Majors' lawyer Priya Chaudhry claimed the mix of guilty and not guilty verdicts meant jurors did not entirely 'believe' Jabbari's account, and he still hopes to clear his name.
'It is clear that the jury did not believe Grace Jabbari's story of what happened in the SUV because they found that Mr. Majors did not intentionally cause any injuries to her. We are grateful for that,' she said.
'We are disappointed, however, that despite not believing Ms. Jabbari, the jury nevertheless found that Mr. Majors was somehow reckless while she was attacking him.
'Mr. Majors is grateful to God, his family, his friends, and his fans for their love and support during these harrowing eight months. Mr. Majors still has faith in the process and looks forward to fully clearing his name.'
But Jabbari's lawyer, Brittany Henderson, said 'justice has been served' through Monday's verdicts.
'We are thankful to the jury, the court, and the Manhattan District Attorney's Office for giving this case the time and attention that it merits,' she said.
It seems she attacked him? not sure about the harrassment though, maybe he tried to get her to drop the case

Bizarrely I think the harassment part is because he picked her up off the floor and put her back in the car
