The slogan of Jones County, Mississippi is, "Now, this is Living!" Today, our friends at Motorhomediaries.com were arrested while passing through this quaint little dry county.
It went down this morning in Jones County, MS. Jason Talley posted this to MHD’s Twitter:
“We are in Jones County MS and @adammueller has been arrested for filming cops after they pulled us over.” http://img15.imageshack.us/my.php?image=q72.jpg&via=tfrog
Later, other posts to Jason’s facebook page revealed they were all arrested. After asking for details and hearing nothing, I called the Jones County Jail at 601-649-7502 and confirmed they have all been imprisoned.Adam Mueller - Disorderly Conduct and Disobeying an Officer

According to the Jones County website the quality of life that Jason, Pete and Adam might have been enjoying if they weren't in the county lockup right now is quite lovely:
Some places have just one or two things going for them – it’s up to you to decide if the benefits of living there outweigh the sacrifices you’ll have to make.And, then there are those rare places where everything is in sync, and the biggest debate is over which benefit you love the most.
Jones County is that kind of place: not just a place with an affordable cost of living, but also with easy access to goods and services; not just a place to do business, but also to serve others through social and community outreaches; and not just a place to have a good time, but also to feed the mind and soul through the arts and education.
Put it all together and you have a place where you’re free to pursue your happiness among people committed to your well-being and even better living in the future.
We encourage our readers to call the county's sheriff's office and the board of supervisors to find out more about quality of life -- especially that delicious thing called "liberty" -- when one comes to stay in Jones County, Mississippi:
