Austin-based conspiracy theorist Alex Jones was booked into the Travis County Jail on a charge of driving while intoxicated just after midnight Tuesday, the Travis County sheriff’s office said.
Jones, 46, was booked at 12:37 a.m., said Kristen Dark, spokeswoman for the sheriff’s office. The driving while intoxicated charge is a class B misdemeanor, she said.
His bail was set at $3,000 but he was released on bond at 4:11 a.m., Dark said.
An arrest affidavit for Jones says a sheriff’s deputy responded at 10:10 p.m. Monday to a western Travis County residence for a disturbance reported by Jones’ wife.
His wife had told the dispatcher they were in a verbal fight that had been physical earlier in the day, the affidavit says. She said Jones was leaving the residence in a black Dodge Charger and that he was possibly drinking, the affidavit says.
While en route to the residence, a deputy saw a dark Dodge leaving the neighborhood. The vehicle was traveling 45 mph in a 40 mph zone.
The deputy pulled the vehicle over and interviewed Jones, who had a strong odor of alcohol, the affidavit says.
Jones told the deputy he and his wife had gotten into an argument while eating sushi at Izumi Sushi around 8 p.m., the affidavit says. He said he drank a bottle of sake during dinner, according to the court documents.
Jones ended up walking three miles home from dinner. When he arrived home, they continued arguing, the affidavit says.
“Jones stated he then proceeded to drive to another residence he owns downtown to get away from his wife,” the affidavit says.
The deputy conducted sobriety tests on Jones. His eyes were described in the affidavit as being watery and glassy with constricted pupils. His demeanor was described as excited, talkative, carefree and cooperative, according to the court documents.
Jones had a blood alcohol level of 0.076 at 11:55 p.m. and a level of 0.079 at 11:59 p.m. The legal blood alcohol limit while driving in Texas is 0.08.
Is my math wrong here? but isn’t .079 less than .080. I mean we’re talking about a thousandth but it is still under the legal limit, not over. Am I the only one who sees this. Correct me if I’m wrong about this.
‘Jones had a blood alcohol level of 0.076 at 11:55 p.m. and a level of 0.079 at 11:59 p.m. The legal blood alcohol limit while driving in Texas is 0.08.’ I guess code enforcer discretion
You are correct. But anything for the revenue, right? And, like most Americans, this deputy simply cannot “do the math.”–from a former HS math teacher. (And I wonder if Jones will catch this snafu as well).
Yea I noticed that too. WTH?
YOU have to wonder how much the wife of ALEX JONES WAS PAID BY SOMEONE TO CALL THE POLICE GANG TERRORISTS ON HIM,obviously even though he wasn’t drunk by texas standards,they hauled him off to jail anyway,BUT since when has that stopped the devils in the police gangs,IF THEY only knew where their headed when they leave this world,THAT OATH they all took might mean something to them,THEY certainly won’t have to worry about standing in front of the LORD at their judgement,SATAN will be coming to pick them up…
It would be nice if Jones finally woke up to this sorta thing, but I’m not holding my breath–he is a paid shill after all.
I am no fan of AJ but to his wife: you are a biotch
The ‘ biotch ‘ must be the 2nd one, ’cause his first ( a Tribe member ) filled divorce and spoke against him in some interviews…Or maybe she’s back…who knows…
Maybe they were out celebrating purim?
I smell publicity and not alcohol.
🙂
The Saudi’s did it!
HAHAHAHA! Maybe his wife is secretly a Saudi.
Yep, the same Saudis that “own Hollywood”… Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!
However, drivers in the state can be charged with DWI if they’re considered impaired, even if they’re under the limit.
That’s from ny post. How can THAT be a F’g LAW?!
Only if the so-called “law” is a sick criminal joke in need of redress.
Maybe it’s time for him to answer his calling?? Could it be, he has become the useful idiot?
ITS FUNNY SO MANY DUMB SHITS IN AMERICA HATE ALEX JONES,that man has done more to wake up the sleeping masses then all the other watchmen on earth,I guess thats the reason they hate him,WELL I GOT GOOD NEWS FOR ALL OF THE MOCKERS OF ALEX JONES,none of you will ever see the day your in heaven,OUR DEAR LORD has a place ready for you,and you’ll regret being blind fools as you were …….
Wait till Henry gets hold of this comment. You’re gonna find out who the blind fool is.
It is incomprehensible how so many brain dead mush minded stupid freaks still fall for this fat f-k.
He is an obvious Zionist shill. He is a trumptard to the extreme. He has whored the misery suffered by the multitudes to make sure he has lived a cush life. In supporting traitors he is a traitor.
When we the people enforce the absolute law of this country, a drunken driving ticket will be the least of his worries.
F-k you, Arizona, and get the f-k off this site and get back over there to infowhores with the rest of the f-king morons.
Bye.
oh yeah, that’s right AJ is ALL about educating the masses to the Supreme Law of this land our Bill of Rights…… doh! how could I have been such a ‘blind fool’
I don’t hate Alex Jones. I DO HATE that he refuses to speak the TRUTH and covers his a$$ in ZioShillary! For instance: “The Arabs own Hollywood.” NONSENSE! EVERYONE KNOWS WHO OWNS HOLLYWOOD and Ben Stein, a member of that tribe, admitted it, then said, “What of it?” Or this: “9-11 was an inside job.” EVERY TRUTH SEEKING PERSON knows it was only partly an “inside job” and was also done by many other nefarious agents, such as the Mossad (“Dancing Israelis” and “Urban Moving Systems” being a Mossad front; other intel agencies also had their roles to play…why else would the BBC show the destruction of Building 7 at least a half-hour BEFORE it happened? Plus the Israeli Art Students…). Those are two of AJs most lying moments, but I am sure he has done that many other times.
Oh, and who died and made you God? Jesus said it, “Don’t judge, lest you be judged”!–from a true believer in Jesus Christ.
HAHAHAHA alex jones, the “prophet”?!
Try PROFIT and at the expense of prolonging our enslavement by being a “watchman” for the gate of those who are subjugating and murdering US but HE is a “good” guy?
You got some f’d up heroes, man, and I don’t think the God, Jesus and heroes I appreciate are the same as yours. They’d want me to know the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. Gatekeeping for sadistic murderous psychopaths is what jones-stein does and WE are the victims. How you can defend him is far beyond my understanding and comprehension. We forge our own chains, I guess.
Fck AJ
He’s got the money to pay for a ride so he doesn’t blindly kill someone’s family
Sorry but I’ve got a completely different view point on driving after or while drinking
We all know better
And so does he
When you almost lose your kid to one of these assholes
And you sit in the hospital looking at your kid all wired up to shit to get them through the the damage the wreck caused
And than for 3 years deal with lawyers , Dr’s medical bills and a totaled vehicle
It wakes you up to how fcken careless that act is
Sorry for all the pain and worry you have been through
Thank you Mary and DL
We got Blessed and she pulled through
closed head injuries are no joke and watching your child ( Teen) go through seizures , loss of driving privileges , lost job have to move back home , recover and start all over again at 19 , the assholes in the insurance industry and this total joke of a court system
it makes you see things differently
I still wish i could wrap my hands around a few throats
and , besides that the least important issue , but it still was a major financial hit for us , was My Tahoe was worth 10 grand
and i never even got close to ever being able to buy another one
so they added insult to her injuries
Sorry, EoS! If I could I would give you and yours hugs…Blessings!
The Purim comment was priceless.
