Netizens vow to handle Darius Jackson themselves
Social media users were stunned by the allegations Keke Palmer leveled against Darius Jackson. Once the stills from the security footage were released, they were extremely disgusted and disturbed. While some hoped that Palmer was okay, others started scheming to take care of Darius themselves. Here are some reactions to the incident:
"Darius body slammed me onto the stairs by my neck": Keke Palmer
According to the documents obtained by People magazine, the restraining order stated that Darius Jackson had physically abused Keke Palmer multiple times. Last weekend, he reportedly entered Palmer's property without her consent and started verbally threatening her before he physically attacked her. According to the California superior court filing, Palmer wrote that Jackson was:
"Lunging for my neck, striking me, throwing me over the couch, and stealing my phone when I told him I was going to call the police."
The footage was played during the court hearing. As per the footage, once Palmer got up from being knocked over the couch, she ran after Darius to retrieve her phone, but the man nearly ran over her with his car.
Over the last two years, Jackson was alleged to have physically abused Palmer multiple times. Keke also attached still images from security camera footage that showed Jackson allegedly assaulting Keke Palmer while she was on a couch. People magazine also quoted Palmer saying that a separate footage from 2022 showcased Darius Jackson dangerously attacking her.
"Darius body slammed me onto the stairs by my neck," she said.
People magazine quoted a list of allegations from the documents, including an incident where Darius had allegedly broken Keke Palmer's prescription glasses and thrown her car keys across the parking lot after he allegedly suspected her of "flirting" with another woman.
She also details instances where Darius would allegedly bombard her with love but would quickly get upset and sl*t shame and gaslight her if she even looked at a man a "certain way" or talked to someone for "too long."
Darius had once allegedly hit Keke Palmer in front of their 8-month-old child and had even told the child profanities about her. Darius Jackson would also reportedly threaten to shoot himself with a gun if Keke ever left him.
