Melvin Guillard is facing a felony assault charge from 2017, in addition to four felony charges from two separate incidents this year, MMA Fighting has learned.
The mixed martial arts veteran is being accused of breaking a former friend’s orbital bone in a brutal beatdown in September 2017, per an affidavit obtained from the Jefferson (Colo.) County District Attorney’s Office. Guillard is being charged with second-degree assault and a violent crime count, which is a potential sentence enhancer in Colorado.
Per the incident report from the Lakewood Police Department, Jeffery Ortega said he and Guillard got into an argument outside Ortega’s home on Sept.
