Ravens Fan Jack Callis Faces Shocking Verdict: Commanders Fan Assault Trial Set to Decide Fate

Jack Callis, the Baltimore Ravens fan who was captured senselessly attacking two Washington Commanders supporters, will remain in jail while he awaits trial, a judge ruled Tuesday.

Callis, 24, was seen celebrating Baltimore’s win over their beltway rivals on October 13 by running up to two unidentified men in Commanders replica jerseys before punching one to the ground and throwing another against a brick wall.

He later turned himself in to Baltimore police on October 21 and was charged with first-degree aggravated assault and three counts of second-degree assault.

At a second bail review hearing, a Baltimore judge ruled that Callis is a danger to the public because of his cocaine and alcohol use and will therefore remain in jail pending his trial, according to The Baltimore Banner.

Baltimore Circuit Judge Yolanda A. Tanner said that she was not convinced that releasing him to outpatient treatment was a sufficient measure to address his substance use disorder.

‘Instead of using the time to tell me what’s new and what’s available, it was just a catfight today,’ Tanner said. ‘I’m just incredibly disappointed in what was presented by counsel.’

Tanner added that nothing had changed in Callis’s circumstances, other than a grand jury indicting him on one count of first-degree assault and three counts of second-degree assault.

At his first bail review hearing on October 23, District Judge LaTina Burse Greene had ordered Callis to continue to be held without bond.

However, she did state that she would entertain releasing him to an inpatient treatment program with 24/7 home detention.

The viral video shows Callis pursuing two men in Commanders jerseys after the Ravens’ 30-23 win over their Beltway rivals on October 13.

When he catches up with the pair, Callis knocks one man to the ground with a single punch before throwing the other Commanders fan against a brick wall.

The video ends with Callis flexing for the camera in a Lamar Jackson replica jersey and telling the camera: ‘I don’t lose.’

During this week’s second review hearing, Callis’s attorney, Patrick Seidel, slammed the Baltimore State Attorney’s Office for presenting the case to a grand jury just two days of the original hearing and obtaining an indictment, which he described as an ‘unprecedented move.’

‘I’ve never seen that happen in any case. Ever,’ Seidel said. ‘They’re trying to keep him incarcerated because of the high-profile nature of this case.’

The lawyer also hit out at prosecutors for portraying his client as an ‘evil person’ and ‘some alcohol, drug-fueled maniac.’ He accused them of making ‘gross misstatements.’

While Seidel admitted that Callis has openly acknowledged his struggles with drugs and alcohol, he claimed that he had a plan to address the issues that didn’t require his client to sit in a ‘cage’ for the next six months.

‘This is a fight that happened outside of a bar after individuals have been drinking,’ Seidel said. ‘There’s nothing special about it.’

Since the October incident, Callis has lost both his job and potentially his freedom.

Callis, an insurance salesman from the Beltway area, was dismissed by the firm of Maury, Donnelly & Parr after footage of the incident went viral.

According to online records, the 6-foot-3 Callis played college lacrosse at Roanoke College in Virginia.

DailyMail.com has also obtained Callis’ arrest records and mugshot from a 2022 incident in Florida, where he was charged with resisting an officer.

Assistant State’s Attorney Twila Driggins objected to Seidel’s presentation, insisting that prosecutors presenting a case to a grand jury for indictment was not out of the ordinary.

She also said that there were no bail conditions that would prevent Callis from being a risk to public safety and petitioned the judge to hold him without bond.

Driggins also dismissed a claim from Brian Thompson – another of Callis’ attorneys – who stated that his client had been on ‘couple week cocaine and alcohol bender.’

She argued that in a phone call from jail, Callis has told his father that his real problem was being disrespected.

‘The bottom line is this: you cannot have it both ways,’ she said.

Callis is being held in the Maryland Reception, Diagnostic and Classification Center and is scheduled to next appear in court on February 3, 2025.
