Jabari Bird made his first court appearance in nearly two months on Wednesday as the prosecution announced new charges connected to his September domestic violence arrest.
Bird pled not guilty back in September to charges of kidnapping, strangulation, and assault and battery stemming from the alleged incident with his girlfriend.
On Wednesday, multiple reports indicate that Bird is now also being charged with making threats and witness intimidation that prosecutors alleged occur during that same incident.
