War Machine fails to get sexual assault, attempted murder and burglary charges dismissed

The Ultimate Fighter and Bellator veteran's legal team failed to get several charges dismissed and the former Jon Koppenhaver is headed to trial on September 16, accused of savagely attacking his ex-girlfriend Christy Mack.

War Machine, or as his legal team likes to refer to him, Jon Koppenhaver, tried and failed to have four of 34 felony counts dismissed in a hearing yesterday in Nevada. He failed as Clark County District Judge Elissa Cadish ruled there was sufficient evidence to go to trial on the charges of attempted murder (x2), sexual assault and burglary. The Las Vegas Review Journal was at the hearing.
