Jimmy Tucker, more commonly know as White Owl on campus, is being held in jail for failing to appear in court for a charges of a violation of a protection order.
A judge set a January trial date for Jimmy “White Owl” Tucker at a hearing in Douglas County District Court this morning regarding accusations that he violated a protection order.
Tucker, a 64-year-old Lawrence man, was arrested Nov. 5 for failing to appear in court, according to Douglas County District Court records.
In the case, Tucker is accused of violating a protection order Sept. 8. He failed to appear for his court date Oct. 30, and a warrant was issued for his arrest.
Tucker is currently being held in the Douglas County Jail on a bond of $5,000. His jury trial is set to begin Jan. 27 at 9 a.m.
Tucker is also accused of a second violation of a protective order and will have a hearing on that charge Nov. 19.
Tucker was cited for an unrelated theft Aug. 28 after police say he admitted to stealing three books from Anschutz Library. According to records from the KU Public Safety Office, the stolen books were valued at $227 and police say the crime occurred between February and August of this year.
Tucker is scheduled to appear before Lawrence Municipal Court on Dec. 31 in connection with this charge.
