East Palestine trailer park owner clears the air on Jed York arrest

One of the most stunning aspects of the news regarding 49ers owner Jed York’s recent prostitution-related arrest was that it happened at a trailer park.

Management of the trailer park in question wants it to be known that the location of the arrest was a coincidence.

The arrest happened at the Wheat Hill Mobile Home Community. And the community has posted the following message on its Facebook page, via Zain Khan of the New York Post.

“I just got off the phone with the Chief of Police for East Palestine, Chief Weingart,” the message explains. “According to the chief, Jed York was arrested in the park because that’s where he happened to pull over.

“They were not using addresses in the park as part of their sting operation.

“This news of this arrest in our quiet community is just as shocking to us, as to the rest of you. While we support law enforcement in their efforts[, w]e really have no other knowledge of the situation.”

From the community’s website: “Wheat Hill Mobile Home Community is a clean, quiet, and affordable place to call home. This is not the type of place that Jerry Springer would ever find people to be on his show.”

If Jerry Springer still had his show, he’d definitely be trying to book the guy who pulled over there on Sunday, just before he was arrested.
