Jon Jones says he was the victim of racial profiling, claiming the cop who pulled him over for drag racing in New Mexico only targeted him because he’s black.

Jones posted part of a local news report to Instagram which claims Officer Brown of the Albuquerque PD has had several complaints filed against him for racial profiling in the past, and one person even sued him over it.

According to TMZ Sports, the APD has claimed Brown has no pattern of racial profiling.

Jones however says he’s convinced the March 24th incident in which he was cited for 5 violations including drag racing, was purely motivated by race.

During the stop Jones called the officer a pig and a “f**king liar.”

Officer Brown all over the news in Albuquerque after reporters dig up how many times he has been in trouble for racial profiling in the past. Being a father of biracial children, I’m definitely not one to pull the race card. At the same time, I’m not necessarily surprised about this discovery after the run in I had with him. Having him stand there, look me in the eyes and start accusing me of several things him and I both know I didn’t do made me feel let down by the community, made me feel powerless, he made me feel like what was actually true had no power over him. Now it’s easier for me to understand why so many people hold resentment towards law enforcement. Officer brown almost single-handedly ruined my trust in law-enforcement. The sad thing about it is, I actually went to school for criminal justice, I wanted to be an officer myself. Fortunately I know better than to let one person ruin my views of a whole group. Just glad people are finally bringing light to who I was dealing with that night.
