Skai Jackson has made serious allegations against her former partner, Deondre Burgin, seeking a restraining order in Los Angeles following a distressing encounter on Mother’s Day. In her court filings, Jackson accuses Burgin of a violent attack during which he reportedly pulled her hair, slammed her head against a car window, and punched her in the face while she was holding their three-month-old son, Kasai.
Jackson’s claims hint at a troubling history of abuse that she says began earlier in 2024, with weekly incidents involving choking, scratching, and physical assaults that included slamming her head against walls. She also accuses Burgin of damaging her personal property, such as her phone and television.
One particularly alarming allegation involves Burgin allegedly threatening Jackson while she was pregnant, demanding that she drink bleach to terminate the pregnancy and holding a knife to intimidate her, stating he would stab her if she screamed. Jackson recollects a harrowing experience where Burgin broke through a bathroom door to attack her, an incident she claims to have captured on video.
Adding to her fears, Jackson insists that at the time of their child’s birth, Burgin was incarcerated for a parole violation and had access to firearms, amplifying her concerns for her safety. She is asking the court not only for protection but also for mandated participation in a domestic violence program for Burgin, child support arrangements, and coverage of her legal expenses.
These allegations highlight serious concerns regarding domestic violence and the need for legal action to ensure the safety of both Jackson and her child. With increasing awareness around such issues, Jackson’s pursuit of justice may inspire others in similar situations to seek help and protection.
