Marcus ended his weekend uploads with a mirror selfie. ‘Put on a happy face,’ he wrote. 

The milestone comes over three months after Marcus was arrested on February 4 in Florida for DUI and cocaine possession.  

Later that same month Marcus saw his cocaine possession charges altered after police determined the drug allegedly on him was ketamine and not cocaine, according to TMZ. 

It was initially believed that the white powdery substance on him was cocaine. Police did a field test on the powder which tested positive for cocaine.

However, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement has since established the drug was actually ketamine.

The mix up reportedly happens now and then as the two drugs have the same color and texture. It is not sure how this will change his sentencing as both cocaine and ketamine are illegal drugs, however TMZ notes the change could help Marcus as the state of Florida has classified cocaine as a schedule II drug and ketamine a schedule III drug. 

In light of the change, his charges has now been slightly changed – Rather than possession of cocaine, Marcus’ is now charged with possession of ketamine, DUI with property damage, and resisting arrest. 

Jordan was arrested after his Lamborghini SUV got stuck on train tracks in the early morning hours, allegedly due to his impairment.

Jordan’s attorneys have since entered a not guilty plea and requested a trial by jury while waving his first court appearance, a pretrial conference scheduled for March 20, according to People.

Jordan also pleased not guilty to felony cocaine possession and resisting an officer without violence, which is a misdemeanor.

He was arrested after police officers found his damaged SUV stuck on train tracks.

Marcus allegedly pleaded with officers to help him push his car off the tracks, but they refused, and he was arrested after failing a sobriety test.

During the interaction, Jordan dropped the name of his famous father while pleading with police to help him move his vehicle.

Marcus and Larsa began dating in January 2023, and went as far as to share their hopes for marriage, but they ended things in March 2024.
