He is scheduled to be arraigned Aug. 7.Earlier this month, the World Boxing Council announced Garcia was being expelled after being accused of using racial slurs, allegedly making offensive comments about Black people and Muslims in comments livestreamed to social media.Afterwards, he posted an apology of sorts on X.'I was trolling I want all the killing to stop,' Garcia wrote. 'I love everyone sorry if I offended you.'In June, the New York State Athletic Commission suspended him for a year after he allegedly tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs, which he has denied. He was arrested at the Waldorf Astoria that same month.'Kinda funny both trump and I are in jail,' he posted to X after being taken into custody. 'I don't know if he is in jail but I know he got convicted This sucks, But I love Jesus I will be okay.'In 2021, Garcia was the World Boxing Council's interim lightweight champion.
