Jon Jones Legal Team Possibly Setting Up A Plea Deal In Hit & Run Case

Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones is alleged to be involved in a hit and run car accident back in April of this year. A crime that resulted in the UFC stripping him of the light heavyweight title and suspending him indefinitely.

Tanner Tixier, who is the spokesperson for the local police department said that pregnant women, who Jones allegedly hit in the incident suffered a broken arm. Jones now faces felony charges.

An off-duty police officer stated in an interview at the time that the suspect (who is alleged to be Jon Jones), ran back to the crash site and stuffed cash in his pants. The suspect then ran off again from the crash site.

Jones legal team could be positioning him for a plea deal in Bernalillo County Second Judicial District Court, according to the new court documents being updated. The document of the case is coming to Brown’s court “on the stipulation of the parties for the entry of a pre-indictment plea.”

Jones does not have to give a plea unless he is indicted by a grand jury.

The prosecutors had until June to decide if this case will go to a grand jury, but they never decided officially.
