Judge Extends Restraining Order Against UFC Star B.J. Penn Filed by His Mother

  • On June 10, 2025, a family court judge in Hilo prolonged a protective order filed by B.J. Penn’s 79-year-old mother, Lorraine Shin, which prohibits the former UFC champion from entering the shared residence and from contacting his daughters until November 23, 2025.
  • The extension followed multiple arrests of Penn in late May 2025 related to alleged domestic abuse against Shin and violations of a previous restraining order, with Shin believing Penn suffers from Capgras delusional syndrome.
  • During the June 10 hearing, Penn appeared but refused to sign the amended order, requested to stay in the home while Shin was away, and was ordered to return to court for multiple misdemeanor and TRO violation charges.
  • Penn remains free on $6,000 bail covering three criminal charges, faces at least two contempt warrants, and prosecutors seek a court-ordered mental health exam amid concerns over his cognitive decline and refusal to accept a public defender.
  • The ongoing legal proceedings highlight serious family conflict and suggest continued court monitoring, with Shin expressing willingness for mediation and controlled contact while Penn remains under tight court restrictions.
