Jewell Jones accused of bringing handcuff key into Livingston County jail - mlive.com
HOWELL, MI — New felony charges against state Rep. Jewell Jones accuse the Inkster Democrat of bringing a handcuff key to the Livingston County jail.

Jones has been charged with bringing a weapon into jail and attempting to escape custody, and his bond has been set at $100,000, according to the 53rd District Court in Livingston County. 

Both are felony charges.

• The 26-year-old state lawmaker was placed in police custody Tuesday over a bond violation and is currently awaiting trial for felony drunken driving charges.

Livingston County Sheriff Michael Murphy described Jones as “a real piece of work, and an embarrassment to all elected officials,” in a statement released Wednesday.
When asked (by a media moron) whether Jones meant for the stunt to be tongue-and-cheek, Murphy didn’t hold back in his assessment of Jones’ behavior.
“I don’t know how anyone could construe bringing a handcuff key into a secured facility a joke…. That’s like going down to metro airport sitting in the terminal and yelling ‘bomb,’” Murphy said.

• Jones admitted to drinking alcohol and tampering with his tether in violation of bond terms Tuesday and was sentenced to three days in the Livingston County jail.
• Prosecutors accused Jones of testing positive for alcohol three times on Sept. 3, and said he tried to tamper with his alcohol monitoring device days later on Monday, Sept. 6, court documents show...
• Jones is facing trial on charges that include drunken driving, reckless driving, possession of a weapon while under the influence and resisting police after his arrest in April. He was released on bond under conditions that included random drug and alcohol testing....
• During his April 6 arrest, Jones was tackled, stunned twice with a taser and sprayed in the face with pepper spray along Interstate 96 in Livingston County’s Handy Township after he was seen driving erratically.
• Jones is also accused of illegally having a firearm in a cupholder of his console while drunk...Read all!!!

Horowitz: As vaccinated COVID hospitalizations soar, government blocks the one option that works - TheBlaze: 

Any thinking person should be asking why our government is not doing more to make the monoclonal antibodies more available as people get sick with this virus at record levels. Over the past few weeks, I've been inundated with emails from people who say the testing requirements and limited hours of operations made them lose critical days in the battle against the illness. When you know the answer to this riddle, you will then comprehend why the same players are vociferously against any form of preventive and early outpatient treatment.

Watch: Police Issue Trespass Notice to Grocery Shopper Who Refuses to Wear a Mask: 

To what lengths are authorities willing to go to get citizens to comply with their mandates? In Washington state, they’re willing to send police to a grocery store to issue trespass notices to those who don’t wear masks.

Washington Gov. Jay Inslee, a Democrat, reinstituted mask mandates last month for the unvaccinated and vaccinated alike.

Video obtained by Ari Hoffman of the Post Millennial and posted to Twitter on Thursday shows multiple police officers asking maskless customers to leave a Vancouver, Washington, grocery store.

Why Is There Such Reluctance to Discuss Natural Immunity?

Why Is There Such Reluctance to Discuss Natural Immunity?

"If you’re among those of us who aren’t tribally invested in Covid politics but would like good information about when life will resume as normal, chances are you’re interested in herd immunity. 

You’re likely not interested in having to rely on the Internet Archive for good information on herd immunity. 

Alas, it’s become a go-to place for retrieving, as it were, previously published information on herd immunity that became inconvenient post-vaccine and then virtually Memory-Holed.

Over the past 15 months, the litany of Experts’ True Facts and Science regarding various aspects of SARS-CoV-2 has changed more often than the starting lineup of a bad minor league ball club.
