Jordana added that she “felt relieved that he was there” in jail because she thinks “a lot of the people that are around Andy are more dangerous than people in jail.”
She went on to allege that Dick, while they went out to dinner Saturday, was in “rare form” stealing cutlery, wine glasses, plates and asked for “a doggy bag that he could put all of that in” to go. Jordana claimed in the live stream that Dick got “into a fight with [another person]” and there was a metal chair involved, adding that the person was hospitalized after. Referencing the alleged fight, she said, “He could have killed him.”
“I knew that night wasn’t gonna end well,” Jordana added.
