Chaudhry’s defense strategy centered on painting Jabbari as the aggressor on the night of the altercation, asserting that her accusations were born out of a vengeful act after Majors ended their relationship. Throughout the trial, Chaudhry vehemently contested Jabbari’s credibility, labeling her statements as fabrications and casting doubt on the veracity of her injuries allegedly sustained during the purported attack. Priya Chaudhry told the jury in court (via Rolling Stone),

“You are here to end this nightmare for Jonathan Majors. You are here to see what is obvious…Jonathan Majors is innocent.

A pivotal moment arose when Chaudhry highlighted Majors’ actions after discovering Jabbari unconscious, emphasizing that despite being wary due to his status as a Black man in America, he did not hesitate to call for emergency assistance. However, instead of conducting a thorough investigation, the authorities swiftly arrested Majors, tainting him as the perpetrator.

Chaudhry meticulously picked apart Jabbari’s account of events, emphasizing inconsistencies and questioning the validity of her injuries, presenting surveillance footage depicting Jabbari seemingly utilizing her injured finger after the altercation. This evidence, according to Chaudhry, discredited Jabbari’s claims as baseless and fabricated, stating unequivocally that nothing in Jabbari’s narrative aligned with reality or medical possibility. Choudhry further stated (via Rolling Stone),

“I want to end this nightmare for Jonathan, right now, immediately. It’s just fake. Nothing she says makes sense. Nothing she says is medically possible. Everything she said is belied by the video.”

As the trial neared its conclusion, the courtroom witnessed an emotionally charged moment that left both Jonathan Majors and his current girlfriend, Megan Good, visibly moved. The gravity of the situation seemed to overwhelm Choudhury as she reached the culmination of her argument. Her voice, which had been resolute and composed throughout the trial, began to waver.

Following his arrest on March 25, Jonathan Majors adamantly pleaded not guilty to four charges, including assault and harassment, stemming from an altercation with his ex-partner, Grace Jabbari. Before the March arrest, Majors was poised for a career-defining year, with high-profile releases such as Creed III and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania.

His portrayal in Magazine Dreams had garnered early Oscar speculation. However, in the wake of the accusations, his management and publicist teams swiftly severed ties, and Searchlight Pictures indefinitely postponed the theatrical release of Magazine Dreams, leaving Majors’ professional standing in jeopardy. Amidst this upheaval, the only remaining cornerstone appeared to be his association with Marvel, slated to focus on his character, Kang the Conqueror, in the franchise’s upcoming installment, Avengers: The Kang Dynasty in 2026.

As the high-profile trial concludes after two weeks, both the prosecution and defense have delivered their closing statements. The jury has now started deliberating on the four charges, the outcome of which hangs in the balance, potentially impacting Majors’ future both personally and professionally.
