DUI Arrest[edit]

I added a sourced bit about his recent DUI arrest. I think that is enough detail, pending any further coverage or fallout. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:41, 22 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Youngest elected official in Michigan?[edit]

The article currently says, "In 2015, at the age of 20, he was elected and sworn into the Inkster City Council, becoming the youngest ever elected Michigan official." However, the Michael Moore article says that Moore was elected to the school board in Davison, Michigan, at the age of 18 in 1972, which would make him a younger elected official in Michigan. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 23:50, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In addition, Michael Sessions was elected mayor of Hillsdale, Michigan, at the age of 18 in 2005. --Mattschonert (talk) 12:17, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Arrested again for bringing handcuff key into jail (after bond violation) 09/14/21[edit]

Jones, 26, was taken into custody during a hearing for violating his bond a third time. Sheriff Michael Murphy said the key was found during intake.

The prosecutor authorized additional felony charges after the discovery of the key. Jones' attorney entered a not guilty plea during his arraignment Wednesday.

He was given a $100,000 cash or surety bond and ordered to not possess any weapons.

Jones must also surrender any items used in the course of duty by law enforcement officers. He served as an auxiliary police officer in Inkster.
