This blogger recently caught wind of a disciplinary hearing against Jill Clark and some strong indications she might be, at the very least, ACCUSED of practicing law while suspended.

A recent tour of Clark's two blogs (Jill Clark Speaks and Jill Clark Continues) shows even more evidence of, well, SOMETHING...

Just as JNS blog had information before any other media entity which identified the shooter accused in a recent Northside murder, so does this blog have the name of the victim before all other news media.

Jeremiah Curtis, pictured above, is the victim. Two tribute pages have appeared on Facebook, which are IN MEMORY OF JEREMIAH CURTIS and IN LOVING MEMORY OF JEREMIAH CURTIS.

According to a source close to the family, Curtis and his baby mother had lived for a while at the house of Eddie Hubbard, who is a gay man. My source asserts there was "some kind of weird jealousy thing" between Eddie, Jeremiah, and the baby mother. In short, Eddie Hubbard couldn't have Jeremiah Curtis and that made him mad. The baby mother and Curtis were in the process of moving out when there was an argument over "some stupid thing," maybe about taking a trip to the drug store...

JNS blog has linked the name of a recent victim of Northside homicide, Ju-Chaun Ferguson, to the Facebook profile of a guy who called himself "Jdawg Ferguson." Click here for previous article.

Supreme Court To Hear Jill Clark Lawyer Discipline Arguments, IT'S PART SIX OF THE LEGAL EXCOMMUNICATION OF JILL CLARK...

Memorial, blog post by John Hoff

Well, it's about time for an update on Jill Clark, who was suspended from the practice of law due to her spectacular and well-documented mental health issues. Clark was a one-woman lawsuit machine against people who were aligned with the revitalization movement in North Minneapolis, but I've heard it said the Johnny Northside defamation lawsuit drove her over the edge.

God knows I'm perfectly willing to take credit where credit is due.

Since losing her mind, Clark has tried to BECOME Johnny Northside by being a blogger of sorts, but what her blogs lack in popularity they also lacks in clarity, readability, and relevance.

And yet Clark persists.

Possibly, she has also persisted in trying to be a lawyer even though she is suspended...

For weeks, JNS blog had the story all to itself about the arrest of Cory J. Bryant in a double homicide at an illegal after-hours nightclub, with alleged co-conspirator Dominique Sinkfield not known to be in police custody. It wasn't clear if Sinkfield was on the lam or a cooperating witness.

Now, mainstream media is reporting Sinkfield under arrest and in custody along with Cory Bryant. But JNS blog still has details nobody else has...

Turns out Sinkfield, also known as "D-Bo," was indeed a fugitive and reportedly fled the state. But he was apprehended and...

Ward 4 City Council Incumbent Barb Johnson Gets DFL Nomination On First Ballot, According To Facebook Chatter..

Creative stock photo, blog post by John Hoff

It is being widely reported on Facebook forums that Barb Johnson, who represents Ward 4 on the Minneapolis City Council and is the council president, has won the all-important DFL nomination. Word is this happened on the first ballot.

Barb Johnson, who was widely expected to face no candidate at all in the race since Troy Parker didn't appear to be running, was facing a candidate named Kris Brogan who has no qualifications worth noting other than residency. A blog called The Brogan Files appears to have made an impact on the race, arguably reducing Brogan to a marginal candidate who didn't appear qualified to hold office. The authorship of the blog remains unknown.

It is unknown if Brogan will continue in the race despite the (reported) drubbing at the DFL convention or if she will wisely drop out. Given how effective The Brogan Files has been in the fate of this council race, JNS Blog believes we will see a continued "blogification" of city council races in the future.

One Out-Of-Town Dirtbag Kills Another Out-Of-Town Dirt Bag, Now Hennepin County Has To Pay For The Murder Trial Plus Freezer Space In The Morgue (NOT NORTH MINNEAPOLIS RELATED, THANK GOD)

Grayhound bus station, Chicago, blog post

I saw a Chicago address on the jail roster recently and noticed the dude was charged with MURDER. Hoping to get lucky and turn up a story related to North Minneapolis, I obtained the criminal complaint. Well, it turns out the murder happened in SOUTH Minneapolis.

So it's KIND of lucky, in a way.

Lucky it didn't happen in MY neighborhood.

Digging into the circumstances of the murder charge (click here for criminal complaint) led me to conclude there hadn't been enough media coverage of this incident, so I aim to fix that.

The murder happened in South Minneapolis on November 7 of last year. Police responded to a call of gun fire and found a man lying dead in an alley. The dead man was named Michael Hayden and subsequent investigation determined he'd been killed by a Chicago resident named Steven John Williams.

Click here for a Star Tribune article about the arrest. 

What the article doesn't tell you which becomes clear from reading the criminal complaint is...

Patrick Timberlake Sentenced To Eight Years, But Gets One Last Laugh On His Jailers...

Patrick Carl Timberlake, who was a member of the "Skitz Squad" formed for the purpose of revenge and retaliation on behalf of their murdered friend Juwan "Skitz" Osbourne, was recently sentenced to eight years for a shooting spree that injured two people. KSTP reported the sentencing, but other media entities apparently decided Timberlake got enough coverage during his actual guilty plea.

Timberlake was "released" from the Hennepin County Jail on May Day, no doubt boarding that big bus to St. Cloud where new prisoners are categorized and eventually parceled out to various facilities, rather like the processing of fish. I'm not sure how this happened, but the last few weeks of his incarceration Timberlake's home address was listed as 2017 Russell Ave. N.

2013004532

TIMBERLAKE, PATRICK.CARL

2/6/1996

2017 RUSSELL AVE N, MINNEAPOLIS, MN 55411

2/20/2013.13:14

That address does not actually exist. In fact, a Google search for that address only brings up two previous editions of the Hennepin County Jail Roster.

Very funny, Mister Timberlake.

We'll be laughing for the next eight years. 

Kejuan Raymond Watkins Of 3818 Lyndale Ave. N. Charged With Robbery, Complaint Describes A Car Chase With 10 Shots Fired...

On April 20th, a day when nothing much good seems to happen, a guy whose initials are M.S. was hanging around an apartment in Brooklyn Center with "several other males." One of the males, Kejuan Raymond Watkins, was holding not one but TWO handguns.

Watkins tapped M.S. on the leg and asked, "What have you got?" (This according to the criminal complaint, click here)

M.S. struggled to get control of the guns. Another guy named Montez Eugene Brown was there, also holding a gun, and yelling, "SHOOT HIM! SHOOT HIM!" as Watkins struggled with M.S.

During the struggle, Brown hit M.S. in the face with a gun, causing M.S.'s lip to bleed...

Authorities In Rural Blue Earth County Arrest Three In Bizarre Gas Station Riot, North Minneapolis Resident Davon Jones Faces Five Charges...

 A trio of thugs, at least one of them from North Minneapolis, have managed to make criminal celebrities out of themselves in rural Blue Earth County, Minnesota and face a raft of charges related to a bizarre riot at a gas station.

Click here for the criminal complaint.

On April 28 at 2 in the morning, Officer Steven Hoppe of Mankato was called to a report of shots fired at the Kato Ballroom, which is (I should point out) is the premiere private event center for that city, serving the community for 58 years. Click here to enjoy their photo gallery. 

On his way to the scene, Hoppe saw a large group of males and females "standing toe to toe" at the Holiday Gas Station as though involved in a confrontation. (In reading the complaint, it seems implied though not directly stated the disturbance at the Kato Ballroom had spilled over to the gas station, especially since a gun was involved and, well, turns out Davon Jones had a gun. Allegedly) Officer Hoppe pulled into the parking lot, arriving at the same time as a Minnesota State Highway Patrol Officer Gabe Cornish.

The crowd proceeded to rush the gas station...
