I am happy that his poor cat is safe and now has a chance for a better life without stress and overfeeding.

Looking at the vital stats on his booking page I would say that at 6' and nearly 300 lbs people would be afraid of John when he went into one of his explosive temper tantrums, snatching things from store counters, knocking over furniture in dining establishments, screaming abuse when he didn't get his way.  That is a bully AND HE KNOWS IT.  He is also a coward, hiding behind his keyboard trying to ruin peoples' businesses and reputations, plus targeting minimum wage kids and women when he acted out in public.

I was directed to this thread by a friend in Norfolk.  As a former crew member of the USS Ohio and having had the distinct displeasure of serving alongside this malingerer when he was active duty, plus having witnessed some of his shenanigans first hand / acting to bar him from attending ship reunions because nobody wanted him acting a fool, especially with his filthy mouth around children and spouses, it is no surprise to me to hear that he wound up in the pokey after how many years worth of unchecked behavior.

I bet his apartment was tossed and his Democrat Mobile towed.

With any luck he can get his sorry ass locked up

­Sounds like your wish was granted :lol:

We all may disagree on certain things of life, but there is a common denominator here:  John Rovenolt is a bully and everyone here was a victim.  I don't wish any luck against anyone but he had it coming.  Let's just hope John stays in prison for the rest of his life.

One of the things he was doing before his pissy fit on NextDoor was messaging random men, asking them if they were hetero, and blasting them if they replied in the affirmative.  It took a few days but the Toler Place mod finally blocked him.  Not that it really matters any more.  John is going to be absent from social media for the immediate future, if not for good if that is part of his sentence.

Not only ban John from social media for life, but lock his ass up and burn the key.  Can someone contact the VA to do a full investigation into his scam?  Hit John where it hurts:  his wallet.

I still want to know what was discovered after June 25.  Meh.  At the very least his cat is safe, so I would call that a win.

The kitty is claiming raype.

To the person whose mom helped retrieve the cat --- any more intel on the situation?

I think they dipped or aren't allowed to say anything else.

I think legal matters prohibit them from talking.  Honestly, that wouldn't surprise me with John.

this thread is interesting to me.   I've never encountered (thankfully!) such a low-life scumbag.  Interesting to see his antics at a distance

I'm willing to bet that they found some VERY interesting things on his phone during the investigation.

­Consider yourself fortunate.  Most of the people posting to this thread are locals who have had some very negative encounters with John.  Several years ago I worked at Java Surf and Johnsaid I was "a danger to the public" and called me a pube-faced asshole on the way out under threat of police involvement for some really piss poor conduct on his part.  His giving businesses one star reviews while accusing them of God knows what crimes against his person lost him a lot of friends.  He was friends with some of the business partners involved with MJ's Tavern and turned on them; he literally threatened physical harm to several LGBT Life Center volunteers after being caught stealing from the organization, and I threw him out of Java Surf after he used some really abusive language towards one of my female employees.  John spent more time getting kicked out of places for his filthy mouth and physically threatening body language than he actually sat down to eat or handle business.  He was finally arrested?  Good.  The real menace was that fat prick and not the employees or business owners he abused.

He wa

I remember seeing the Java Surf review on Yelp before it was taken down.  But yeah, the above person is 100% correct about John.  Everyone, including myself, ended up becoming enemies with him when he didn't get his way.  I am very surprised it took this long for law enforcement to get involved with an arrest, but it was coming sooner rather than later.  It's good news that John's cat is now free from his place.  Ler's hope she's placed with a family that can lead herself to long-term health.

It doesn't have to be a threat or harassment of a government figure.  It could come under the heading of lewd and involve sexting / unwanted contact of a sexual nature.  It could be done through direct phone contact or through messaging on social media.

When it comes to John I'm all ears

­I think somebody on Facebook dropped a dime on him after he posted about redneck protestors bringing firearms to the Pride events in Norfolk.

Yep.

There are people in the LGBTQ community that follow John on social media as a means of situational awareness and security based on prior incidents involving him.  that whole "afraid to attend pride events because of redneck protestors bringing guns" raised a LOT of red flags.

Johns father drove to Norfolk & got his cat that was taken to the aspca. The cat is safe.

­Who took the cat to the ASPCA?  The landlord?

Assume a neighbor called the ASPCA. Cat had been picked up 1 hour before his dad got there. His dad got the cat from the ASPCA & will care for her as long as needed.

Everyone should monitor the Norfolk City Jail Inmate locator to track what’s happening. Not sure if locals can testify or give input in hearings. His public defender apparently got a bond hearing for tomorrow Friday 7/15 @ 1030am. He previously was denied bond & a hearing date set for August 15th. Maybe light will be shed tomorrow on actual charges.

They will look at his past history with the law, police calls for service from businesses where he acted out, and yes!  his history on social media and whatever evidence discovered on his phone/computer.

Check the General District Court website for Norfolk.  They post up the dockets the afternoon prior to the day's court sessions.
