Rampage Charged and Faces 3 Years

August 25, 2008 · Filed Under MMA News 

We all heard of Quinton “Rampage” Jackson’s strange police chase in California, soon after his unanimous decision loss to Forrest Griffin at UFC 86: “Jackson vs. Griffin” back in July.

Recent reports have stated that:

“Quinton Jacskon is charged with one felony count of evading while driving recklessly, one felony count of evading the police officer, three misdemeanor counts of hit and run, and one misdemeanor reckless driving ….. However, he was NOT charged with DUI.….And, a few days after the incident, a pregnant woman in the car he hit on the freeway had a miscarriage, but Rampage was not charged for that after an investigation revealed that the miscarriage was unrelated to the accident”

So now, Rampage faces a maximum sentence of three years in prison — If he’s convicted on all charges.

It was just really weird to see Rampage being arrested and next to his monster truck with this name and image plastered on the door. Just surreal.

The UFC and Dana White support Rampage in this time of difficulty, after all it was Dana White who immediately flew to California to bail out Rampage.

They assert that Rampage’s incident was due to a bout of “delirium” which was caused by a lack of sleep and too many energy drinks. (Let us this be a lesson for us all)

Not really sure what to think, I just hope everything works out for Rampage and he gets everything together.
