Pastor vs. Cult Leader: A Story About the Jonesboro Church War

                                         Joe Jeffers     When people hear about Jonesboro, Arkansas some know it because of an event called the Jonesboro church wars.

It’s become so common that there are even memes about the various cases that occur in the state.  This story in particular is in my opinion the funniest crime a Florida criminal has ever committed. It took place in a farmer’s market in Tampa Bay Florida, during it’s closing hours. Around 1 a.m., two men shattered the business office’s glass door. In the security footage you can see one of the men entering the store with only a tutu on, while the other wore an owl hoodie. The weird part is, their purpose was not to steal money like a typical store burglar would. All the men did while in the market was eat fruit and drink soda. Shortly after, they left the store. The man in the tutu was later identified as a 22 year old man named Jevon Ryner Jamison. He was then arrested and charged for criminal mischief, theft, and burglary. As for his accomplice, it was...
