James Casey jailed after throwing cooking pot at girlfriend during argument

41-year-old James Casey was jailed on May 28th after throwing a cooking pot at his girlfriend’s face during an argument at their home on Autumn Drive. Police responded and spoke with Shelley Moore, who said she and Casey were in the garage arguing, and she became agitated, so she threw a chair to the ground and headed back inside. According to Moore, as she was closing the door, she saw Casey grab the red cooking pot, and she knew he was going to throw it at her, but she didn’t shut the door fast enough.

Police observed a large dent in the pot, and the handle was broken. Moore had a large knot above her right eye and a small cut above her left. Casey told police that Moore threw the chair at him and then the cooking pot. According to Casey, after she threw the pot, he grabbed it and threw it in her direction. Casey said he didn’t mean to hit Moore with the pot; it hit her after hitting the door. Police saw a scrape on his left that he said was from the chair. Due to the severity of Moore’s injuries, Casey was determined as the primary aggressor.

In honor of Jerry Springer, meet Christian Gregory.

23-year-old Christian Gregory was booked this week for getting into a fight with Kelodjah Holt after she confronted Christian about sleeping with her ex-boyfriend and brother, Kelodjah Holt. A male called in on the line whispering about people being in his apartment that shouldn’t be. Police responded to Green Circle in Goodlettsville and spoke with Christian and her sisters, Talissa Gregory, and Shamaree Ramsey. Christian had just been in a fight with Kelodjah, who also lived in the apartment complex. Kelodjah found out that Christian had been sleeping with her ex-boyfriend and her brother, so she went to Christian’s apartment to confront her, and the argument turned into a fight.

During the fight, Christian grabbed a kitchen knife in self-defense, but Shamaree knocked it out of her hands and separated the two. Kelodjah ran to get back to her apartment, and Christian got in Shamaree’s car to follow her. Talissa ran after Christian but lost sight of her as she drove off. Talissa believed that Christian was hiding and waiting for an opportunity to attack Kelodjah, but it was later discovered that she circled the complex and went back to her apartment to grab another knife.

Christian pulled up to Kelodjas’s apartment and exited the car screaming, “I’m going to kill you b$*ch.” Christian slashed Kelodjah’s front passenger’s tire and then scratched her car with a knife. She then lunged at her while swinging the knife in her direction. Kelodjah told police that she feared for her life, and her claims were corroborated by Talissa and Shamaree. Officers found a broken knife blade lying on the hood of Kelodjah’s car and a knife handle sitting in the center console of Shamaree’s car, confirming that Christian used the knife.

Robbie Cook charged with assault of two men who inherited family estate he felt was his

18-year-old Robbie Cook was jailed on April 29th after threatening to kill two men that were left most of the estate that he felt should have been left to him in his great aunt’s will. Jeffrey Pentecost and James Derrick Simpson were given permission to live on the property by the estate owner in her will and probate before she passed away. They looked after Cook, the estate owner’s great-nephew, until he recently turned 18. Cook came over that night and was aggravated that he was not left any of the property in his great aunt’s will. Mr. Simpson played an audio recording from his cell phone where officers could hear Cook repeatedly threatening him and Mr. Pentecost, stating, “You must want to die tonight,” “I’m going to kill you both, you pussy ass motherfuckers”, and “you won’t know what’s going to hit you.” While Cook was making those threats, he was waving a knife and lunging at them. When Mr. Simpson initially called the police, Cook had just left the property, went to his truck, and pulled out a baseball bat. He walked up to the RV that Mr. Simpson and Mr. Pentecost live in and smashed the front windshield. The estimated cost to replace the windshield was $3,000.

Brenda Ruiz Solorzano attacks husband with flower vases

46-year-old Brenda Ruiz Solorzano was jailed last week for trying to hit her husband with a vase after an argument at their home on Kinwood Drive. Police responded and spoke with Fermin Martinez, who said he and his wife were arguing about their child being disrespectful when Brenda threw a drink on the ground in a fit of rage. Martinez went outside and told the child to grab food from the store while he continued mowing the lawn. Brenda came outside, stood in front of the lawnmower, and started yelling at him. Martinez told his wife he would not argue with her outside and grabbed her arm to guide her inside. When they got to the porch, she picked up a flower vase to try and hit him. Once they got inside the house, they continued to argue, and Brenda grabbed another vase and threw it at Martinez, but he said it didn’t hit him.

He had two small fresh scratches on his face, but he claims he doesn’t know where they came from. Brenda denies anything physical took place and that there was only an argument. Brenda told police that the front screen door knocked over the vase, and she slammed her hand down on the table, causing the other vase to fall over. She claims her husband never grabbed her to bring her inside, but with the evidence of the destroyed vases and the injuries to Martinez, she was taken into custody and transported to booking.

19-year-old Alvionna Jones was jailed last week on an outstanding warrant from March 12th for stabbing her boyfriend Joshua Cloyd in the hip after an argument at the Super 8 by Wyndham Hermitage on Princeton Place.

According to Joshua, anytime an argument occurs, she always “goes for the knife.” He says it was a kitchen knife this time, and the blade was about three inches.
