Mayhem escapes jail

[Nimmy]

HONOLULU, Dec. 22 — A holiday gift came early for Jason “Mayhem” Miller in the form of a ‘Not Guilty’ verdict from a Honolulu jury on Friday.

Miller, who was facing up to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine, was found not guilty on charges of first-degree burglary and assault in the third-degree after being arrested last December for allegedly breaking into his girlfriend’s house and attacking her male companion, Casey Hewes.

"I wasn't trying to hurt that guy,” Miller explained from the stand. “There is no way I was trying to hurt that guy."

After “accidentally” kicking in the apartment door, Miller says Hewes rushed towards him, apparently trying to use his high school wrestling skills to bring Miller to the ground.

"It looked kinda like a football tackle,” Miller testified. "He was trying to grab at me."

In a truly bizarre, but ultimately successful demonstration, Miller and his attorney, David Hayakawa, reenacted the fight on the courtroom floor. The two showed the jury what happened, and even pointed out a few techniques Miller could have used if he were truly trying to injure Hewes.

Miller claimed he only acted in self-defense after being tackled onto a futon, causing it to break and leaving the two men on the floor.

"Now I am stuck inside the futon and he starts gripping onto my head and jamming all of his shoulder meat into my face and covered up my nose and my mouth," said Miller, who turns 26 on Christmas Eve. “I couldn't breath at all … in a normal situation … you're not inside of a futon."

Not able to breathe, Miller says he bit Hewes’ arm to escape a headlock.

“I just want to … let everyone know that I’m getting my life back on track,” a relieved Miller told Hawaii’s KGMB9. “You know, [I’m] moving forward … with my career … with everything.”

How do you accidently kick in a door? I think if somebody popped through my door right now especially if he was my girlfriends ex boyfriend I would most likely go at him as well.

If he did that to my house, then he better have had a gun. My 100 pound German Shepard reacts badly to idiots that kick down my door (or even just knock on it). Miller would have had a hole bitten into his butt. Still, the whole thing smacks of a dude out of control. But, maybe he can get his act together. Maybe the beat down from Trigg will have woken him up to what he could lose.

When I saw this thread title I immediately thought "holy crap he escaped from jail?!"

I don't care really though. I remember when this first happened how so many people were overblowing this situation like it was the end of the MMA world and how he "disgraced the sport" or whatever. The guy got drunk and did something stupid and got caught. It happens all the time. At least he isn't Ray Lewis and murders some dudes and gets away with it. Or Owens attempting suicide...err "accidentally overdosing" his meds.

At first, I thought that this thread was about Murray because I confused Miller with Murray. Then I read the first post and got it straight. It would have made a great story for Murray to have escaped from prison after he was involved in such a high profile robbery. Isn't Murray in a jail in Morocco?

its strange he is wanted in the UK for a £56,000,000 security cash heist, but as morroco and the UK have no deportation treatys he is held over there on accounts of having hashish and cocaine on him, he will serve his sentence there before someone flies over to arrest him, he will serve at least 25 years in jail here id imagine.

Awesome, good to hear this is behind him.

He's lucky he didnt get shot. People forget a lot of americans own guns and regardless of what some state laws say about shooting intruders, some homeowners might shoot someone like Mayhem.


And in Texas it's perfectly legal to use deadly force simply for tresspassing onto someone's property.

He beat them charges like Rockie.
