“That Wasn’t Me,” Says Nora Ford
Marcus was accompanied by a white woman during the incident, sparking speculation that model Nora Ford had been seen with him in the past. However, Ford denied involvement, posting on her Instagram Stories:
“That wasn’t me. I’ve been in Las Vegas for a week. Please stop.”
During the arrest, Marcus attempted to leverage his father’s fame, shouting:
“I’m Marcus Jordan. I’m Michael Jordan’s son. I’m not doing anything wrong. I’m just trying to get home and I took a wrong turn. Clearly, we’d like to get our car off the damn train tracks, which we weren’t trying to be on.”
The entire exchange was captured on video. This is not the first time Marcus Jordan has faced legal issues related to substance abuse and reckless behaviour. His repeated run-ins with the law have drawn significant public attention, given his family’s high-profile status.
