Back in May, Jackson Mahomes, the 22-year-old social media influencer and brother of Patrick Mahomes, encountered legal trouble due to an incident at a restaurant in the Kansas City area. He was accused of reportedly pushing a server and kissing the establishment’s owner without her consent. As a result, he is currently facing three charges of aggravated sexual battery and one charge of misdemeanor battery. Following his initial court hearing, he was released on a $100,000 bond.
This incident sent shockwaves throughout the industry, seriously affecting the Mahomes family’s reputation. Unfortunately, it didn’t end there, as the restaurant owner also suffered a significant setback due to the incident.

With the unbearable loss, the restaurant is now closed until further notice. Jackson is set to appear in court for the second time on August 31st, awaiting judgment. His lawyers have declined to provide detailed comments about the restaurant’s outcome.
Jackson’s attorney firmly denied the allegations
The restaurant incident took place back in February, but it remained under wraps for nearly three months before becoming public. According to the restaurant owner, Jackson was a close friend of her stepdaughter and would frequently visit the establishment. On the day of the incident, the social media influencer entered Vaughn’s office while inebriated and forcefully kissed her three times, grabbing her neck in the process, which resulted in visible bruising.
