Jeremy Jackson arrested, charged w/ multiple felonies

Jeremy Jackson, who appeared on season four of "The Ultimate Fighter," wasarrested late last month and charged with seven felony offenses, including two counts of forcible rape.

The 26-year-old Jackson was apprehended on June 30 in Oxnard, Calif., and is being held in a Ventura County jail, with bail set at $1 million.

Officials with the Ventura County Sheriff's Department confirmed the arrest and charges with MMAjunkie.com (UFC blog for UFC news, UFC rumors, fighter interviews and event previews/recaps | MMAjunkie.com). Events surrounding the arrest were not made available.

In addition to the two counts of forcible rape, Jackson was charged with kidnapping to commit another crime, first-degree residential burglary, assault with a firearm, dissuading a witness by force or threat, and criminal threats. At his initial arraignment, three additional charges -- all felonies -- were levied against Jackson, which included two counts of sexual assault and one count of sex crimes (aggravated circumstances).

Jackson is due in Ventura County Superior Court again Wednesday, at which time he is expected to enter pleas to the charges.

Jackson's appearance on the fourth season of "TUF" was short-lived. UFC President Dana White kicked him off the reality show after he violated rules by leaving the fighter house to meet a woman.

He was invited back to fight on the season finale and suffered a neck injury in a submission loss to Pete Spratt.

Since that fight in November of 2006, Jackson (9-5) has fought just once, winning a Total Combat match in March of last year.

What a piece of shit.

what a surprise. That guy just seemed like a piece of shit to begin with.

lol. i remb during the seaosn he tried to make everybody feel bad for him, whata fucking rat.

rapists and molesters are the worst type of criminal IMO. I'm not saying he's innocent but i'm gonna wait until they sentence him until I formulate my complete opinion. Look at Leonard Garcia, I thought he'd be in jail forever but he ended up walking away.

Jeremy JAckson a rapist...POS! i cant say im surprised, apparently he's been a very troubled guy for a long time. i hope he gets it in jail cuz i despise rapists more then anyone on the planet. :angrrry:

Least he wont have trouble finding somewhere to sleep and eat in prison.

Sounds like another Charles "Crazy Horse" Bennett in the making..
