VA Dem AG Candidate Jay Jones Completed Community Service for Reckless Driving Conviction at His Own PAC for Reckless Driving ConvictionVirginia Democrat attorney general candidate Jay Jones completed half of his community service hours for a reckless driving conviction at his own political action committee (PAC), according to a report.
The Richmond Times-Dispatch reported that “court records show” Jay Jones — who is running against Republican attorney general candidate and current Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares, “was pulled over by” a state trooper around 12:55 a.m. in January 2022. Jones had been driving 116 miles per hour on I-64.
Per the outlet, while “under Virginia law, a reckless driving conviction can result in up to one year in jail,” Jones’ case ended up being “changed to ‘deferred disposition,'” and he paid a $1,500 fine and completed 1,000 hours of community service. Out of those 1,000 hours of community service, Jones did 500 hours at his own PAC:
Under Virginia law, a reckless driving conviction can result in up to one year in jail. Jones’ attorney sought to defer the case four times before the General District Court system reports the case changed to “deferred disposition,” meaning there was an agreement to avoid potential jail time in exchange for doing community service.
Jones paid a $1,500 fine.
Documents from Jones’ attorney show that Jones completed 1,000 hours of community service in 2023 — 500 of which were for Jones’ own political action committee, called Meet Our Moment. The PAC is registered with the Virginia Board of Elections and is not a nonprofit charitable organization.
Jones issued a statement acknowledging that he “made the mistake of speeding” and was “regretful.”
