Up for re-election, a report by the far-right politics website Current Revolt claims Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins wore blackface when he and two others criminally trespassed on several properties in 1983.
A report by the far-right politics websiteclaims Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins was arrested in September 1983 for criminal trespass after he and others allegedly went into several apartments in blackface trying to frighten students at Baylor University.
The women were awakened when the three men entered through one of their bedroom windows, according to the police report. Once inside, the three men “ransacked” one of the rooms and left through the front door “laughing, thinking it was a big joke,” the police report says. Jenkins and the others were eventually arrested for criminal trespass of a habitation with bonds set at $1,500.
“Judge Jenkins apologized then, when he was 19, and continues to be sorry for the poor judgment he exhibited at the time," Gregory said in an emailed statement."He has never darkened his face in an attempt to appear as a member of another race. As was reported in 1983, they were three students wearing camouflage."
