Reader shares the current status of John Worldpeace in jail.
Yes, John is still being held at the Harris County jail. He is supposed to have a bond hearing sometime soon relating to his assault charges. But the D.A. is seeking 20 years for the alleged assault on the U.S. Marshal. In addition, The Writ of Attachment was served on him after he was arrested. He will still have to serve time in connection with his disbarment and contempt of court. This could be as much as 6 months....comment

Judgment Day: on May 9, federal court judge has signed the final judgment document on John Worldpeace. He was found guilty of one count of "Resist, oppose, impede, intimidate and interfere with a federal officer engaging in official duties". In other words, resisting arrest. Sentence is 12 months custody in a federal prison, to be served concurrently with his state conviction on contempt of court (for continuing to practice as an attorney after disbarment, I believe).
So, he's behind bars for a bit.
