Innocent until proven guilty, a tale about double standards in 2 acts:

"Motorcycle thieves are scum of the earth, they should rot in jail!"

"Don't be so lenient, jail is not hard enough, I say we should go back to good old times and chop their hands!"

"What? You're a bunch of softies, I would settle for no less than public execution."
 

...

 

"Now, of course I don't condone domestic violence but here's a bunch of excuses I could find for it: women can be mean so maybe she deserved it, maybe she lied, do you have video, maybe she attacked him, maybe the poor guy had a bad day but I'm sure he's a cool dude the rest of the time, could be the first time he's assaulting her, it could happen to anyone really, maybe life is hard on him, it could be the drugs that made him do it, maybe it's due to health issues. By the way, who are you to give your opinion, you should leave this poor man alone."

 

My point is not comparing one action to another (though one involves physically hurting another human being), nor comparing any particular individual or establishing guilt in a specific case either. It's more of a reflection about how "innocent until proven guilty", demanding definite proof before passing judgement, or showing compassion seems limited to certain instances.

who are you quoting?

Presumably his 'actions' are the ones documented in the incident report. Therefore, yes, El Homebray did attack his wife”

You’d make a terrible detective !

Indeed. El Homebray's statement is ambiguously worded on purpose. But I find it difficult to believe by 'actions' he'd just be referring to banging other broads during his overseas jaunts, or smoking weed, or having some sort of reefer madness from smoking the weed (these last two are theories provided by V'Tards). 

So, we can infer 'actions' means chocking his wife and punching her in the side...

You can think that yes, but to declare it as fact is another thing entirely. Which is what I believe is over the line at this point. Short of a complete admission, the other side(s) of the story, evidence (i.e. black eye, bruising), or a charge is brought against Jason, we probably will never know exactly what happened, and we will have to be comfortable not knowing what happened with someone we don't know. The authorities that have the power to punish, have such information and obviously did not feel strongly enough that the evidence was beyond a reasonable doubt

The fact you think it is difficult to believe he was referring to "banging other broads" does not make it fact. There are probably people who think it is very easy to believe. It sounds plausible to me. He was trying to clean up a mess, sometimes a blanket apology seems like the right thing to do.

It would be very interesting to hear Mrs. Andersons original statement and any statements made later. I feel that would allow some between the lines reading with a little more accuracy. We just have no idea what anyone said. The neighbor, Jason, responding officers, Jason's wife, etc...  And we will never see that, nor do I think that its appropriate that we do.

I don't think it's appropriate to let him off the hook, and I don't think its appropriate to hang him. Not our place, and we don't have the facts to do that.

After a police report has been filed and the officer notes any evidence,. .The state DA prosecution does not need the accuser or really care. Would they prefer their cooperation ? Yes.

When there is EVIDENCE the state will pick it up and run with it. If there is no evidence and the accuser ("victim") wants to drop charges, sure, they will close the case.

Domestic "issues" are the number one thing that the prosecution wants to actively pursue, unless it is a certain loser.

Neighbors call police, police file a report and make an arrest, Anderson doesn't race, they both delete social media, team announces he's out indefinitely, he puts out statement taking full responsibility and offering no correction or qualifiers to what's being reported......

William "THERE'S NO EVIDENCE!!!!!!! MAYBE THEY'RE ALL TAKING THESE ACTIONS BECAUSE HE GOT LAID IN SOUTH AFRICA!!!!!" 

You couldn't be more wrong about how these cases are handled if you tried and your inability to put 2 and 2 together while also being this confident in yourself is something else. Please don't reproduce.

With all due respect about the talk of the law and proper police conduct here - the Leo who arrested JA has zero credibility with a domestic violence history of her own.  This lady shouldn't even have a badge and they should have shit canned her a long time ago but instead they reassigned her.  Erick_94cobra posted this back on page 4 of this thread and people are still talking about proper law enforcement procedures and conduct?  Ya'll can squash that respectable police talk right now for this case and focus on something else:

Deputy Tracy Weiss:
Deputy confronts tow truck driver
Deputy reassigned after confrontation with tow truck driver

For the record Jason plead not guilty, here's a breakdown:
https://www.fullnoise.com.au/fullnoise-news/jason-anderson-steps-away-from-supercross-indefinitely-as-december-arrest-comes-to-light/

Ever seen those 'caught cheating' videos of how women act when they think they have been cheated on?  They act a lot crazier than the corrupt lunatic who arrested JA in the video link above who was this mental over her truck getting towed from being parked illegally. This Leo, who ruins all credibility for any officer explanations here for JA's case would have been firing bullets had she thought she'd been cheated on.  The JA incident was an argument about infidelity that got out of hand, neighbors called cops, and then this psychopath below showed up to investigate the noise.  Leo/arrest credibility = ZERO.  No charges filed.  Case sealed.

Everyone really thinks this was JA's statement in the PR?  Nah, these are standard boiler plate PR 101 statements crafted by PMG and JA's agent to perform damage control after the internet dumpster fire erupted - "Here's what we need to do for damage control Jason".  There's no other options here for PMG, this is standard corporate playbook, then no further response. Zero other options for JA here to avoid career suicide unless he never wanted to race again.  They are following the standard playbook response - cut and paste vague apology verbiage in the PR and then follow with a plan for anger management and marriage counseling.  Give it some time to let the dust settle, let Deegan grab the headlines with a soft block pass, and then he'll be back.

Just because charges were dropped doesn't mean he didn't punch and choke his wife. The neighbors felt strongly enough that Jason was being violent that they called the cops on the millionaire next door. Most people wouldn't do that on a whim.

"Just because charges were dropped doesn't mean he didn't punch and choke his wife"

The state / DA does not drop charges if it is something worth pursuing at all. So yes, it means there is no evidence that  he "punched" or "choked" his wife.

"Guilty people get acquitted all the time"

And innocent people get charged and convicted all the time. 

As a member of the "court of public opinion", what is your basis for believing he punched or choked his wife ?

 

Police were called by witness not his wife.  He was arrested.  He publicly apologised for his actions.  He and his team have separated.  All social media accounts deleted.

Individually those things probably mean nothing.  Collectively they mean it’s highly likely something serious actually did happen.

You are arguing your point vigorously in the face of actual information pointing to something happening and contrary to the opinions of actual career law enforcement people who are saying otherwise.

The court of public opinion is real, but it’s not a court of law.  People are free to form their own opinions just as you are.  They aren’t under any burden of proof.

https://mxnews-online.com/en/jason-anderson-im-fokus-von-gerichtsakten-…

According to the article the charges were dropped due to the victim filing an Affidavit of Non-Prosecution - meaning she was not going to go ahead with the process.  

"On February 9, 2026 the public prosecutor's office announced not to bring charges. The reason given was that there was insufficient usable evidence, particularly because victims or potential witnesses were not cooperating. The proceedings were thus terminated."

Interestingly though - and this is the first time I've heard about this - El Homebray -  hired a lawyer and submitted a “Not Guilty” plea and requested access to the investigation files and any potential exculpatory evidence. 

Whether this is simply him lying or the truth we can't know - at this stage. I still think it's odd to apologise for 'actions' (which in this context makes one think he means the DV situation) if you are blameless.

I'm telling you, with absolute certainty, that the state picks up DV cases if a spouse or girlfriend wants to drop charges. They don't need the accuser to pursue it and ultimately, they don't care if the accuser is charging or not when they have any evidence whatsoever.

 

You're obviously foaming at the mouth and I really don't have a dog in this fight but they have a sworn statement of the victim and body cam footage of her injuries. At least stop saying there is no evidence. 

I will also add misdemeanor prosecutors are often interested in one thing and that's win/loss record so they can move on from misdemeanors. If the victim is the sole witness (which is typical) and has a change of heart they absolutely will honor the victim's wishes because reasonable doubt is a tough standard.

I'm not new to the Internet, but it is really odd that people are arguing over this shit to the extent that they are.  I don't even know why I'm so invested in this shitshow.

Some facts:

Anderson was arrested by a female Sherrif's Deputy with a history of domestic violence.  

The only information on what happened came from the report that Deputy wrote.  

The report noted that "BWC (body worn camera) captured the injuries" sustained by Anderson's wife.

The day after being arrested Anderson was released and hired a lawyer, who filed a bunch of documents (you all can look at them here: Orange County Clerk of Courts Records Search)

Anderson's attorney filed an "Affidavit of Non-Prosecution" written by his wife.

The court dismissed the case due to "Insufficient Admissible Evidence Due to Lack of Cooperating Victim or Witness"

 

Speculation:

It's possible the arrest was bullshit.  I would be surprised if a District Attorney would allow a DV Charge to be dismissed if there was evidence (from the bodycam).    

It's possible that Anderson's wife is a battered wife, and is basically being held hostage.  (her bangs trimming tutorial a few weeks after the incident indicates otherwise: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DTODUUtEqAx/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==) 

It's possible that Anderson really did what was alleged - in which case, that really sucks for all involved.

 

Let's not get out the Jump to Conclusions mat yet.  I really hope they all get their shit together.

Apparently no one understands how the law works. You get arrested "on suspicion of <insert crime here>". The State Attorney then determines whether charges are appropriate based on all the information available. If the State Attorney decides to pursue charges, you get arraigned, where you answer those charges, and then the legal process plays out. If the State Attorney declines to pursue charges, the case is documented as closed and you get cut loose. 

Once you do get charged with DV in Florida, the State no longer needs a complaining or cooperating victim to proceed. 

See second paragraph. Seems that is exactly what happened - decided not to pursue due to lack of evidence.

You shouldn't be surprised. This isn't a difference of opinion or some unknowable thing. Not sure how many informed people have to say it. In the overwhelming majority of these cases, if the victim does not want to pursue charges, they will not be pursued. That's where the decision starts and stops. There is no looking at other evidence to determine if they should still pursue charges. The surprising thing would be if charges are ever pursued when the victim doesn't want them to be. Hard to continue in these discussions when people will not accept this fact and keep repeating that the lack of prosecution means anything else.

Florida allows for such a prosecution if there is sufficient evidence. Edit: It's typically not done unless it's an eggregious case, but the law there does permit it.

Throwing the 15-yard BS flag on this one.

The local PA office routinely drops cases with ample probable cause and documentation, for a variety of reasons-uncooperative victims, witnesses going awol, lack of resources, or because whatever the charge is isn’t popular to prosecute that week. 

I can even cite cases where they send the case back for further investigation, the LEO does everything requested, then they decline the case anyway.

DV laws allow the state to take the place of the victim in some cases if that victim becomes uncooperative, but it doesn’t mean it happens very often. 

It almost never happens in domestic violence cases where the two peopled involved are trying to settle things between them with the goal living happily after together...

I understand that it is possible.  I also have no reason to believe you haven’t had that experience. 

I am shocked there is an entire class of crime that is allegedly dependent on victim testimony for prosecution to take place.  Not the first time I’ve been surprised, and probably not the last though. 

Do you have any sources backing this assertion?

It's not black and white. If a victim has their face caved in and multiple fractures and changes their sworn statement to say they tripped over the dog that's one thing. If the victim says they were hit in the side and grabbed by the throat and have minor red marks to corroborate, obviously a different case from an evidentiary perspective. The latter will not be put before a jury with no cooperative witness testimony.

The mental gymnastics people will go through to defend this is crazy. We’ve got: Jason smoked too much weed, the cop who arrested Jason is a corrupt lunatic, Jason’s wife stopped having sex with him after having a child, his wife lied, the neighbors lied, and my personal favorite maybe Jason did hit her but it’s ok because women are crazy sometimes. 

I totally reserve the right to be wrong in this. I actually really want to be wrong about this and I think a lot of people who think Jason is guilty of hurting his wife also want to be wrong. But yeah, I agree with Truck here. It’s just too much to not think he hurt her.

Just because charges were dropped doesn't mean he didn't punch and choke his wife. The neighbors felt strongly enough that Jason was being violent that they called the cops on the millionaire next door. Most people wouldn't do that on a whim.

The court of public opinion is real, but it’s not a court of law.  People are free to form their own opinions just as you are.  They aren’t under any burden of proof.

If you were the state prosecutor, what crime would you charge Anderson with and what is your evidence to present to support the charge ?

My uncle was a preachin' man.  He got a tumor in his brain and started runnin' the whores and usin' the meth.  My aunt had to divorce him and of course the church couldn't have a whore mongerin' dope head gettin' his hands on the collection plate so he lost his job.

Somebody...a doctor or something figured out it was a tumor causin' him to lose his mind and do that crazy stuff.  Anyhow...they cut that tumor out of his head and he was mostly back to normal.  Even got his preachin' job back and my aunt remarried him.

Then he went back whorin' and doin' the drugs.  You guessed it...that tumor grew back.

I'm just sayin'...Maybe Jason has a tumor.🙃

Damn, that’s funny! Thanks for the laugh amidst all the BS. 🤣

"Just because charges were dropped doesn't mean he didn't punch and choke his wife"

The state / DA does not drop charges if it is something worth pursuing at all. So yes, it means there is no evidence that  he "punched" or "choked" his wife.

"Guilty people get acquitted all the time"

And innocent people get charged and convicted all the time. 

As a member of the "court of public opinion", what is your basis for believing he punched or choked his wife ?

Police were called by witness not his wife.  He was arrested.  He publicly apologised for his actions.  He and his team have separated.  All social media accounts deleted.

How the hell should I know?  I don’t have any expertise or specific knowledge of the law.  I certainly don’t know what constitutes sufficient evidence to proceed with a charge or prosecution.

However all the things I listed above we know to be true and factual.  Now what do you consider to be more likely:

(a) Anderson really did nothing of serious substance yet was arrested, issued a public apology, been cut from his employer and deleted social media, all over a nothing incident;  or 

(b) something of a serious nature did actually happen, enough for those things to occur but not sufficient for a prosecution to proceed.

Why do people write that his team has let him go? In those two official press releases I don't see a word about his team dropping him.

It’s been mentioned already, but he’s been removed from their website. 

Not that he can’t be added back on it, but he’s definitely not listed as a rider on their team.

After a police report has been filed and the officer notes any evidence,. .The state DA prosecution does not need the accuser or really care. Would they prefer their cooperation ? Yes.

When there is EVIDENCE the state will pick it up and run with it. If there is no evidence and the accuser ("victim") wants to drop charges, sure, they will close the case.

Domestic "issues" are the number one thing that the prosecution wants to actively pursue, unless it is a certain loser.

Neighbors call police, police file a report and make an arrest, Anderson doesn't race, they both delete social media, team announces he's out indefinitely, he puts out statement taking full responsibility and offering no correction or qualifiers to what's being reported......

William "THERE'S NO EVIDENCE!!!!!!! MAYBE THEY'RE ALL TAKING THESE ACTIONS BECAUSE HE GOT LAID IN SOUTH AFRICA!!!!!" 

You couldn't be more wrong about how these cases are handled if you tried and your inability to put 2 and 2 together while also being this confident in yourself is something else. Please don't reproduce.

The mental gymnastics people will go through to defend this is crazy. We’ve got: Jason smoked too much weed, the cop who arrested Jason is a corrupt lunatic, Jason’s wife stopped having sex with him after having a child, his wife lied, the neighbors lied, and my personal favorite maybe Jason did hit her but it’s ok because women are crazy sometimes. 

I totally reserve the right to be wrong in this. I actually really want to be wrong about this and I think a lot of people who think Jason is guilty of hurting his wife also want to be wrong. But yeah, I agree with Truck here. It’s just too much to not think he hurt her.

The language they used is code for 'let go'. E.g: 'mutually agreed' etc...

People aren’t fans of other riders for far lesser reasons. I’m not sure why some of you are so invested in whether a random person on the internet decides they aren’t a fan of Anderson anymore.

In the USA, you're innocent until proven guilty. Ando has not been proven guilty. The court of public opinion has tried and convicted him. Shame on them. 

He was arrested. Anyone can get arrested. Cop has a bad day, he/she will arrest you for spite. The States Attorney/DA did not move forward with charges. Case closed. 

The Incident

Charges: Anderson was arrested on a charge of Battery (Domestic Violence).

Details: According to police reports, deputies responded to a 911 call regarding a domestic disturbance. The report alleged that an argument with his wife escalated, during which Anderson was accused of striking her and grabbing her neck.

Outcome: On February 9, 2026, the State Attorney's Office announced they would not file formal charges, citing insufficient evidence and a lack of cooperation from the victim/witnesses. The case is now legally closed
