Photo By John Hoff Though I was not present in the courtroom for an interesting verbal exchange about missing JACC equipment and records, I learned of it. The conversation happened in the course of a motion hearing, in which the never-say-die subject of the purloined JACC property came up YET AGAIN, and Defense Attorney David Schooler--trying so hard to get JACC's stuff back, never mind getting anybody prosecuted--told Plaintiff Attorney Jill Clark that, maybe, HYPOTHETICALLY, the "Old Majority" faction might...
...possibly "know somebody who knows somebody" who can say where the stuff might be, and make arrangements to have it returned?
Schooler added he might be willing to (oh gee) not raise counter claims, civil claims. He could talk to his clients (most of which are on the "New Majority" board) to pass a board resolution promising not to pursue legal action.
Jill Clark said something like, well, she'd bring what Schooler said to her clients.
One really has to wonder how long this elaborate game of pretend will go on. Yes, Virginia, there are JACC records but they are not in the hands of JACC.

Whoever stole the missing property from the community needs to be tried, convicted, and do actual jail time. For one thing, the message needs to go out that crimes committed in the name of seedy political maneuvering are still crimes, and can't just be swept under the rug. Without some kind of legal accountability, the perpetrators will just go on preying on one Northside neighborhood after the next. For instance, "Reverend" Staten's conviction for check fraud at least keeps him in a background role.
