Police Records Reveal Three Additional Women Alleged Past Incidents With Josh Jacobs

Hobart/Lawrence Police Department records released Friday night indicate that three other women contacted investigators with their own allegations against Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs following his May arrest. The documents were made public in response to a records request, a move first reported by local station NBC 26. These new accounts were added to the evidence file for the battery case that resulted in Jacobs pleading no contest to misdemeanor charges in September.

One woman told police she experienced an incident with Jacobs in January 2022. She described spending approximately 11 hours at his home, after which he became angry when she stated she had not visited for sexual purposes. According to her account, Jacobs slapped her, threw her phone into a swimming pool, and pinned her to a bed while stating he should kill her. She said she did not report the event at the time because she remained friends with Jacobs and feared her claims would not be believed.

A second woman described an April 2021 encounter in which she asked Jacobs to get tested for sexually transmitted diseases after his condom broke. She claimed he later removed her from the residence by grabbing her arms and pushing her against a wall. While she reported bruises to her arms and swelling in her rib area, police records from that specific incident noted that officers observed no visible signs of injury or damage consistent with a physical altercation.

A third woman, who met Jacobs through social media, detailed a May 2022 incident where he flew her to a residence. She alleged he grabbed her by the hair, dragged her, and scratched her chest and neck. She stated she did not report the incident to police at the time because she was not a U.S. citizen and Jacobs told her she could face deportation.

NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said the league would review these new allegations as part of its ongoing investigation. The team placed Jacobs on the commissioner's exempt list in August, causing him to miss the first six games of the season. Jacobs' attorneys, including David Z. Chesnoff, issued a statement noting that the Brown County District Attorney had the uncorroborated allegations for months and determined that only two misdemeanor charges were warranted. Jacobs returned to the field two weeks ago, scoring twice in a win over the Carolina Panthers and celebrating with a move he said was modeled after the gospel song "Break Every Chain."
