‘Brother Jones’ says he wasn’t violent, but new video shows he was – and the Grand Jury agrees

Share this article...

In June of 2020, Justin Bautista-Jones, better known as ‘Brother Jones’ locally, was one of the publicly visible (often by design) protestors at the State Capitol. He received a lot of pushback from his own community after it was discovered he was often only making appearances when he knew there would be media coverage, and eventually had a falling out with one of the other most visible female members of the group. Throughout the entire time, he has faced over a dozen charges but always denied that he was violent – despite multiple assaults, assault on an officer, and reckless endangerment charges. In the newly obtained video, one of his assaults was captured, and presented to the Grand Jury – and he was indicted on two counts of reckless endangerment.

Jones held his own press conference on Wednesday when he turned himself in and garnered the attention of some small outlets who portrayed the charges as outlandish and unjust. The video, however, clearly shows evidence to substantiate the two charges levied against Jones.

While jones does face these and more serious charges such as assault and assault on an officer, there are certain charges which do seem an overreach given the circumstances. The District Attorney has maintained multiple other charges against Jones, including trespassing, disrupting a meeting, and aggravated littering. While most would agree those charges should likely all be dismissed, it appears they will instead be used as leverage in a plea – a common practice in Nashville and most other cities.

In a statement, Glenn Funk related that his office does not intent to prosecute peaceful protestors. ][emphasis added]

    I hope someone runs over those jackwads. These marxists are cancer who need a dose of their own medicine.

    What happened here?

    Tennessee loses again allowing a law breakers back in.

      Tell me what part in the video you see that jones is the guy using the cone? Also, why doesn’t the article show any evidence at all, not even the case#? It’s just words the author typed

      Did these lawmakers receive death threats from the Satanic Globalist Power-Elite New World Order WORLDWIDE ORGANIZED CRIME SYNDICATE, who secretly call themselves the KINGDOM OF SATAN?
      The Satanists intend to destroy the sovereignty of all nations and RULE the entire world with their NEW WORLD ORDER, GREAT RESET, TOTALITARIAN HELL ON EARTH, complete with the MARK OF THE BEAST. REVELATION 13:16-18
      PRAY 🙏 to recognize the secret servants of Satan, the members of the Globalist organized crime syndicate, who have sold their souls to Satan for power and wealth.

    Really anything to make the metropolitan council look dumb. You have a criminal and sexually harassing man elected and running again for the highest office in the land. He stated when your rich you can grab a woman by the pussy and get away with it. He has 34 felony charges against him really. So let’s see all the charges you are accusing Jones of are misdemeanors or less. If that is even him. Show his face.

      Are you jealous? It’s probably true he could touch any pus-sy he wants. If a woman It’s him, that’s on them. You just sound like a jealous man who can’t get his own pus-sy. Time to move on to another subject this is old news. Geez!
