SDPD said he was found masturbating in public, vandalizing cars and possibly under the influence of something
A co-founder for Invisible Children was detained in Pacific Beach Thursday for being drunk in public and masturbating, according to San Diego Police Department.
Jason Russell, 33, was allegedly found masturbating in public, vandalizing cars and possibly under the influence of something, according to Lt. Andra Brown. He was detained at the intersection of Ingraham Street and Riviera Road.
Brown said Russell was acting very strange.
Police said they received several calls yesterday at 11:30 a.m. of a man in various stages of undress, running through traffic and screaming. Police described him as "in his underwear."
Several people attempted to calm him down and when officers arrived they said he was cooperative.
"He was no problem for the police department however, during the evaluation we learned that we probably needed to take care of him," said Brown at a press conference. "So officers detained him and transferred him to a local medical facility for further evaluation and treatment."
Invisible Children's CEO Ben Keesey released a statement after 1:40 p.m. on Friday saying:
“Jason Russell was unfortunately hospitalized yesterday suffering from exhaustion, dehydration, and malnutrition. He is now receiving medical care and is focused on getting better. The past two weeks have taken a severe emotional toll on all of us, Jason especially, and that toll manifested itself in an unfortunate incident yesterday. Jason’s passion and his work have done so much to help so many, and we are devastated to see him dealing with this personal health issue. We will always love and support Jason, and we ask that you give his entire family privacy during this difficult time.”
Russell is one of the the founders responsible for the "Kony 2012" video that went viral last week. He is described on the organization's website as a co-founder and "our grand storyteller and dreamer." Russell is also described as a Christian and father to two children who wants to have nine more children with his wife he calls his "best friend for over 23 years."
The video "Kony 2012" calls for the capture of the Ugandan LRA leader whose fighting tactic involves kidnapping and torturing the country's innocent children.
Russell spoke with NBCSanDiego explaining how the movement was exploding at the organization's headquarters in San Diego.
"There are hundreds and thousands of propaganda - posters, stickers, buttons, t-shirts, that we are putting in boxes and are shipping all over the world," Russell said in a March 8 interview.

PHONY KONY OBAMA CRONY...........
That whole KONY thing is starting to bug me.
I *hate* having my good instincts played. We all want to help, especially kids and others who can’t defend themselves.
People who exploit this good in us should be dragged through the streets by their genitals.
Livescience.com was praising these clowns yesterday.
All this fuss was....let me see if I can get this right:
Provide political cover for George Soros arranging for US Special Forces to go hunting for a Christian fighting Muslims (but gone now for SIX YEARS) in order to facilitate oil development to profit him...?
OK so...
1. Lies
2. aggression against poor Africans
3. Hijack of US Special Forces
4. Dirty oiiiiiiiillllllll
5. Pursuit of money
6. Enrichment of a Nazi informant against Holocaust Jews
Niiice...! That really is quite a handful
***
Based on the police report, it sounds like this libtard would enjoy that.
Always follow the money. I've had friends buy that kit he offers, I just wonder where that money is really going.
When I read the headline, I hoped he was arrested for things they found out about the organization.
You get it.
BREITBART LIVES
PT Barnum said it best....*there’s a sucker born every minute* ______today its like every second one is born, many end up as democrats...or actors ....but I repeat myself...all democrats are actors...
If he'd resisted arrest, he would have been................
Sounds like it sells a lot of bling...............
No, that starts after Spring Break in Panama City, Fl............
Democrat?
Well, we just found out a whole lot about their organ...izers..............
If you have to ask...........
Response: This could form the basis of a final scene in a movie.
Masturbating in public and vandalizing cars. . .for the kids. The Kony 2012 psy op is collapsing so fast I don’t think the “day of action” would make it to March 20th, nevermind April 20th.
