One homeless Lexington man faces his day in court, again, Thursday after his 1,333rd arrest.
Henry Earl, 58, better known to some as ‘Downtown James Brown,’ was charged with alcohol intoxication in a public place.
Earl will stand in front of the Hon. Megan Lake Thorton, Fayette District Court judge, at 10 a.m. for a pre-trial conference, along with the a Fayette County Attorney and his public defender.
Since 1992, Earl has been arrested 1,000 for alcohol intoxication time after time, as well as criminal trespassing a handful of times. But since the ’70s, his rap sheet, according the Smoking Gun, records 1,333 arrests, starting with carrying a concealed weapon.
In 2008 alone he has been arrested 35 times. And his latest offense on Sept. 22 leads him to court again.
