    Blah.

    Someone just wants a pay-out. I'm not defending RJ but whoever the guy is that claimed this, will just receive a lot of money and this will go away.

    "Why would he press charges? I never press charges when RJ is on top of me, choking me."

    The gay jokes have been there since he was at Arizona, but they got really bad last year when Joumana leaked/planted a story to the papers about him being gay.

    There was an article saying a player on the nets roster was gay.
    But they didn't name names, I think it was either Jefferson or Collins.

    That was all Joumana's doing and it was clearly targeted at RJ

    Incident Report

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>TMZ has learned that NBA All-Star forward Richard Jefferson is under investigation by Minneapolis cops for allegedly choking a clubgoer -- then threatening to kick another guy's ass.

    According to one witness, Jefferson got in a "minor verbal disagreement" which escalated to the point where Jefferson was on top of the patron, allegedly choking him.

    According to the report, the New Jersey Nets star left the club, and then encountered the witness, who asked Jefferson to remain until the disagreement was sorted out. The witness says Jefferson responded, "Say another word, I will kick your ass."

    Minneapolis PD tells us Jefferson is under investigation for "assault with significant bodily harm." No charges have yet been filed.

    A rep for the Nets tells TMZ, "We have no comment."</div>

    Honestly, that sort of stuff happens at clubs all the time. The difference this time is that Jefferson is a household name with money.

    Because she's a self-centered bitch with no problem slandering people.

    Not saying Jason was an angel either, but she's insane.
