..."Whilst waiting to appear for the first time in court, Thelonious jumps the same police officer again, and, at the end of this second fight, he is handcuffed. Charged with possession of drugs. Rouse and the baroness had to pay a 5000 $. Monk's bail was at 5300 $ as he was also charged with public disorder and assault. The day before the trial, Thelonius's attorney told that Thelonius felt ill as he was boarding the train to go to the court, and had to be taken to hospital"...
