The trial, which began on December 4, stems from a March 25th domestic dispute involving Majors – who plays a villain in the Marvel cinematic universe – and his former girlfriend, Grace Jabbari.
Prosecutors alleged Majors “didn’t hesitate to use physical violence” against Jabbari in the March dispute when he grabbed Jabbari’s right hand, twisted her arm behind her back and then “struck a blow” to her head.
