‘Scary Movie’ Jay Jones: GOP turns Democratic AG hopeful’s scandals into Halloween costumes
Fox News
Jay Jones faces Republican attacks over violent text messages about GOP officials and ongoing criminal investigation into reckless driving conviction.
Charles Creitz is a reporter for Fox News Digital.
Adam Piper, executive director of the Republican Attorneys General Association (RAGA), which created the costumes, told Fox News Digital that dressing up as Jones "is scarier than Michael Myers or Freddy Krueger." He joined Fox News in 2013 as a writer and production assistant.
"Jay Jones is the ‘Scary Movie’ of a scandal-ridden politician—a mockery of public service with his ghosted ethics, killer text messages, criminal investigations, and a plot twist where the real monster is hiding in plain sight," Piper said, as the costumes were also displayed on a roving digital-billboard box truck that crisscrossed the densely-populated Richmond-Henrico area on Friday.
