The world started judging Dana White for the incident. However, since the new advancement in the story, the news may calm down a little more. According to reports, there may not be any further disclosure regarding the details of the altercation due to Mexico’s laws on domestic violence.
What exactly does Mexico’s law say about Dana White’s incident?
The law pertaining to domestic violence in Mexico doesn’t allow for much public opinion. In fact, the case would not even be considered unless it’s filed or shared by the victim themselves. The culture values internal privacy. “The onus to bring evidence is always on the victim,” Gonzalez, a political scientist, told ESPN about the Mexican law on domestic violence.
Although the law’s morality is arguable in nature, it played out in favor of the White family. Thanks to this system, they will not find any random intrusions on their matter. Neither will Dana White be dragged publicly for an incident he found himself in. “It’s her job to report, and in Mexico, that process isn’t easy,” Gonzalez said about Anne White. Following this, it looks like we won’t be getting any further details about why the incident happened.
