Jordan attacks DA letter as ridiculous and sarcastic
John Jordan called a district attorney letter ridiculous and sarcastic after the DA suggested Jordan’s reports of campaign sign damage could be political. Jordan filed complaints with several law enforcement agencies about widespread sign theft and damage to his yard signs and billboards. He said many residents reported signs stolen or mutilated, often in daylight. Parkerson urged Jordan to provide evidence to prosecutions and warned against politicizing the issue. Jordan denied accusing Parkerson or contacting him about cases, accusing the DA of exploiting the matter for publicity. He thanked Parkerson for his concern and urged practical action to prevent future incidents.
