Sources revealed that Tiffany Boone was said to have felt so unsafe with him that she needs her fiance Marque Richardson while shooting scenes with Mitchell.
Besides Tiffany, several other artists, including Nasim Pedrad, Anna Camp, and Robbie Amell, made a negative compliment about the actor. Jason eventually got fired from Showtime's The Chi and his upcoming Netflix movie.

However, the accusations were undeniable to Jason. In November 2019, he appeared on The Breakfast Club, where he talked that he did not get a fair chance to defend himself before getting stranded from Netflix's Desperados.
During the show, he revealed that he was in Mexico with his female co-star who got full drunk. And, he made sure that she got home, which back slapped him so hard later. Other than that, the actor assured nothing happened.
