B.J. Penn in UFC fight (2010)B.J. Penn (L) of the U.S. fights with compatriot Frankie Edgar during their bout in the Ultimate Fighting Championship tournament in Abu Dhabi April 10, 2010.

UFC Hall of Famer B.J. Penn was arrested Friday in Hawaii, his home state, for the third time in six days as his family airs their concerns about his mental health.

Penn was previously arrested on May 25 and 26, both times on charges of abuse of a family/household member. Penn’s mother, Lorraine Shin, filed a temporary restraining order against him, and the May 26 arrest was because he violated the restraining order.

Penn was due to appear in court as a condition of his bail and he failed to do so, resulting in the third arrest Friday. Penn argued unsuccessfully that he did not come to court because he had COVID-19, according to KHON2.

Penn also requested a restraining order against his mother, which was denied.

Penn has claimed repeatedly on Instagram that his family was secretly murdered and replaced by impostors, which is the main symptom of a rare psychiatric order called Capgras delusion.

“I believe my son (B.J. Penn) is suffering from Capgras delusional syndrome (a psychiatric disorder in which a person holds a delusion that a friend, spouse, parent, other close family member has been replaced by an identical imposter),” Shin said in a statement to authorities. “He believes I’m an imposter who has killed his family to gain control of the family assets.”

Shin has claimed in court filings that Penn has stolen belongings from her bedroom and put glue into the deadbolt on her bedroom door in an attempt to keep her from entering it.

She further alleged that Penn used a bright flashlight to temporarily blind her when she wanted to call police, and he grabbed her arms and shoved her against the side of a car, causing a sharp pain in her back.

Konec majestátní série. Edmonton věří, že šampiony připravil o sebejistotu

„Florida zápasy dokázala velmi dobře docvaknout. Dostali jsme se do těžké situace,“ věděl kapitán Oilers Connor McDavid. Když ve 22. minutě Sam Bennett zvyšoval na 3:1 pro hosty, nevypadalo to pro kanadský tým ani trochu dobře. Ale Viktor Arvidsson za 67 sekund dokázal snížit a vrátit Edmonton do hry. A pak přišly na řadu dvě zásadní McDavidovy asistence. Na tu z 80. minuty, kdy v přesilovce trestal prohřešek Tomáše Noska Leon Draisaitl, už Panthers reagovat nemohli.„Takové věci se stávají, Tomáš hrál v play off výborně, byla to smůla a my potřebujeme jít dál,“ řekl o Noskově nešťastném vyhození puku přes plexisklo spoluhráč Brad Marchand. „Musíme se trochu zlepšit v hraní pod tlakem, víc rozhýbat nohy. My jsme začali jen tak nahazovat puky, oni se přeskupili a šli po nás.“Tentokrát to nebyla ta brutálně striktní Florida, která soupeřům nedávala šanci o obratu ani uvažovat. „Nesmíme tak polevit. Celý rok jsme byli opravdu dobří v tom, že […]

Caio Ribeiro ‘joga a real’ sobre Palmeiras e Flamengo na Copa do Mundo de Clubes: “Vai desagradar os torcedores”
