Jerry Jones Reveals He Wasn’t Wearing Seatbelt In May Car Crash
Video has emerged in which Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones can be seen admitting to police that he was not wearing his seatbelt during the car crash he was involved in last May.

“You had [the seatbelt] buckled behind you but you weren’t wearing it,” an officer says to Jones.
“That is correct,” Jones responded. “That is correct.”

“He just U-[turned],” Jones said. “He just simply U-ed right in front of me. I hit him broadside. I’m so happy he’s not hurt.”
Jones was cleared of any wrongdoing in the accident.
