The relationship between WNBA star Rickea Jackson and NFL rookie James Pearce Jr. has taken a dangerous turn. On February 7th, Pearce Jr. was arrested after allegedly ramming Jackson’s car repeatedly. He faces five felony counts from the February 7 incident, but his lawyers have professed his innocence. Now, even more details have come to light with Rickea Jackson’s latest petition, revealing exactly how she feels.

Earlier this week, ESPN reported that at least seven 911 calls preceded Pearce’s arrest. Jackson filed a petition for protection against her ex-boyfriend, Pearce Jr. In the petition, she says she was “in fear of my life,” and that if the court didn’t intervene, she believed “James will kill me,” according to ESPN. The Los Angeles Sparks star also wrote that Pearce “verbally and physically abused me on more than one occasion” and threatened to kill, harm, and injure her and to place a bag over her head, according to the court filing.

Jackson also explained the February 7 incident that led to Pearce’s arrest, saying that she saw Pearce following her in his vehicle as she drove home and that she called 911 and instead drove to a Doral, Florida, police station “because I knew James was going to hurt me. ” She has been granted a temporary injunction, and a hearing for a permanent one is scheduled for April. 

Because of this, Pearce is not permitted to contact Jackson or be within 500 feet of her residence and has also been warned not to come within 100 feet of her car at any time. He has also been instructed to surrender any firearms, with ammunition, to the nearest police department. Violating the order constitutes criminal contempt of court and could result in arrest, fines up to $500, or up to 6 months in jail per violation. 

Repeated breaches could escalate charges further. If the permanent injunction is approved, it would be extended further and even affect Pearce’s felony criminal case. However, that’s not where the disturbing details in the report end.

Rickea Jackson Was Allegedly Offered $200,000 To Stay With James Pearce

According to reports, Rickea Jackson and James Pearce broke up after 3 years of an on-again and off-again relationship. But the affair turned sour as Pearce allegedly began stalking and harassing Jackson. 

Jackson has also said that Pearce committed to giving her “up to $75,000” to visit with him, as well as “$200,000 to remain in a relationship with him” just before the February 7 incident, with her also saying that Pearce suspected she was cheating on him. Tensions escalated during a confrontation in January. She wrote in the petition that Pearce took away her cellphone and belongings and pulled her hair. Jackson explained that she wanted to break up immediately after that confrontation, saying, “James did not listen to my request and instead went on a campaign of threats, physical assaults, and abuse against me.”

Pearce now faces five felony charges: Two counts of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, one count of aggravated stalking, fleeing and eluding police officers, and aggravated battery of a law enforcement officer. He is subject to nine traffic citations and a misdemeanor count of resisting an officer without violence to his person. The Atlanta Falcons have not taken any disciplinary action against Pearce yet. ESPN reported that the NFL team, Jackson’s lawyers, and Pearce’s attorney declined to comment regarding this petition for protection.
