Jenelle Evans’ attorney has issued a statement explaining why the reality star was arrested earlier this week. According to Amy S. Lawrence, Miss Evans landed behind bars because her former fiancé, Nathan Griffith, brought Jessica Henry, his new girlfriend, to her home to pick up his things and an altercation took place.
Jenelle Evans adds another arrest to her already impressive rap sheet and according to her lawyer, her ex-fiancé, Nathan Griffith, is to be blamed. Amy S. Lawrence, who represents Evans, revealed that her client spoke to Mr. Griffith on Thursday afternoon and warned him not to bring Jessica Henry, his new girlfriend, to her home in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
Apparently Griffith, who is the father of Evans’ 13-month-old son, Kaiser, got angry during the conversation and hung up. To the Teen Mom 2‘s star big surprise, moments after the phone call, Griffith, and his new lady showed up in her driveway and a heated exchange took place between the former lovers.
At some point during the verbal argument, Henry got out the vehicle to confront Evans, who attempted to throw some water at her face. According to the attorney, while tossing the water, the glass slipped out of her hand, and it landed on the other woman’s head and injured her.
The 29-year-old woman picked up the glass and hit Jenelle Evans. Here is the lawyer’s version of the events that took place:
“She was at the house and had just got Kaiser [the 13-month-old son the pair share] down for a nap, and looked out the window and she was with him. And so she called him and asked him to please leave and he hung up on her. And then he pulled in the driveway and so she walked out and she had a glass of ice water in her hand, and it’s my understanding that he got out and …. had a verbal altercation.”
It is not clear, who called the police, (rumors claimed it was Griffith who contacted the authorities), but when they arrived on the scene, they decided to only arrest the TV star.
The Horry County Police Dept. in South Carolina issued a brief statement explaining why one woman was arrested and not the other:
“She was assaulted by her boyfriend’s ex, who threw a drinking glass at her head, causing injury.”
Evans was charged with assault and battery in the third degree and was taken to the J. Reuben Long Detention Center and later transferred to Surfside Jail in Myrtle Beach.
According to the lawyer, Evans threw the water at Henry because she felt threatened by the father of her child. Evans, who also has a 6-year-old son named Jace from a previous relationship, has been arrested a total of 13 times in the past five years.
This new arrest will not help Evans’s case as she fights to regain custody of the little boy from his grandmother.

Please take this baby away from both of these idiots.
She is a stupid white trash moronic whore who should never be allowed to be unsupervised with her children.
MTV is stoked and laughing all of the way to the bank. They are corporate whores who glorify this dumb bitch and her constant profound idiocy. Thank heavens for parental controls on media sources.
Well, it’s easy to blame Janelle. But if you will pay attention to her Mother, it’s no wonder that Janelle is a mess. All her Mother does is yell and scream. Janelle will be trying to say something and her Mom just yells. Jace has been exposed to it his whole life as well as Janelle. It’s true she got off to a bad start being pregnant so young and having no support from Jace’s Dad. But she has worked hard at getting straightened out. She’s sober and got her degree. Nathan has rage issues and I think his buff body may be a result of body building drugs which do cause rage. He should never have brought his new girlfriend over because he knew Janelle would be furious.
She didn’t get a degree, she got a medical assistant certification (to my knowledge) and her mother has stepped up and taken care of Jace and is at least a better role model than Janelle will ever be.
There is a lot of selective editing on this show. Janelle’s mother should be praised for taking care of Jace for the last 6 years. If she screams occasionally, she has earned that right. Janelle can drive a sane person insane.
At least the little guy is loved by his grandmother. Where would he be without her?
