Broncos Pass Rusher Jonathon Cooper Pleads Not Guilty in Domestic Violence Case
The Broncos linebacker faces misdemeanor domestic violence charges after a cellphone dispute and conflicting accounts from police affidavits.
- Denver Broncos outside linebacker Jonathon Cooper pleaded not guilty on Monday to misdemeanor domestic violence charges in Douglas County court, days after his release on bond following a Friday appearance in the 23rd District Judicial Court.
- Parker police arrested Cooper and his girlfriend late Thursday night after an argument escalated into physical confrontation over alleged infidelity and damaged cellphones. Officers later determined there was insufficient evidence for assault charges.
- According to affidavits, his girlfriend claimed Cooper "grabbed her by the neck and held her against the wall for about a minute," while Cooper told police he "braced his neck against her neck" and bit her phone, causing "disabling damage."
- Attorney Harvey Steinerg requested an expedited trial date "as early as possible" to avoid training camp conflicts, while the Denver Broncos stated, "we are aware of the matter and gathering more information." The NFL is also in contact with the team.
- Cooper posted a Bible verse on Instagram on Saturday, writing, "I apologize to my family to my friends and my community." He faces a motions hearing July 6 with a potential jury trial scheduled to start July 22.
