ADDENDUM, FEBRUARY 20: This blog post originally described Antonio Timberlake as one of the "turd burglars" arrested at the scene of a Thanksgiving robbery. In fact, Timberlake was NOT involved in that robbery. Rather, he was associated with Navarr Ross--a known and convicted member of the turd burglarly ring--and committed eleven armed robberies, and in one of those robberies Ross was an accoplice. JNS blog strives for accuracy and when error comes to my attention, I jump to make correction. 

In a press release today by the Hennepin County Attorney, that office announced a "straight guilty plea" to 11 charges by Antonio Timberlake, age 17. The eleven charges stemmed from four separate robbery incidents. There was no deal with prosecutors and Timberlake could receive up to 172 months. Two of the victims received life-threatening stab wounds. 

Timberlake had some criminal fame rub off upon him by being associated with Navarr Ross, who was involved in the burglary of a Northside home. Neighbors (one wearing superhero pajamas) assisted police in keeping a passel of juvenile burglars trapped in a house until just moments before...

Navarr Ross, who became infamous as one of the "turd burglars" who committed a Thanksgiving, 2012 burglary at the home of a North Minneapolis senior citizen, is now accused of involvement in a high profile string of violent robberies. The criminal complaints, linked above, tell the tale but also provide a trail of clues to dig up even MORE info...

Final "Turd Burglar" Guilty Plea Entered, Turns Out We Don't Need No Stinking Trials...

According to a reliable source in a position to know, Navarr Jodiah Ross recently entered a guilty plea for his misdeeds in the Thanksgiving Day "turd burglary" incident on the 1500 block of Hillside Avenue North. (Unknown which of the burglars is pictured above) Ross pled guilty to trespass in the incident on Hillside Ave. N. but guilty to a felony in another case.

This is the final plea in the arrest of seven turd burglars and/or fecal trespassers and means none of the neighbors who assisted in the dramatic chase and capture will be forced to attend a trial, and neither will the victim of the burglary.

The name of the youngest turd burglar, a mere 12 years old, never appeared in court paperwork. The other names made their way to this blogger.

The incident took place on the block where City Councilman Don Samuels lives. Samuels, who is now running for mayor, was asked by neighbors to speak to the boys during their arrest. The councilman lectured the boys on the responsibilities of manhood, which generally mean protecting women and children instead of robbing and victimizing them. It was a speech that I would like to see amplified from the bully pulpit of Mayor of Minneapolis and directed at the crime and mayhem in North Minneapolis. 

Turd Burglar Math, JNS Blog Confirms SEVEN, Yes, SEVEN Turd Burglars Arrested...

The other day a maddening little Northside mystery was solved for me. If six turd burglars were arrested after a Thanksgiving Day burglary involving seven burglars, why were only four of them booked?

Two possibilities occurred to me: In the heat and excitement of the moment, the residents involved in calling police and momentarily trapping the burglars in the house (which was key in preventing a getaway, even one of the arresting officers said so) may have miscounted the number of turd burglars emerging from doors and a window.

Or, (second possibility) not all the burglars were booked because some of them were such little fish they may have been released to parents.

If a correction had been in order in regard to the number of burglars originally reported, this blog would have written a correction without hesitation...

No Honor Among Turd Burglars, And No Trial, Either...

Word comes from a reliable source that the four minors apprehended in the midst of a Thanksgiving Day "turd burglary" will all be pleading guilty. Some of the burglars will be testifying against their comrades. All the burglars will be getting probation, forced to pay restitution, and will have to perform community service.

This blogger earnestly hopes the community service will involve cleaning toilets. As for restitution, word is the replacement of the back door cost $467.17.

The burglars will also have to write a letter of apology and, if needed may attend rehab. I am very hopeful their letters of apology will find their way to my hands in the form of PDF files so let's all hope the turd burglars write better than they break and enter.

Furthermore (and this is probably the most humiliating) the burglars will be required to participate in the shooting of a music video for Charlatan of Larceny, a song inspired by their farcical attempts at burglary on Hillside Ave. N. and 22nd Ave. N.

OK, that last part is just me kidding around but, seriously, there's a song in the works.
