Jon Jones facing new criminal charge over fleeing scene of car crash as he announces retirement
Jon Jones will retire the way he spent much of his legendary UFC career: With a legal matter hanging over him. The now-former UFC heavyweight champion announced his retirement on Saturday hours after UFC CEO Dana White told reporters in Baku that Jones was hanging up his gloves. Around the same time, Geoff Grammer of the Albuquerque Journal reported that Jones is facing a criminal summons filed Tuesday over a misdemeanor charge of leaving the scene of an accident. Uncrowned subsequently confirmed the Journal's report. Advertisement Jones has been ordered to appear in court for a bond arraignment on July 24. None of that came up in his retirement statement, in which he promised "the best is yet to come" and said he wants to "continue to contribute to the sport and inspire others in new ways." The allegations against Jon Jones According to the Journal, an Albuquerque police officer was reportedly investigating a traffic crash on Feb. 21 in which a woman was found in the passenger seat of a car "exhibiting signs of significant intoxication and lacking clothing from the waste down." The woman reportedly told police that Jones was the driver of the car and fled the scene on foot. She then called Jones and a police service aide spoke to the man on the other line, believed to be Jones. That man allegedly "appeared to be heavily intoxicated and made statements implying his capacity to employ lethal force through third parties" against the aide. Advertisement In response to the perceived threat, the aide reportedly called for a backup and a police officer spoke to the man on the phone, who allegedly made similar "allusions to violence." The man never answered direct questions about whether he was actually Jones. Jon Jones is going out the most Jon Jones way possible.

He claimed the person she handed the phone to "immediately opened the conversations with unprofessional language, which led him to doubt the legitimacy of the individual's claim." The woman reportedly told police she drank alcohol and consumed mushrooms at Jones' house and recalled needing to change her clothes there. Her next recollection was being at the scene of the traffic accident and the last person she remembered driving the car was Jones. Jones also reportedly called the woman's phone 13 times from after the crash to the following morning. Advertisement Jon Jones' retirement ended a bizarre saga That legal situation can't be definitively tied to Jones' decision to retire, but it certainly feels relevant after Jones opted to end his bizarre standoff over his potential next fight against UFC interim heavyweight champion Tom Aspinall. Jones last defended his belt against the 42-year-old Stipe Miocic last November. Since then, he has avoided the UFC's attempts to set a unification fight date against Aspinall, who looms as a potential superstar for the promotion. Seemingly with the UFC's blessing, Jones laughed off Aspinall's expectation of a long-awaited title shot. Advertisement Aspinall was finally promoted to the undisputed heavyweight champion on Saturday in light of Jones' retirement. He figures to get his first title defense soon, while Jones faces a different challenge. Jon Jones is no stranger to controversy Incredibly, this isn't even the first time a Jon Jones title reign has ended in the wake of a car crash. His first reign as UFC light heavyweight champion ended due to a hit-and-run accident that injured a pregnant woman. In that situation, Jones fled the scene on foot following the crash, only to return, grab cash from inside the vehicle, then flee again. Going only off the results of the Octagon, Jones is one of the few best answers out there for MMA's GOAT, but he has been routinely prone to allegations and controversy, with failed drug tests and contract standoffs making him an intermittent presence for the UFC in the later stages of his career.

Baltimore man sentenced to life for killing Jamal Barney, former Loyola basketball player
A Baltimore man was sentenced to life on Friday for brutally murdering former Loyola Basketball player Jamal Barney in October 2023. Dayrel McFarland will be serving a life sentence plus three years for First-Degree Murder and Deadly Weapon with Intent to Injure, according to the Office of the State's Attorney for Baltimore City. Jamal Barney, a standout Loyola basketball player Jamal Barney was a Baltimore native who attended Southwestern High School and went to Providence before transferring to Loyola University. It was at Loyola, from 2008 to 2011, that he became the Greyhounds' leading scorer in the two seasons he played, scoring 1,000 career points with two 40-point games. "Barney was from Southwestern High School and was one of the best scorers in the country," former Loyola basketball coach Jimmy Patsos said. Missing investigation Police say Barney, who was 37 years old at the time, was missing on October 1. However, family members reported that they hadn't seen or heard from him for nine days, had already filed a missing persons report, and had circulated flyers online. The family later received an anonymous message claiming that McFarland, also known as "Little D," had bashed Barney in the head with a cinder block and hid his body in a vacant home. A day later, on October 2, police responded to the 500 block of North Payson Street for reports of a suspicious death. When they entered the home, officers immediately detected a strong foul odor, according to the press release. In a second-floor bedroom, they found the body of Barney, stuffed inside a mattress covered with blankets and clothing. The body was reportedly mummified and so decomposed that the gender and race of the victim couldn't be determined, nor could a trace of blood or trauma be found. Officials believe the decomposition was accelerated by the body being stuffed inside the mattress. Investigators later observed a large hole in the right side of the bedroom wall leading to two adjoining rooms where they found blood evidence and splatter on the walls. A small section of carpet was also stained with blood, along with cinder blocks and a concrete paver. Tattoos helped identify unrecognizable body The body was later identified through Barney's tattoos by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, who ruled the victim's death a homicide by blunt force trauma to the head. McFarland, who was arrested on an outstanding warrant and questioned, initially denied murdering Barney, but admitted to having a roommate. Investigators then found a witness who told police that the defendant admitted to killing Jamal Barney by striking him in the head with the cinder block and hiding his body in a mattress on the second floor of the vacant. DNA testing of a cinderblock stained with blood linked McFarland to the scene of the crime.
