Jerome said, “I'm the father of 3 daughters and the grandfather of 5 grandsons. I'm horrified by what climate change is already doing to Earth. I'm even more horrified that we still envision and construct projects like MVP which will worsen the warming and deepen the chaos.”

   After the 3 hour long extraction, Jerome was arrested and has since been released. Jerome's bail was set at $35,000. This is a very expensive bail condition, where typical bails have been in the $2000 range. Especially considering the misdemeanor charge.
