Actor Meagan Good is currently trending on X, formerly known as Twitter, following the end of the first week of her boyfriend, Jonathan Majors‘, domestic assault trial. As The Shade Room previously reported, Major was accused of assaulting his then-girlfriend Grace Jabbari in March 2023. He was subsequently charged with strangulation, assault, and harassment.
Since then, the actor has filed a cross-complaint against Jabbari. Major alleged that she committed similar, unreported acts of violence against him during their relationship.
As The Shade Room previously reported, the actor’s trial began with opening statements on Monday, December 4. At the time, Majors was seen entering the courtroom with his now-girlfriend, Meagan Good, Good’s mother, and his mother and sister.
Prosecutors alleged his romance with Jabbari took off quickly after the pair met on a movie set. They reportedly exchanged love notes and poems “early on,” as Jabbari explained to the jury she felt “very loved” and “cared for” by Majors.
However, within months, “the defendant’s true self began to emerge,” prosecutors alleged.
The following day, Jabbari explained to the jury that Majors is prone to “rage and aggression.”
“His face kind of changes when he gets into that place,” Jabbari explained. “He’s a big guy, so you just want to step back.”
Then, Jabbari’s subsequent testimony and recordings revealed the details of a September 2022 incident between the former couple. The jury reportedly listened as audio showed Majors declaring himself a “great man” and saying he needed Jabbari to behave like Coretta Scott King or Michelle Obama.
“I’m a great man. A great man. I do great things for my culture and for the world,” Majors said, per Variety. “The woman that supports me needs to be a great woman.”
According to PEOPLE, Jabbari’s testimony continued until Friday, December 8. That same day, a text message exchange was shared with the court regarding an incident that allegedly occurred between the former couple in September 2022.
“I fear you have no perspective of what could happen if you go to the hospital,” Majors reportedly texted to Jabbari. “They will ask you questions, and as I don’t think you actually protect us, it could lead to an investigation even if you do lie, and they suspect something.”
PEOPLE reports that Majors alluded to something that was “just fake” in his messages. However, no additional context was provided in the messages shared with the court.
Furthermore, the hospital visit that the former couple spoke about appeared to be in connection to a head injury Jabbari experienced.
“I will tell the doctor I bumped my head,” Jabbari said, reading her text message to Majors to the court before succumbing to her tears. According to the outlet, Assistant District Attorney Kelli Galaway continued. “I will tell the doctor I bumped my head if I go. I’m going to give it one more day, but I can’t sleep and I need some stronger pain killers. That’s all: why would I tell them what really happened when it’s clear I want to be with you?”
According to the outlet, the text messages were permitted to be used as “Molineux evidence.” The outlet reports that this particular evidence represents “conduct that is inextricably interwoven with the charged acts.” Additionally, it may “provide necessary background information or explanation.”
The former couple’s text exchange reportedly continued with Majors alleging he “considered killing” himself.
“Last night I considered killing myself versus coming home. I need love too. Or maybe I’m such a monster and horrible man, I don’t deserve it. And I should just kill myself. In this way, my existence is miserable, I want to die,” Majors wrote to Jabbari.
Jabbari then reaffirmed that she wouldn’t go to the doctor.
“I will not go to the doctor if you don’t feel safe with me doing so, or don’t trust me to. I promise you I would never mention you but understand your fear,” Jabbari responded.
However, Majors then threatened to commit suicide.
“I will probably kill myself, it’s not really contemplating anymore. I’m a monster, a horrible man, not capable of love. I’m killing myself soon,” Majors answered.
According to PEOPLE, Majors kept his head down as the text messages were read and “briefly” looked at the jury afterward.
On Saturday, December 9, “Meagan Good” began to trend on X, formerly known as Twitter. Many users seemed to share their continued shock at Good’s romance with Majors.
While others pointed out that she may have been surprised by the texts read during the recent court hearing.
