Jackson Mahomes, the younger brother of Kansas City Chiefs quarterbackPatrick Mahomes, is out on bond hours after he wasarrested on charges of aggravated sexual batteryon Wednesday.
The NFL star’s younger brother had been accused of forcibly kissing Aspen Vaughn, the owner of the Aspens Restaurant and Bar Lounge in Overland Park. He was also accused of shoving a waiter in a separate incident.
“We have provided law enforcement with the tools and evidence they need to evaluate the claims against Jackson,” Davies said in the statement. “Every interaction between people needs to be placed in the proper context. Releasing a short clip of any video does not provide proper context. We have faith in the process and look forward to a swift resolution of the matter.”
