21-year-old Jersey Clevenger was seen publicly intoxicated at the Nashville International Airport on July 5th. Officers were dispatched to a gate at the airport for a female who was intoxicated and appeared to be taking shallow breaths while sleeping. When officers arrived on the scene, they were able to wake Clevenger up. Clevenger then immediately asked to use the restroom. Clevenger was escorted to the bathroom, and officers observed that she could not walk or stand on her own. Officers then asked her to take a seat for her own safety, and they attempted to question her. As officers questioned Clevenger, she was unable to tell officers where she was. Clevenger told officers she was in Sarasota and admitted that she had been drinking at the airport. Officers then asked her again where she was, to which she again replied, Sarasota. Due to Clevenger’s inability to correctly answer where she was, her slightly bloodshot eyes, and her difficulty walking, officers placed her under arrest for public intoxication. Officers also discovered Clevenger had a full extradition warrant out of Missouri, so she was taken into custody for public intoxication and fugitive from justice.
Jersey Christine Clevenger was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on July 5th, charged with public intoxication and fugitive from justice. A judicial commissioner set her bond at $125,250.
