The Jon Jones traffic violations saga just took another interesting turn.
This time, however, it could work in the favor of “Bones,” as the police officer who pulled him over a few weeks ago and cited him several times for an alleged drag race is the focal point of several complaints from citizens in the Albuquerque, New Mexico area.
Jones took to Instagram to share a small clip of the local news showing that Officer Brown is actually being sued by another person for racial profiling:
Not a good look, Officer Brown.
Jones has maintained he did nothing wrong that fateful night in which he and the lawman in question got in a heated verbal argument. Jones was visibly upset, seeing as how his latest traffic infraction violated his probation and terms of a recent deferral sentence.
Something that earned him a 48-hour stint in jail.
Nevertheless, Jones will have his day in court on May 11, 2016 to prove his innocence. And thanks to this latest development, things are looking good for the former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Light Heavyweight champion of the world.
Jones is lined up to face Ovince Saint Preux for the interim light heavyweight title at UFC 197 on April 23, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada. For more on that bout click here and here.
