Marcus Jordan pleads not guilty to DUI, cocaine possession and resisting officer after arrest on train tracks

Marcus Jordan, the 34-year-old son of NBA legend Michael Jordan, has pleaded not guilty to charges of driving under the influence (DUI), cocaine possession, and resisting arrest following his shock arrest earlier this week. Jordan was taken into custody after his Lamborghini SUV became stuck on a train track in Florida during the early hours of Tuesday morning, reportedly due to impairment. On Friday, court documents revealed that Jordan's legal team entered a not guilty plea on his behalf, per People.

His attorneys requested a jury trial and waived his first court appearance, with a pretrial conference for the DUI charge scheduled for March 20. In addition to the DUI charge, Jordan pleaded not guilty to a felony charge of cocaine possession and a misdemeanor charge of resisting an officer without violence. His attorneys have requested a jury trial for these charges as well, though no court date has yet been set for those proceedings.

The ex of Larsa Pippen even name dropped his father when an officer was forced to order him out of the car alongside a young woman in the passenger seat days ago. Marcus took to his X (formally Twitter account) to make his first statement since his run-in with the law. He wrote: 'I appreciate everyone reaching out. I’m focusing on @TrophyRoomStore right now and won’t be making any comments on recent media stories and my personal life.

'I sincerely appreciate your concerns & thank you for your kind understanding [trophy, trademark, and sparkle emojis]'. He also shared two images from inside his store including an art piece of the back of his father's iconic Chicago Bulls jersey. Marcus' Trophy Room store is a men's fashion store in Orlando, Florida focusing on his dad's Jordan Brand sneakers. He founded it in 2016. This comes a day after a bodycam revealed that Marcus had begged officers to help him get his $300,000 Lamborghini off a railroad track after speeding away from a traffic stop and crashing the luxury sports vehicle while drunk and carrying cocaine in his pocket.

Marcus took to his X (formally Twitter account) to make his first statement since his run-in with the law. Extraordinary body worn footage from one of the officers who arrived on the scene shows the Italian sports car completely stuck on the tracks, teetering on the edge of a steep drop. 'Let me pull over,' Jordan says to the baffled cop. 'You can't. You're buried,' the officer responds, as the female passenger suggests that Jordan 'at least move it to the right.'.

Jordan was eventually arrested and charged with DUI and cocaine possession after confessing to officers he'd spent the night at several establishments - including Rachel’s Gentleman’s Club. But before he was charged, Jordan pleaded with officers to help him get his car to safety when he learned it was directly in the path of an oncoming train scheduled to pass by in under 10 minutes. The duo were warned to get out of the car due to the danger of the oncoming train, but they failed to realize the seriousness of the situation.

Marcus Jordan begged officers to help him get his $300,000 Lamborghini off a railroad track after speeding away from a traffic stop and crashing while drunk and with cocaine in his pocket. The 34-year-old son of NBA icon Michael Jordan name dropped his father when he was ordered out of the car alongside a young woman he was with. Repeatedly, the officer reminds the duo that the car will not move, having been caught on the tracks with the back wheels now halfway buried in the dirt and rocks from being spun repeatedly.

'You want to get hit by a train?' the cop asks. With absolutely no urgency and after several more attempts by the officer to coax the pair out, they slowly get to their feet and step out of the car. But not before the woman makes one more plea: 'Baby,' she says, 'try to the right.'. Once she's out of the car and can survey the damage, she giggles and tells the officer: 'There's got to be a way to get the car out.'.

Moments later, Jordan has another idea, looking around at the three officers who are on scene to inspect the situation after they were alerted that Jordan had, moments before the crash, fled a traffic stop. 'There's four of us guys,' he says, counting himself and the officers, and not including his female passenger. 'We can push this motherf**ker.'. The first responders disagrees, saying his priority is now the safety of all involved as he tries to alert Sunrail of the problem on the tracks before the scheduled train approaches.
