Although the probable cause affidavit has not yet been made available to the public, The Kansas City Star reported that police confirmed investigating the incident involving Jackson Mahomes back in February.

While Jackson Mahomes' attorney, Brandan Joseph Davies, declined to comment due to the court's orders, he released a statement in March denying the accusations against his client.

Aspen Vaughn, the owner of the restaurant in question, stated that Jackson Mahomes had been a frequent visitor to her establishment, where her stepdaughter works. However, things took a turn for the worse when Jackson allegedly grabbed her by the neck with enough force to leave a faint bruise. Vaughn provided The Star with a photo of the injury and a video showing Jackson Mahomes grabbing her by the throat and forcibly kissing her at least twice.

The Chiefs, for their part, declined to comment, citing the fact that Jackson Mahomes is a relative of a player but not a member of the organization. Patrick Mahomes has also remained silent on the matter and has not commented on Twitter.
