Gervonta Davis will not face prosecution after domestic violence charge dropped
Gervonta Davis has avoided trial for a domestic violence charge after the alleged victim refused to prosecute. "This case was dropped as the victim is declining to prosecute per her victim attorney, Lindsey Chase, Esq., and her sentiments we directly confirmed by the Assistant State Attorney handling the prosecution," the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office told TMZ Sports. "The witness to the incident, who is the victim's mother, also failed to cooperate and failed [to appear] after being subpoenaed for a prefile conference on Thursday 8/7. Followed up attempts to contact the witness (mother) via phone were unsuccessful." Davis was arrested in Miami Beach on July 11 for a misdemeanor battery domestic violence charge after he was accused of hitting his ex-girlfriend and slapping her during an incident on June 15. According to the complaint, a verbal altercation occurred, which escalated into a physical confrontation. As Davis' ex-girlfriend was removing her children from Davis' car, as instructed to do so by Davis, Davis allegedly struck her in the back of the head and then slapped her on the right side of her face, causing a minor laceration in the inner area of her lip. Davis' court hearing was supposed to take place July 29 but was delayed by two weeks to Tuesday, where the case was closed by Judge Elizabeth M. Espinosa Marin. The WBA lightweight champion was expected to rematch Lamont Roach in August after the pair fought to a controversial draw in March, which included Davis' infamous knee controversy. The timeline for Davis' ring return is currently unclear.

Reggaeton artist Jhayco arrested and accused of cocaine possession in Florida
The Reggaeton musician and songwriter, Jhayco, was arrested. According to an arrest report obtained by a local NBC news station in Miami, 32-year-old Jhayco — whose real name is Jesus Manuel Nieves Cortes — was arrested on drug charges on Tuesday morning in Miami-Dade County, Florida. The report claims the songwriter was allegedly driving a red two-door Corvette that was only driving 5mph along Southwest 8th Street before 3 a.m. ET. When the vehicle then came to a complete stop and did not move for over one minute, Jhayco was pulled over by the authorities. As an officer approached the car, they said they 'smelled the strong odor of cannabis,' while the car's driver had 'white powder on his pants and white powder on his nose.' After the Reggaeton artist was allegedly unable to give the authorities a driver's license, he was asked to vacate the car, where a routine records check could not find a driver's license under his name. When the Corvette was searched, the police allegedly found two black pouches with 7 grams of suspected cannabis in each one. Upon searching Jhayco's pockets, the authorities claimed to have seen three 'clear baggies with suspect powder cocaine,' totaling about two grams. The musician was booked into the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center at 4:24 a.m. and was arrested and charged with cocaine possession of 20 grams or less of cannabis, with a bond set at $3,000. Deputies said Jhayco had made a spontaneous statement, which was redacted from the publicly released arrest report. No further information has been revealed at this time. Jhayco, who was born in Puerto Rico, previously performed under the stage name Jhay Cortez. In 2019, his debut album, titled Famouz, reached number five on the Top Latin Albums chart. He is most well-known for his collaborations with other Latin artists, such as Bad Bunny, and the songs 'No Me Conoce - Remix,' 'DÁKITI,' and 'CÓMO SE SIENTE.' His most recent album from September 2024 was titled Le Clique: Vida Rockstar (X), which was recorded in studios across the world, including Paris, Madrid, Puerto Rico, Los Angeles, and Miami.
