War Machine has attempted to commit suicide while in jail.

Christy Mack Makes First Public Appearance Since Ex-Boyfriend's Assault

The former MMA fighter is awaiting trial for the attempted murder of his ex-girlfriend, porn star Christy Mack, and her friend, Corey Thomas. This week he was found lying unresponsively in his cell.

On Oct. 16, law enforcement sources told TMZ Sports what happened. According to the report, a Clark County Jail officer was patrolling near War Machine's cell, when he found him sitting on the ground with his feet resting on his bed. Upon further inspection, the officer noticed War Machine's face was purple and there was a linen material around his neck, which was tied to the leg of the bed.

After going into the cell, the officer cut the material and removed it, allowing for War Machine's breathing to continue with less of a strain. The ex-MMA fighter reportedly attempted to speak. The officer then found multiple letters, assumed to be suicide notes, scattered about his cell. War Machine's attorney claimed one was written for Mack.

War Machine is currently on suicide watch and being held in a medical isolation cell.

He entered a not guilty plea in early September in a Las Vegas courtroom, and is facing 32 charges, including two counts of attempted murder, battery, strangulation, kidnapping, coercion, burglary and sexual assault.

He could be sentenced to life in prison if found guilty.

Mack is on her way to recovery after multiple facial reconstructive surgeries. She made her first public appearance mid-September at an event for Face Forward Foundation, which supports victims of domestic abuse.
