Tito Ortiz Update: Tito and Jenna Jameson Recant

Posted On: April 30, 2010 at 8:21am

I stated in my last piece detailing the arrest of “The Huntington Beach Bad Boy” Tito Ortiz (15-7-1) for domestic violence that we would update this story as news came out. Today celebrity news site TMZ reported that Jenna Jameson and Tito Ortiz have recanted their stories.

Jenna Jameson had accused Tito of injuring her in a domestic dispute but told TMZ “What actually happened has now been dramatically distorted and misinterpreted and remarks that both Tito and I made after the police arrived reflect the state of shock that we were both in”

According to the report Tito is now backing off his original statement that Jenna is an OxyContin addict. The story being told now is that he found two pills and may have jumped to conclusions. Jenna stated that the pills were very old.

According to Tito’s lawyer, Chip Matthews, the whole thing “was a big misunderstanding”

Many news outlets and fans alike had begun to crucify Tito after the arrest. Like I stated in my earlier piece, in order to report accurately and keep from hurting the lives and careers of those involved we must wait until all the facts come out before making any judgments on the matter. Innocent until proven guilty comes to mind when faced with reporting on stories such as this one.

Stay tuned to Fighters.com for more information on this developing story.
