Jason Brown, koji je zaustavio Jona Jonesa te mu je dao pet prometnih kazni, nakon čega je Jon završio na sudu zbog kršenja uvjetne, u više navrata je optužen za rasno profiliranje.

Jon Jones je vidio sve to na vijestima, i nije šokiran ovom spoznajom.

"Policajac Brown se našao u vijestima u Albuquerqueu nakon što su novinari iskopali koliko se puta našao u problemima zbog rasnog profiliranja. Nisam netko tko će igrati na rasnu kartu, no u isto vrijeme nisam iznenađen ovim saznanjem nakon našeg susreta. Gledao me je u oči i optuživao za stvari za koje smo obojica znali da nisam ih napravio, osjećao sam kao da me zajednica iznevjerila, osjećao sam se bespomoćno, pomislio sam kako istina nema nikakvu moć nad njime. Sada mi je lakše razumjeti zašto mnogi zamjeraju policiji. Policajac Brown je gotovo vlastoručno uništio moje povjerenje u policiju. Ja sam čak i krenuo u školu kaznenog prava, htio sam i sam biti policajac. Srećom, neće mi jedna osoba uništiti mišljenje o cijeloj grupi. Samo mi je drago što se napokon baca svijetlo na ono s čime sam se nosio te večeri."

 

Officer Brown all over the news in Albuquerque after reporters dig up how many times he has been in trouble for racial profiling in the past. Being a father of biracial children, I'm definitely not one to pull the race card. At the same time, I'm not necessarily surprised about this discovery after the run in I had with him. Having him stand there, look me in the eyes and start accusing me of several things him and I both know I didn't do made me feel let down by the community, made me feel powerless, he made me feel like what was actually true had no power over him. Now it's easier for me to understand why so many people hold resentment towards law enforcement. Officer brown almost single-handedly ruined my trust in law-enforcement. The sad thing about it is, I actually went to school for criminal justice, I wanted to be an officer myself. Fortunately I know better than to let one person ruin my views of a whole group. Just glad people are finally bringing light to who I was dealing with that night.
