Rapper Jim Jones Pleads Guilty To Disorderly Conduct!

Jim Jones

According to NorthJersey.com, rapper Jim Jones plead guilty today in Fair Lawn Municipal Court to a disorderly conduct charge dating back to an arrest outside his home in February. Judge Steven C. Schechter imposed a fine of  $841 to settle the disorderly conduct charge as well as two other active warrants that   were outstanding in Jones’s name. The police report indicates that, Sgt. James Corcoran observed a parked car with a parking summons on the windshield. The car had not been moved since the snowstorm on Feb. 8. The summons was issued on Feb. 6 for a parking violation. Corcoran was in the process of having the vehicle towed because he considered it to be abandoned when Jones asked the sergeant what he was doing. After Corcoran explained, Jones agreed to remove the vehicle from the road and pay the towing fee. At that point, Corcoran learned that Jones had two active warrants. One was a $43 warrant for failure to remove snow from the sidewalk  in 2011. The other was for $150 and was issued for failure to yield to an emergency vehicle from Paterson in 2010. Upon learning of the warrants, Jones became belligerent and uncooperative, according to police. Jones provided false information to Corcoran and attempted to walk away when he was being placed under arrest, so says  the police report. Jim was taken into custody and was charged with obstruction and disorderly conduct. After being transported to police headquarters he was released after posting bail. He later received a motor vehicle summons for having an abandoned vehicle.

Jim Jones Arrested Near Home For Disorderly Conduct

Harlem, New York rapper Jim Jones was arrested earlier today near his home in Fair Lawn, New Jersey.

According to a report from the Fair Lawn-Saddle Brook Patch, the Diplomats alum was arrested earlier today outside his New Jersey home. Jones was apparently charged with disorderly conduct and obstruction involving two outstanding warrants for his arrest. Sgt. James Corcoran was responding to a parking complaint over Jones’ snowbound vehicle, which was illegally parked in front of his residence. After Jones approached the officer, Sgt. Corcoran ran his name through a police database and found two warrants for his arrest involving an auto vehicle violation and failure to remove snow from his sidewalk. The report indicates that Jones “got out of line” with the officer, denying the warrants’ existence and refusing to travel to the police headquarters to settle the warrants. As a result, the Dipset emcee was taken into police custody. Lt. Derek Bastinck of the Fair Lawn Police Department explained that residents with outstanding warrants of this nature are given the chance to comply with police and pay the necessary fines at the station. If they refuse, however, they are to be taken into police custody. “If [people with oustanding warrants] agree, we’ll just have them come down and pay what they owe, but if they don’t agree, they’re placed under arrest,” Bastinck said. This isn’t the first time Jim Jones has been arrested for an auto-related issue. Last February, the rapper was arrested for driving with a suspended drivers liscense in New York City.
