Skai Jackson’s domestic violence case has reportedly been dropped after prosecutors did not find enough evidence to pursue the initially scheduled trial.
Skai Jackson will not face any charges after she was reportedly arrested on suspicion of domestic violence. The former Disney Channel star, who played Jessie and Zuri on the Bunk’d series, was taken into custody on Friday, August 9, after allegedly pushing her boyfriend twice at Universal Studios Hollywood. After reviewing camera footage, law enforcement officials deemed her the “main aggressor” in an alleged fight against her partner.
According to a new report from TMZ, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office has dismissed the domestic violence case, saying there isn’t enough evidence to start a trial. They also said they can’t file charges against her because Jackson has no criminal history. Furthermore, her boyfriend, who is the alleged victim in the case, has not suffered any injuries and has also refused to cooperate with prosecutors, leaving nothing to pursue in the case.

What do we know about the fight between Skai Jackson and her boyfriend on August 9?
The detective handling the case also previously told Fox News Digital that although the couple did not deny the events of the incident, they tried to downplay it. Furthermore, sources told TMZ that when asked about the incident, Skai not only denied anything serious but also said that they are happily engaged and expecting a baby together.
In their initial moves to control the situation, security personnel detained Jackson and her boyfriend at Universal CityWalk until authorities arrived on the scene. Jesse Allum, 22, was arrested around 6:30 p.m. local time on a charge of spousal abuse. He was released from custody a few hours later after posting a $20,000 bond.

Her alleged boyfriend was possibly a scammer and involved in money laundering. It turns out that she also reportedly deactivated her Instagram account after fans discovered her page.
