BJ Penn arrested for 3rd time in last week amid family issues

The post BJ Penn arrested for 3rd time in last week amid family issues appeared first on ClutchPoints. UFC Hall of Famer B.J. Penn was arrested on Friday, May 30, for the third time in the past week. The former UFC fighter has been claiming that his family has been murdered and replaced by imposters. Penn was arrested for failing to appear in court, which violated his bail agreement. Penn claimed that he did not show up to court due to contracting COVID-19, but the claim was unsuccessful, according to the Hawaiian news outlet KHON2. Penn's last arrest followed the former UFC star being in handcuffs on Sunday (May 25) and then again on Monday (May 26). He was arrested on charges of abuse of a family or household member in both incidents. His mother, Lorraine Shin, has filed a temporary restraining order against her son as she claims that Penn 'grabbed my arms and shoved me against the 4-door gray sedan, which I felt a sharp pain in my back,' on May 25 and called out for her younger son, Reagan, to help her. He was ordered to stay away from his mother's home for 48 hours, but she claims he was caught breaking in the next day. He was arrested for violating the legal order. She noticed that items from her bedroom, 'such as clothes, shoes, jewelry, personal items' went missing as well as 'with my driver's license, credit card and locks for my safe,' were stolen. Shin filed a police report after the items from her room went missing as Penn denied tampering with her items. Since belongings around the house were being misplaced, she installed a security camera which she claims Penn 'also put glue into my dead bolts that stopped me from opening my bedroom door.' Shin believes that her son is suffering from a mental disorder. 'I believe my son [B.J. Penn] is suffering from Capgras delusional syndrome [a psychiatric disorder in which a person holds a delusion that a friend, spouse, parent, other close family member has been replaced by an identical imposter],' Shin wrote in a statement provided to authorities. 'He believes I'm an imposter who has killed his family to gain control of the family assets.' Penn earned two UFC titles (Welterweight and Lightweight) and was later inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame in 2015. He currently holds the record for most UFC Lightweight title defenses and was the first non-Brazilian to win the World Jiu-Jitsu Championship. His last fight was in 2019. After being caught in street fighting videos, UFC CEO Dana White released him from the organization. 'He won't fight again. That's it. That's a wrap,' White said in 2019. 'It's not even that this was the last straw. I didn't love him continuing to fight anyway. But when you have the relationship that he and I have, and he's getting me on the phone begging me for another fight, begging me for another opportunity, it's hard for me to turn him down. But after what I saw on that video, B.J. needs to focus on his personal life and get himself together before he thinks about fighting again.'

UFC champion B.J. Penn charged for alleged abuse of his mom, 79

Former UFC lightweight champion Jay Dee 'B.J.' Penn III was arrested twice this week for allegedly assaulting his 79-year-old mother amid a dispute where the mixed martial artist believes his family has been replaced by impostors. Penn, 46, of Hilo, has posted bizarre ramblings on social media in recent months, including of one of his arrest Monday. In that footage, filmed by a friend, Penn is seen lying on his back in his bed asking how he could be arrested in his own home. Penn then asks that Hawaii Police Department officers who know him be brought to speak with him while questioning the officers' motivation for signing up for a career in law enforcement. He was charged Tuesday with two misdemeanor counts of abuse of a household member. Penn, a former candidate for governor, is barred from being near the mother of his children or his mom after two petitions for protective orders were granted by a Hilo family court judge. His mom, Lorraine P. Shin, and the mother of his two daughters, Shealen Uaiula, allege the fighter suffers from traumatic brain injuries, drug abuse and has lost touch with reality. Shin wrote that Penn is suffering from 'Capgras delusional syndrome, ' a psychiatric disorder in which a person holds a delusion that a friend, spouse, parent or other close family member has been replaced by an identical imposter. 'He believes I'm an imposter who has killed his family to gain control of the family assets. In the best interest for my safety, l ask the court for a 6 months TRO and have my son ordered to get medical treatment or other source of therapy, ' wrote Shin in her petition filed Tuesday. On Sunday at 8 :45 p.m., South Hilo patrol officers responded to a fight at Shin's home. In her petition, Shin said she had no mail in her box from Friday to Sunday and she asked B.J. 'if he took the mail out of the mailbox and he said no.' At about 8 :40 p.m. Shin said she saw B.J. outside of her front gate leaning inside of the driver's back seat of his friend's rented four-door gray sedan with a large 'super-bright ' handheld flashlight. 'I approached him and saw mail in the back seat of a 4-door gray sedan. I asked him if that was my mail, and he said no. Immediately tried to call the police because I knew that was my mail and understood that it was a federal offense to take mail out of a U.S. mailbox. My son immediately shoved his flashlight directly into my eyes to blind me from dialing my cell phone. I tried turning in several directions and he continued to blind me with his flashlight, ' Shin wrote. 'I then tried to grab the flashlight and remove it from my face, and then he grabbed my arms and shoved me against the 4-door gray sedan which I felt a sharp pain in my back. I then started to scream at the top of my voice for my son Reagan Penn to help me. Reagan lives two houses away from me. Reagan ran over to help me. I then dialed 911 for help.' B.J. Penn posted a video of the confrontation on his Instagram account allegedly showing Shin and him yelling at one another. 'HIT ME ! HIT ME ! HIT ME !—is that an 80 year old woman ??? (laughing face emoji ) This isn't the first time that Imposter identity thief FAKE LORRAINE SHIN has tried to get me to assault her and she has already walked around my house with a gun when I asked her about my finances and my families finances, ' wrote Penn on his page. 'This lady knows nothing about business and is a murdering thief. The REAL LORRAINE SHIN MAKES THIS MORON LOOK PARKED.' The next day police returned to the home after Penn allegedly broke into his mom's house. He left before officers arrived. On Monday at 9 a.m., police responded to a 'warning citation violation at the same address involving the same parties ' after Shin reported that Penn was inside her home earlier that morning, in violation of the warning citation. 'Penn left the residence before police arrived, however was located nearby a short time later at 9 :30 a.m. and arrested and charged for abuse of family or household member, ' read a statement from the Hawaii Police Department. 'He was transported to the East Hawaii Detention Facility for the booking and identification process.' Penn paid $2, 000 bail to get out of jail Monday and $1, 000 to bail out on Tuesday. He did not reply to a Honolulu Star-Advertiser request for comment. Shin alleges Penn filled the key hole to her door with glue and stole her purse, credit cards, items in her safe, clothes and other household belongings. Shin filed felony theft complaints with police. She declined a Star-Advertiser request for comment. In her petition for a protective order, Uaiula accused Penn of being aggressive toward their daughters, drug abuse and cutting off child support. She said he posted wild accusations naming her on social media, including pictures of her deceased mother, and accused her and his children of being impostors. 'Over the past year, Mr. Penn has accused me of being a CIA agent and claims I wear multiple masks. He also stated that I am a part of the 'sabotage squad', ' she wrote. 'Then he says in his words, 'I promise I will end you.'' The domestic violence allegations against, when Uaiula accused him of a decade of abuse threatening to kill her family. Penn unsuccessfully tried April 7 to petition the court for a restraining order against his mom, alleging her 'friends ' and 'agents ' have weapons and are very dangerous. Shin keeps the house very dark and has 'thugs and thieves ' living there with them, Penn wrote. 'I am scared for my life and they are stealing all of my money, ' Penn wrote. He finished his UFC career with 16 wins, 14 losses and two draws.

Sakamoto Days Chapter 215: Takamura Awakens As Shin Runs Away—Recap, Release Date, Where To Read And More

The last Sakamoto Days chapter, titled 'Lost Child,' opened with civilians and media reacting to Japan's firearms suddenly becoming non-functional. X confronts Shin about the sabotage. Though Shin doesn't know Seba was responsible, he implies Sakamoto's group might be. X then attacks using a sword that morphs into a scorpion-whip. Remembering Nagumo's advice, Shin avoids emitting bloodlust to prevent awakening Takamura. He ejects both of them from the building using a jet seat, landing in an aquarium. Realising where they are, X hallucinates Rion and hesitates. His Takamura personality then awakens when a shark attacks. Expected plot in Sakamoto Days Chapter 215 Sakamoto Days Chapter 215 will likely continue with Shin facing the Takamura identity within X. Since Takamura hasn't attacked immediately, Shin may have a brief window to escape without provoking him. The chapter will likely depict Shin avoiding bloodlust while seeking safety. Sakamoto may also reappear, attempting to extract Shin. The setting in the aquarium will likely become a factor during the encounter, either obstructing or aiding escape efforts depending on Takamura's reaction. Boiled, Heisuke, or Asakura may still make a miraculous return. Sakamoto Days Chapter 215: Release date and where to stream Sakamoto Days Chapter 215 will be released in Japan on Monday, June 2, 2025, at midnight JST. International readers can expect it on June 1, with release times around 3 pm GMT / 7 am PT / 10 am ET, though this may vary by location. Sakamoto Days Chapter 215 can be read on Viz Media's website, MANGAPlus, and the Shonen Jump+ app. Free access is available on Viz Media and MANGAPlus, while a subscription is required for Shonen Jump+. It will also appear in Weekly Shonen Jump Issue 27. For more updates from the Sakamoto Days manga, keep an eye on Pinkvilla.

B.J. Penn's mother files for restraining order after ex-UFC champ arrested on back-to-back days

UFC Hall of Famer BJ Penn was arrested twice in two days in his home state of Hawaii. (Chris Unger/Zuffa LLC) The mother of former UFC champion B.J. Penn has filed for a restraining order against the Hall of Fame fighter, telling a court that she believes her son suffers from a rare psychological disorder known as Capgras syndrome. While a judge has yet to rule on this specific restraining order request, it comes shortly after Penn, 46, was arrested on charges of abuse of a family or household member in his home state of Hawaii. Advertisement According to court documents obtained by MMA Fighting, Penn's mother, Lorraine Shin, alleges that she has endured 'extreme psychological abuse' at the hands of her son. Shin claims that Penn has accused her of being an imposter who 'killed his family' and assumed his mother's identity. 'I believe my son [B.J. Penn] is suffering from Capgras delusional syndrome (a psychiatric disorder in which a person holds a delusion that a friend, spouse, parent, other close family member has been replaced by an identical imposter),' Shin wrote in a statement provided to authorities. 'He believes I'm an imposter who has killed his family to gain control of the family assets.' Capgras syndrome is a rare psychological disorder that often causes people to falsely believe that those close to them are imposters masquerading as family or friends. While there is no single known cause, brain injuries and neurodegenerative diseases are believed to be among the potential mitigating factors, along with schizophrenia or other mental health conditions. Advertisement In Shin's request for a restraining order, she alleges a disturbing pattern of behavior from Penn. After returning from a trip earlier this month, Shin said, she noticed that many of her belongings 'such as clothes, shoes, jewelry, personal items' and even her bed had all been removed from her bedroom. Shin filed a police report after Penn denied taking the items, she said, and a few days later her purse 'with my driver's license, credit card and locks for my safe' were also stolen. Shin said she then put up security cameras inside and outside the home, while also installing a deadbolt lock on her bedroom door. According to Shin, Penn took down or tampered with the cameras and 'also put glue into my dead bolts that stopped me from opening my bedroom door.' On Monday, Penn posted a video to his Instagram page showing him being arrested by police officers. Court records indicate that Penn was arrested on Sunday, May 25, and then again on Monday, May 26, both times on charges of abuse of a family or household member. In the caption to the video, Penn wrote: 'In Hawaii, 'imposter theft' refers to instances where individuals falsely impersonate others, often to steal their identity or commit fraudulent acts. This can involve using a fake identity to obtain documents, financial accounts, or even posing as law enforcement or other professionals to commit crimes.' Advertisement Penn has made multiple social media posts in recent months alleging that his family has been murdered and replaced by imposters. A video posted on May 17 shows Penn arguing with a woman who appears to be Shin, accusing her of being an 'identity thief' who is not actually his mother. Penn last fought in the UFC in May 2019, suffering a seventh consecutive loss. He was expected to have at least one more fight in the promotion, but was later released by the UFC after video surfaced showing Penn in a street fight outside a Hawaii bar. 'He won't fight again. That's it. That's a wrap,' UFC CEO Dana White said in 2019. 'It's not even that this was the last straw. I didn't love him continuing to fight anyway. But when you have the relationship that he and I have, and he's getting me on the phone begging me for another fight, begging me for another opportunity, it's hard for me to turn him down. But after what I saw on that video, B.J. needs to focus on his personal life and get himself together before he thinks about fighting again.' Penn has several pending legal cases in Hawaii, including a civil suit and a separate restraining order. Shin has asked the court for a six-month temporary restraining order against Penn, as well as court-ordered 'medical treatment or other source of therapy' for her son. A judge has yet to rule on the request.

Leona Maguire faces battle to make the cut in Mexico

Leona Maguire is in a fight to make the cut at the Mexico Riviera Maya Open where four golfers share the lead after the first round in the at El Camaleon Golf Course. Brianna Do, Chisato Iwai, Jenny Shin and Bianca Pagdanganan each shot a 4-under-par 68 to share the first-round lead, while Maguire struggled in hot and cloudy conditions, finishing with a round of 75 to leave her on +3. Maguire started well enough with a birdie on the par-4 third hole, but that was as good as it got for the Cavan native who picked up a bogey on the fifth hole along with three more on the back nine to leave her struggling to make the projected cut of +4. At the top of the leaderboard Do birdied two of her first four holes in Playa del Carmen, then followed that with an eagle on the par-5 fifth hole. She bogeyed the par-4 ninth hole to close an eventful front nine, then added a birdie on her final hole. "I got off to a pretty hot start," Do said after making her season debut. "I think I was 4-under through 5, so that helped a lot. "And then I kind of just kept it pretty steady coming in. I think the back nine plays a little tougher than the front, and so just giving myself opportunities on the back and then finishing with a birdie on 18." Of the foursome tied atop the leaderboard, Shin finished with the most birdies - seven - but also posted a bogey on the fifth and a double bogey on the par-4 16th hole. However, Shin was able to recover with back-to-back birdies to close her round. Overall, five of her birdies came on the back nine despite temperatures reaching 33 degrees. "I actually don't remember because it's so hot," said Shin, who notched 27 putts. "I don't remember the first birdie. But, yeah, hit some really good shots and some bad ones, hence the double bogey on 16." Meanwhile, Iwai and Pagdanganan each collected five birdies and one bogey on the day. Pagdanganan's bogey came at the 16th, but she finished strong with a birdie on the 18th. "It felt like a pretty easy round, which honestly I haven't felt in a while,"Pagdanganan said. "To be able to have that out here feels really good. I hit a lot of greens, not a lot of fairways.... I had a pretty clear headspace."
