Does JACC have its hands full without the added burden of missing records and office equipment? See photo above for the answer to THAT.
Anne McCandless, "New Majority" JACC Secretary, ex-cop, and a powerful force of personality within the board, has fired off an email to a number of individuals--including the Minneapolis Chief of Police and the commander of the 4th Precinct--renewing her call for an active, aggressive police investigation into the, er, MIDNIGHT PURLOINING of JACC's records (hmmm, who would want those?) and office equipment. The email was sent "in the open" to a number of public officials and I happen to be on the recipient line. So it's going on the blog.
McCandless attached a copy of the police report...
...and I thought it would be informative to make that document available at the JNS Blog "PDF support site." Cut and paste the URL below to access that site and the document. (Usual grumbling about Apples, somewhat muted of late, though)

Below I have reproduced, verbatim, McCandless' call for a more active investigation, even if that means calling in the Hennepin County Sheriff's Department.
(To various, numerous recipients)
We are still waiting for an investigation into the burglary which occurred after Jerry Moore was fired as the JACC Executive Director and Ben Myers was ousted as the Vice Chair. We have a more evidence (sic) and even a witness to the crime, but still no police investigation.
Judge Porter has been pretty clear in his decision that the current JACC leadership is acting responsibly. Stealing the property of our organization is not legal and should be investigated and, if appropriate, charged. Since the City Attorney is not the charging body on a felony (last time I checked, Burglary and theft over $1000 was a felony), I can see no conflict of interest in
perusing this investigation.
If I am wrong and the City feels there is a conflict, perhaps Hennepin County Sheriff's detectives would help us out in
this matter. Please advise, ASAP. We need our property back or the perpetrators held accountable.
I have attached a copy of the original police report.
Thank you.
Anne McCandless
Is the "Jerry Moore" mentioned in this blog the same one who was recently mentioned in the closed Minnesota civil case 27-CV-HC-09-2559 ("SUMNERFIELD PHASE II LP vs Jerry Moore, John Doe and Jane Doe") dated 03/31/2009 (Hennepin Housing)? This is (was) an "Eviction (UD)" case by the way... if you dig into it there is Defendent ("Moore, Jerry" DOB 04/15/1977) but no middle name listed... it doesn't give an address but lists "Minneapolis, MN 55411" after the defendent's name... it also lists the date "04/10/2009" of an "Eviction Hearing (8:45 AM)" with "Result: Held"... just wondering if it's the same Jerry Moore...
ReplyDeleteHmm...
it's unbelievable to me that this isn't being aggressively investigated and prosecuted. i think it's definitely worth keeping the pressure up until it is resolved. it's like a big blaring sign reading "criminal 'leadership' will be tolerated on the Northside, and their activities will go unscrutinized."
ReplyDeleteto the first anon poster - well Sumberfield Phase II LP is probablly very possibly a busness entity name for the Heritage Park complex - most leased housing complexes have a "doing business as" (heritage park) different than the name of the actual corporation or partnership - in this case it looks like it's a Limited Partnership from the LP.
ReplyDeleteI knew Jerry Moore recently lived at Heritage Park as recent as January and February of this year.
It sounds highly likely that it is the same Jerry Moore.
Same name, same DOB. Becha its the same guy.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a no-brainer for the cops! Ben Myers signed 2-3 checks from the stolen checkbook after the computers and checkbook went missing. Seems like a good place to start. He sent an e-mail to the bank telling them he was authorizing them to cash another check for $1,000 (this one didn't go through because the New Majority had gained control of the bank account by that time).
ReplyDeleteIsn't Mr. Myers at least an accomplice, right? Are lawyers allowed to use stolen goods without any consequences? Are the Minnesota Bar's ethics folks okay with this kind of behavior by one of their own?
The answer is yes and no. Whereas he was smart enough to file the restraining order, he can always claim that HE had checks (in his posession) that HE generated and signed during (and immediately after) the timeframe that the theft of the JACC property occured. As such, he'll be covered by the legal fact that HE filed the restraining order, casting doubt upon the validity of the electons and was well within HIS rights to generate (and authorize) the checks. That will be his answer if he's asked.
ReplyDeleteEventually, in the end, the truth always comes-out about dishonest people with evil intentions and extremely poor moral character. And that's exactly what's happened here. Just be glad that you all had the tenacity to see it through and call BS to their corruption.
The important thing is that you have taken back the neighborhood from self-interested, corrupt leadership. Now do something with that fact to make sure it never happens again.
It seems to me that Jerry L. Moore and his council Mr. Meyers are playing a dangerous game of "chicken" using the legal system in this situation. All the more reason to encourage them to push the cases as hard and far as they can... there has to be a point where it will become legally clear who the criminals are here...
