Three Time Convicted Prostitute Jelora Jade Clark Arrested On Auto Theft Charges...

Photo derived from court watch document and blog post by John Hoff

Jelora Jade Clark, DOB 12/30/82, who has been convicted of prostitution at least three times, was released from jail recently after being formally charged with auto theft.

This (alleged) car theft incident achieved brief fame around the world because the guy with Clark (the one purportedly behind the wheel of what turned out to be a BAIT CAR) tried to tell officers the car was ALREADY STOLEN, therefore he couldn't steal a stolen car. 

Apparently the steering wheel had been "cracked" previously on the bait car, leading the other suspect (Joe Anthony Arnold) to conclude the car was "already stolen." So consider the moral argument, here.

He who steals from a thief is not a thief himself, but in the right. (See Ali Baba v. 40 Thieves)

Therefore, ergo, ipso facto, YOU CAN'T CHARGE ME!

Fascinating argument. I'd like to see where an argument like that could go in an appeals court context. However, the car was in fact the property of the Minneapolis Police Department, cracked steering wheel notwithstanding.

But in regard to Jelora Jade Clark...
Who names their kid "Jelora?" That just SOUNDS like a prostitute's name, like "Jezebel."

Jelora is no stranger to the legal system. Here's her online court record, below.

Not all of these represent convictions, but she's been convicted three times of prostitution.

Jelora lists her address as 2125 Aldrich Ave. N. on the jailhouse roster. The property in question is a home owned by Webster Jeffrey.

The owner of 2125 is now:

DEUTSCHE BANK NATL TRUAST CO
1525 S BELT LINE RD
COPPELL TX 75019

I doubt she lives there. Last year, I would have believed she did. But months ago, the property was condemned and I don't see anybody coming in and out of there anymore. Jeff used to own this dumpy piece of real estate but lost it for a plethora of reasons. After looking it up, I'm shocked the city thinks they could possibly tax it for a worth of 80 grand. They would have to pay ME 80 grand to own that place.

Believe me, every time I use address information from the jail roster, I have to say they reportedly, purportedly, allegedly live at that address...that they are "listed" at that address...etc.

There is apparently little to no effort by the system to make sure arrested people give accurate addresses. I'm finding out some of the addresses don't even EXIST so, yeah, in this case maybe an old address on a drivers license that should have been updated long ago?

Or something that was never true in the first place?

As I said in a recent post about somebody who reportedly, purportedly, allegedly lived in Keith Reitman's Ugly Ass Chocolate Brown Building...

Even if the address information is false, all the same, what addresses people pick to use falsely reveals a lot. It's like saying, yeah, I think I can get away with using THIS address because nobody at that address gives a damn.

Well, this blog gives a damn and I'll keep listing the addresses and digging into them. If people want to get on this blog and talk about whether that person REALLY lives at that address, well, that's all part of the issue, part of the discussion.

But I have every right to pull address info off the jail roster and write about these alleged criminals.
