Jacob Rodriguez’s Ex Girlfriend Comes Forward
It seems that the saga with Jacob Rodriguez is continuing with new details on his misconduct. Now, Craig Jones has posted Jacob’s ex-girlfriend Peyton Leiser’s full account of the incident.
Peyton was going to stay quiet, but Craig himself reached out to her after hearing the rumors about Jacob. Apparently, the incident with Rodriguez had been going on for months before the story broke.
On top of the various porn folders that included photos of female teammates, Leiser also claimed Jacob abused her. She also claimed that Jacob’s brother, Nick Rodriguez tried to cover for his brother and accused her of lying.
Peyton Leiser’s Statement
For those not on Instagram or following Peyton or Craig, here is her full statement on Jacob Rodriguez’s sexual misconduct.
“First and foremost, I did not want to make a statement regarding Jacob Rodriguez, let alone a second one. Jacob Rodriguez put out another video which has misled people to believe that he was asked to leave because he simply downloaded pictures off Instagram. This was only part of the story which resulted in false information being circulated, and blame being placed upon myself and other women at B-Team.
1. The secret vault contained Instagram images and explicit images. Multiple photos were created, organized by female names, to which pornography that resembled the female was placed into their named folder. To my knowledge, AI was not used and the photos were not secretly taken.
2. These photos were discovered in September 2024.
3. Between September 2024 and December 2024, I said nothing to anyone other than family and friends that I confided in regarding the traumatic details of my relationship with Jacob. I did not go to B-Team with these details.
4. After months of feeling sick and disgusted, I decided to reach out to Nick Rodriguez on December 17th, 2024. I was physically ill keeping information from him and acting like everything was okay in his presence for the past few months. I explained to Nick what I had saw and let him decide how he wanted to deal with his family matter.
5. I quietly left B-Team the following day on December 18th, 2024 after I spoke to Nick. When I cancelled my membership, Jacob or the details stated above were not mentioned. One of the rumors circulating is that I ran to the owners of B-Team requesting that Jacob be removed from the team, this is false. In fact, I returned to B-Team to compete at a show and with Jacob sitting mat side mid February 2025. I wanted to move on.
6. Jacob and my relationship ended in December 2024 after discovering more disturbing information regarding his behavior. Our last communication was in February 2025, as Jacob spent the last months pleading for forgiveness and promising change as he had done our whole relationship.
7. Again, I quietly left B-Team in December 2024. I was contacted by Craig Jones in March 2025. He asked me about some rumors that were circulating about Jacob Rodriguez. After providing him with my side of the story, they spoke to Jacob, Nick, as well as other B-Team members before swiftly removing Jacob Rodriguez from B-Team. Even after his removal, I remained silent about the situation.
8. Physical and emotional abuse occurred. He would push me, intimidate me, and pin me down. Other times, he would prevent me from leaving the house by blocking the doorways or knocking my belongings off my shoulder.
9. It was brought to my attention that Nick and Jacob were accusing me of lying and being crazy. Instead of focusing on the issues, they went straight to protecting Jacob’s image and I took this as an attempt to prevent me from coming forward. This is exactly why most women say nothing. This behavior not only disgusted me, but hurt me as well. Did I make the video to vindicate myself? Yes.
10. People are accusing me of trying to destroy Jacob’s career. Jacob’s actions/behavior and his alone is what prompted the B-Team owners to make the decision to remove him.
11. The story was made public by a statement released. I did not release this statement. I decided to speak up as the women of B-Team were being harassed. No woman involved deserves to be harassed or blamed.”- Peyton Leiser
