Well, that didn’t take long. The much-anticipated October Surprise in this year’s Virginia state elections arrived - like clockwork - yesterday.
October 1.
And it was ugly news for the Jay Jones campaign. He’s the Democrat candidate for Attorney General who’s in a tight race with incumbent Attorney General Jason Miyares.
Turns out that at about 1 a.m. on Friday, January 21, 2022, Jones was clocked doing 116 mph in a 70 zone on I-64 in New Kent County.

I’m curious to see where this story will take us, if anywhere.
The is loberal city SOP. There are so many samples out there over the years of democrats behaving badly who get “community service” which consists of working in democrat party “charities.”
I used to live right next door, in Mattaponi - and I attended Rappahannock CC...long ago, though.
Who was the Judge??? Need to out the judge and push pressure on the judge for allowing Jay Jones to use 500 hours find raising for himself as community service. Only way to nail Jay Jones is to embarrass the judge
The most shocking thing here is that he was ordered to do 1,000 hours of community service. That is off-the-hook. For speeding! Yeah, I know it was 116 mph, but dang.
This just broke today. The author of the article also hosts a local talk radio program. The judge’s name wasn’t mentioned, but I’m confident that will come to light in due time.

Do you know who I am??? conversation starter given no doubt
The case was continued out two years. I suspect that was so an attorney friend could come in as a substitute judge and do this deal,
Two years of continuances. Unheard of. I bet the judge was a substitute judge, not a retired judge but a lawyer with a robe who sits when needed. No driver’s license suspension! Unbelievable. Six months to a year would be normal for this. Anywhere in Virginia this speed would be worth 10 days to 30 days in jail. By the way, when this happened, his father was a Circuit Court Judge.
The 1000 hours is not written on the summons decision. I don’t think it existed. Usually a jail sentence is suspended on condition of doing community service for a real charity and if you don’t do it the suspended jail time can be imposed as active. Without something hanging over his head he has no reason to do community service. But he really didn’t do any. He worked for his own PAC.
The district court clerk’s office in New Kent has a public record of who the judge or substitute judge was.
Kerry: I think the “community service” is a hoax. It’s not written on the summons decision and not entered into the record of disposition, unless I am missing it. If it is not written it is not ordered. Only Jay Jones is saying it was ordered and he did it. I think that is a lie, and could really be his undoing in his AG race. That will be your next story on this.
And find out who the judge was from the district court clerk. I bet there is a story there.
