Keke Palmer has recently taken legal action against Darius Jackson, filing for a restraining order and seeking full custody of their son, Leodis as her security footage video went viral
In a positive development for Palmer, she was granted both requests last night. It’s worth noting that the restraining order is currently temporary and subject to review in December.

“Darius trespassed into my home without my knowledge or consent, threatened me, then physically attacked me — lunging for my neck, striking me, throwing me over the couch, and stealing my phone when I told him I was going to call the police."

In the interim, Palmer has been awarded sole custody of her child. However, potential changes in this arrangement may depend on the outcome of subsequent legal proceedings.
In her court filing, Palmer made allegations of multiple instances of physical assault by Darius Jackson. According to her account, one such incident involved Jackson grabbing her neck and attempting to seize her phone.
To substantiate her claims, Palmer included security camera stills as evidence, although these images may be distressing to viewers. The filing suggests that Jackson’s anger was triggered when Palmer showed him a photo of herself in a bikini, leading to an alleged episode of physical abuse.
Palmer Recounted
Palmer recounted, “In the bedroom, he slammed me on the floor and slapped my head from side to side. The next morning, he was standing at the bottom of the stairs near the front door, screaming at me as I was coming down the stairs. When I was almost at the bottom of the stairs, he grabbed me around the neck and body slammed me back onto the stairs.”
The temporary granting of the restraining order and custody is a positive step for Palmer’s well-being, and it remains to be seen how the legal proceedings will unfold.
The situation is undoubtedly sensitive, and we extend our best wishes to Keke Palmer and her family during this challenging time.
