[Artemisia] Sigh. Another black eye for the SCA

[Jackman-Brink, Julia]

As posted in several other areas and other lists (including Facebook)...this person hasn't been a member since 1995. People keep bringing up his armor and which makes the general public think he is still part of our organization by association. I suspect he is participating in some splinter group which explains the equipment still being around. Push come to shove, he's not SCA.

Looking at the stills in the MSNBC clip, it is SCA-standard armor and weapons, so it does reflect on us, OTOH policy forever has been "what happens at private, family-only practice is NOT official, therefore not our problem".  Having said that, since he has committed a crime while in SCA gear, were I a resident of his Kingdom, I'd be sending his Crown a request to Banish.  Of course, the rules regarding Banishments require several steps and due process, so don't expect an R&D next week.

As for the "unpleasant fighters' practice", I highly doubt it, as the video indicated he's in custody.
