenced Monday to domestic violence programming after the judge decided "jail is not necessary."

Manhattan Criminal Court Judge Michael Gaffey handed down the sentence after Majors was found guilty late last year of assaulting his then-girlfriend Grace Jabbari, who delivered a victim impact statement in which she asserted Majors "remains a danger to others." Majors faced a maximum sentence of 364 days in jail but the Manhattan district attorney's office did not seek jail time. Instead, prosecutor Kelli Galaway said domestic violence programming along with an order of protection against Jabbari would suffice.

"This has been the most challenging year of Mr. Majors' life," Chaudhry said. "He promises to complete whatever program the court orders with an open heart." She added "We are optimistic Mr. Majors will work in the film industry again soon."
