Dorchester man charged with being extra ridiculous during yesterday's Revere Beach brawl
By adamg on Mon, 05/11/2015 - 3:43pm
Cornelius Jackson, 23, was ordered to stay out of Revere Beach at his arraignment today on charges of trespassing, disorderly conduct, resisting arrest and furnishing a false name in connection with yesterday's melee, the Suffolk County District Attorney's office reports.
According to the DA's office, Jackson tried to prevent police from arresting a minor during the fray; that, of course, led to him being arrested as well.
When Jackson was arrested, he allegedly resisted and attempted to kick out the windows of a State Police cruiser; when he was booked, he allegedly provided a false name and date of birth.
A Chelsea District Court judge declined a request from prosecutors to set bail at $500, but did agree with their request that he be ordered to stay away from Revere Beach until his case is disposed of.
The DA's office adds all the other defendants were 17 or under.
Several juvenile defendants are expected to be arraigned for their roles in the clash at the beach in the days to come.

Where's the City Councilor for District 1?... East Boston
Would it be expected that the City Councilor for District 1 East Boston, Charlestown, North End/Waterfront, Deer Island turn up on the scene?
Why are you asking this?
Surely you, of all people, know where the line is between the city of Revere and the city of Boston.
The deeper question is...
...is there anything that lists the boundaries of the City of Revere? Of Boston?
2015 answer
Type "Revere, MA" into Google Maps, and look for the red line?
Okay, but
What about the boundaries of the wards and voting precincts in Revere. What are they? When's the last time they were redrawn?
I gots to know. After my desire to know who is running for Cambridge City Council and why candidates are going around shooting potential voters, this is my most pressing concern.
There are two direct entry points into Revere from Boston
One is through Bennington Street where the line is at the site of the old Suffolk Down drive in. The second is on Lee Burbank Highway, Rte 1A.
How many "Beach Streets"?
What precincts and voting locations for all the Beach Streets? Who represents them?
East Boston's boundaries in
East Boston's boundaries in Orient heights end a little past Suffolk Downs station on Bennington Street. Therefore City of Boston councilors have no business being in Revere, MA.
I think the East Boston/Revere/North End/Cambridge State Senator is responsible on what goes on at Revere beach in regards of crime, safety and Government funding.
Why?
Why would a Boston city councilor be expected to shown up at crime scenes in Revere?
He seems so charming!
He seems so charming!
Didn't see that coming
I had so many predictions about what the first comment to this post would be. That was not one of them. I can't say I'm disappointed, though.
He should have stayed in
He should have stayed in Dorchester earlier for the Mother's Day Peace Walk. Maybe he would have learned something.
Where's the Braintree knuckleheads?
I hope they're not slipping, this seems like a great missed opportunity for them.
Yukon
I don't know about you but I"m in love with the name Cornelius Jackson. I wonder if he's related to Yukon Cornelius?
False name
LMAO, I would also furnish a false name if my real one was Cornelius.
