Last Thursday, Jon Jones was arrested on DWI and firearms charges in Albuquerque. Today, he reached a plea deal and will admit guilt in exchange for house arrest, probation, outpatient therapy, and a fine. Now, for the first time since the incident went down, Jones has broken his silence with a prepared statement released through his management.
Here is what the champ had to say.
“While we all work to understand and cope with stress and uncertainties surrounding the current state of our world, I want to express how truly disappointed I am that I have become the source of a negative headline again, especially during these trying times,” Jones said.
