Skai Jackson Will Not Be Charged After Domestic Violence Arrest

Skai Jackson will not be charged after being arrested allegations of domestic violence due to lack of evidence.

Jackson and her boyfriend were seen on video having an altercation that turned physical last week at Universal CityWalk.

TMZ was told by The L.A. County District Attorney’s Office, “they’re declining to file charges because Skai has no criminal history, the alleged victim lacks injuries, and he’s refused to cooperate with prosecutors.”

Despite refusing to cooperate with authorities, Jackson was taken away where she was processed at the West Hollywood Sheriff’s Station.

Jackson was apprehended by the police and released hours later. Both she and her boyfriend denied any physical altercation—though the video showed otherwise. The two say they are happily engaged and pregnant.

“Based on the initial investigation, it was determined Ms. Jackson was the primary aggressor and was arrested for misdemeanor spousal battery,” an LASD spokesperson told the Los Angeles Times in a statement.

VIBE reported on Jackson’s arrest earlier this week saying, “In 2016 at age 14, the Disney Channel star was named to TIME Magazine’s Most Influential Teens list for her advocacy against cyberbullying. Leaning into more mature roles, last year, she starred in the film Sheroes as Daisy, who is introduced as “The Lost Soul” and described as a drug user exploring her sexuality.”

Jackson went live on Aug. 14 and dodged questions from fans. Amber Corrine of VIBE reported, “After a fan asked her about the incident between her fiancé and her at Universal Studios, she disregarded the question and spoke about a new show she finished filming instead. Fans began screenshotting the Live and pointing out that none of the “questions” she answered were visible on the screen.”
