Somebody out there knows what JNS blog loves for Christmas! INFORMATION!

So tonight it's an early Christmas because I am suddenly in possession of information I've wanted for a long time, which came figuratively wrapped in a big red bow. It is the old criminal complaint (known in Oklahoma as a criminal "information") about a serious drug and weapon incident involving Eric and Jerome Yzaguirre which happened in Atoka County, Oklahoma. Criminal pleas for both these young men stemmed from the arrest.

My regular readers will recall there is a long and twisted history with the Yzaguirres, involving actual and alleged criminal behavior by all three of the kids (Nicole, Eric and Jerome) wacky lawsuits filed by their suspended attorney Jill Clark, and even a recent shooting which very nearly claimed the life of Jerome.

Despite the persistently bad behavior of her brood, (or maybe BECAUSE of their bad behavior) their mother "Crazy" Terry Yzaguirre of the Mpls Mirror blog has been a persistently shrill critic of this blogger's attempts to clean up North Minneapolis.

I guess not a lot of excitement happens in Atoka County, because the criminal information contains a rich telling of the tale which happened May 1, 2009, just north of Boggy Bridge...

JNS BLOG SUPER EXCLUSIVE: "Purple Drank" Instagram Scam Was Likely Motive Behind Ladell Williams Shooting, In Which Eric Yzaguirre Was Wounded In Same Vehicle...

The time has come to tell the sordid tale, as much of the sordid tale as I know, about a likely motive behind the shooting of Ladell Williams in South Minneapolis. I've already written about how homicide investigators wanted certain emails in my possession and I turned those over, click here. 

In summary, there was a scam being operated on the internet which involved something called "Purple Drank," which is prescription-strength cough syrup containing codeine and promethazine mixed with beverages like Sprite and Mountain Dew. Pieces of Jolly Rancher candy are added for, I would assume, flavor and sweetness. The drink gets its name from the dyes in the cough syrup.

Who knew? If you want to read all about Purple Drank, which reportedly rocketed to popularity after gaining a following in the underground rap scene of Houston, click here for a Wikipedia article. 

So how does this all become a likely motive in the shooting of Ladell Williams?

Well...

Eric Yzaguirre, pictured on the right, was wounded a couple days ago in a South Minneapolis shooting. The shooting incident was covered in mainstream media but at this time I am unaware of any other media source besides Johnny Northside which has the names of the wounded and further details, including a fascinating possible motive...

Mpls Mirror Denounces Former Friends And/Or Allies, Disappears Into A Dark Hole Of Its Own Self-Created Loony Misery...

Normally, I ignore the Mpls Mirror, which is Terry Yzaguirre's attempt at blogging gloriously free of the conventional constraints of proper spelling, grammar and punctuation.

Yes, I'm quite aware the Mirror doesn't like me very much, and the feeling is mutual. So I don't comment on The Cracked Mirror or mention The Cracked Mirror except, for example, when writing about criminal charges leveled against Terry's children or the crazy lawsuits the Yzaguirre family has filed in the court with the help of troubled attorney Jill Clark.

(Want to file a CRAZY lawsuit? Get a CRAZY lawyer. Wouldn't that make a great advertisement on the back of a phonebook?)

But every now and then I do check the Mpls Mirror because, who knows? Maybe a stray nugget of info will turn up about Jill Clark and it will prove to be a lead to information when I write Part Fifty-Six Or Whatever It Is of The Madness of Jill Clark.

So at about 2 in the morning, I checked the Mirror. The latest article on the Mirror referred me to Terry's other blog, Unconventional Grandma.

Wow. Turns out I am still capable of being surprised by that category of people some of us just refer to as "The Crazies"...

The Day The Crazy Parade Ended, A Disturbingly Detailed Account Of What Really Transpired In City Council Chambers When CRA Overhaul Passed (Part One Of Two)

On September 21, the City Council passed a massive overhaul of the city's system for reviewing alleged police misconduct, as numerous mainstream media (including Channel 5, embedded above, reported in detail.

(ADDENDUM, NOVEMBER 3, STUPID VIDEO EMBED ISN'T WORKING AND IS BEING REPLACED WITH STOCK PHOTO. Channel 5, watch and see if I ever embed another of your videos) 

I'm here to tell you the colorful, boots-on-the-ground reality they didn't report, such as:

How Level Three Sex Offender Peter "Spanky Pete" Rickmyer took it upon himself to be a little city council gopher and distribute copies of Cam Gordon's proposed amendments...why the crazy Mpls Mirror lady wrote so critically about Channel 5 reporter Kate Renner...(OK, that's not hard to figure out, actually)...and some interesting background on rabid police critic Chuck Turchick, who was involved in breaking into a draft office in Alexandria, Minnesota in July of 1970.

It's going to be a wild ride.

Well, for a blog post about talking heads at a meeting, I mean.

Here we go...

Trouble, Woe, And Legal Heartbreak For The Family Of Anti-Northside Revitalization Blogger Terry Yzaguirre...

Stock photo and blog post by John Hoff

Woe! Woe to the house of Yzaguirre!

Terry Yzaguirre, who publishes the Mpls Mirror blog and seldom misses a chance to heap her harpie scorn upon individuals involved in the Northside revitalization movement, has family legal issues piling up like kitty doo doo in a neglected litter box. Not the least of her legal troubles is the fact "The Yaz" has Jill Clark as an attorney.

Clark is currently facing lawyer discipline charges and, in response, has started a blog that comes off as a final existential scream of legal existence as Clark's law career circles the drain hole.

Some background on the various legal cases would be helpful...



Brothers Jerome and Eric Yzaguirre were charged and convicted in the State of Oklahoma for having four pounds (!) of marijuana in their car while passing through the microscopic town of Caney in Atoka County. A gun was also found in the vehicle, and it was brother Jerome who took the fall over that.

In November, Eric was charged with domestic violence, click here for article. In a blog post published November 7, I wrote what turned out to be an eerily accurate prophesy:

-------------
This should be good. (Rubbing hands together)

Will Clark be alleging some kind of "conspiracy" against the dear lad for his mother's internet ramblings? Not unlike the deep and massive purported "conspiracy" against her other client, Level Three sex offender Peter "Spanky Pete" Rickmyer?
-------------

Those words were published on November 7. It was the next day, November 8, when Jill "Conspiracy Theory" Clark filed a lawsuit on behalf of Eric Yzaguirre against Hennepin County and others. The case was soon removed to federal court.

However, that's the case on behalf of ERIC. There appears to be YET ANOTHER case in federal court on behalf Terry Yzaguirre, and her drug transporting spawn Jerome. It's not clear to me whether (alleged) thieving daughter Nicole Yzaguirre is a party to that case or whether some things that (allegedly) happened to Nicole are just part of the pattern of facts.

A rather even-handed summary of the federal case can be found on the Courthouse News Service, click here.

(It's also possible this is the same case that involves Jerome and somehow more plaintiffs have been added. I do not have access to that info quite yet)

And so it is we have some relatively minor alleged criminality literally becoming a federal case in the hands of Jill Clark.

So what's going on with the various cases? I don't have info on the federal case (or cases) but here's what's happening back on the Hennepin County docket.

First, in regard to the tragic Nicole Katherine Yzaguirre, whose cell phone records are at the center of the controversy (and conspiratorial allegations) in the federal court case.

Nicole is charged with offering a forged check (aid/abet GOC) The charge was filed February 15, 2012. On February 23, there was a warrant issued and, on the same date, a notation of "fail to appear at hearing." Is this more Clarkian legal brilliance and strategy? After all, if you don't show up...how can they try you?

Currently, a first appearance is scheduled on April 30.

Meanwhile, brother Eric is facing a felony theft of property charge. At least it seems as though Eric shows up at his hearings. (Mom!!! Eric's sitting on my side of the court bench! Mom!!! Eric's sticking out his tongue at me!!! MOM, ERIC WON'T SHARE THE DIME BAG!!!!!)

Brother Eric is also facing charges of Domestic Abuse No Contact Order--Violate No Contact Order from charges filed October 28, 2011. It appears a $5,000 bond has been posted. Now here's where we see Jill Clark's flakey personality stamped on the record of the proceedings.

Attorney unavailable for the hearing on 12/19/11.

Attorney ALSO unavailable for the hearing on 2/13/12.

To be perfectly fair, I know Jill Clark has been making claims of medical issues of a god-knows-what nature. (Liver issues from being a drunk, if I had to take a guess) I've been scrutinizing online court records for a long time, and NEVER have I seen as many notations of "attorney unavailable" as I have with Clark's cases.

Right now the hearing on this charge is scheduled for 4/23/12. We shall see what happens with THAT.

In addition to the charges of October 28, there is a raft of charges from another alleged "domestic" filed October 18, ten days earlier than the OTHER case. There is the same notation of "attorney unavailable" for hearings on 12/19/12 and 4/23/12 but, additionally, the attorney is "unavailable" for a hearing on 2/1/12.

When a defendant has no excuse except for "Your Honor, the dog ate my lawyer," Clark is the attorney you want to hire.

It's almost easy to feel sorry for Terry Yzaguirre and her drug possessing, accused-of-thievery, accused-of-domestic-violence, loon-for-a-lawyer having family.

ALMOST.

Not quite.
