“Revok”
$320,000 Bail for Graffiti? Is that a misprint? ..Nope, it’s true.. just double checked. They grabbed up REVOK at LAX boarding a flight to Ireland on Sunday. A real FBI style (and QUITE costly) takedown.
from the LA Times:
“Revok, one of Los Angeles’ best known graffiti writers, was arrested as he prepared to board a plane to Ireland at Los Angeles International Airport, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department reported.
Jason Williams, a.k.a. Revok, was taken into custody Thursday for an outstanding arrest warrant for failing to pay restitution, according to sheriff’s Capt. Mike Parker.
Authorities claim Revok is a member of the graffiti crew Mad Society Kings, or MSK. Officials from the sheriff’s department were notified that there was an outstanding warrant against Revok for failure to repay victims of previous vandalism incidents.
That led to his arrest, officials said.
Revok is being held in the Los Angeles County Jail in lieu of $320,000 bail.

Here’s some other bails set IN the past 2 months, and also IN Los Angeles County (taken from Logan Hicks)…
San Gabriel Valley man arrested for allegedly molesting teenage boy he met online. Bail… $25,000
OC hospital worker is charged with raping sedated patient. Bail… $100,000
Man pleads not guilty to offering ‘dead or alive’ bounty on daughter’s boyfriend. Bail… $250,000
(more here)
and now……
“Artist charged with not repaying (in full) restitution for victims of graffiti.”… Bail… $320,000.
DAMN! Almost 1/3 of a MILLION $s bail for failure to repay “victims” of graffiti? “Victims”? Aren’t the “victims” of this graffiti the walls that had their COLOR CHANGED? Along with being an obvious counter strike against the rising graffiti art world and MOCA’s “Art in the Streets” exhibit, I’m sure Revok’s blog posts on the police don’t help. (MUST READS, if you can stomach them).
Revok’s very honorable dedication to AYER (R.I.P.) in the MOCA show
FREE REVOK.
*** UPDATE: Revok Gets Sentenced 180 Days (from the LA Times)…
