A Knife and a Threat

According to records, the incident unfolded in a rather intense manner. Griffin is accused of holding a knife to the victim’s throat, a situation no one wants to find themselves in! The details were laid out in a warrant, highlighting that Griffin allegedly had the weapon and showed a clear intention to cause harm. “Probable cause was established” through statements from the victim and testimonies which shed light on the chaotic moment.

Behind Bars

After the incident, Griffin was taken into custody and booked at the J. Reuben Long Detention Center.
