Will Smith has a criminal history and it’s out thereafter he landed a slap on Chris Rock’s face at the 2022 Oscars for throwing an insensitive joke at his wife Jada Pinkett Smith. Will Smith was cool with the joke until Jada gave him that eye indicating she wasn’t happy about Chris’ joke. Will had to act fast and he did.
From Will Smith’s criminal history via MTO News, he wasn’t ‘Mr. Nice’ guy and still isn’t.
In fact, MTO News confirmed that Philly Will was involved in a brutal attack in his hometown of Philadelphia that left one man nearly blind back in 1989 and now, nearly twenty-five years later, new details are being revealed.
According to police, Will got into a verbal dispute with record promoter William Hendricks which led to Will allegedly allegedly ordering that his bodyguard, Charles “Charlie Mack” Alston to attack him.
According to the producer, he was left with a fracture of his left eye orbit and was hospitalized and received six stitches.
Will, who won his first Grammy Award just days before the alleged assault, was arrested and charged with aggravated assault, recklessly endangering another person, simple assault, and criminal conspiracy.
Fortunately for Will, the charges were later dropped.
“Will had to spend a night in the cell at the West Philadelphia police station with other inmates waking him up all night long and asking for his autograph,” an insider tells the National Enquirer regarding Will’s prison stay. “It was the worst night of his life. He wants to forget it ever happened.”
In a 2005 interview, Will opened up about the assault saying, “It wasn’t my fault. That’s what they all say! But it wasn’t my fault. This is back in Philly. One of my buddies beat up this dude, and I was there.That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.”
From what happened at the just ended Oscars, Will Smith is still Will Smith.
As we have heard a million times Will is “West Philadelphia born and raised”.
