A Santa Rosa Junior College information technology employee faces a felony stalking charge after police arrested him outside of a SRJC vice president’s home March 19, police said.
Rohnert Park Police arrested Jordan Mead, 47, a SRJC employee of 24 years, just before 8 p.m. on Wednesday night in front of the home of Kate Jolley, SRJC vice president of finance and administrative service and interim vice president of human resources.
Mead faces one felony stalking charge and a misdemeanor count of harassing or annoying via electronic communication or phone calls. Mead also faces a charge of trespassing in a separate case from a previous arrest on Feb. 25.
Judge Laura Passaglia set Mead’s bail at $250,000, which he posted on March 21.
In text messages exchanged with The Oak Leaf News on Sunday, Mead pronounced his innocence but declined to comment on his exact intentions in going to Jolley’s residence, stating it would soon be addressed in court.
“I will tell you I had no malevolent intent,” Mead said. “I was on the public sidewalk the entire time I was there. I never stepped on her property.”
The Oak Leaf News obtained copies of three emails and more than 50 unanswered text messages Mead sent to Jolley in February. The messages vary in length and content but show an escalation of Mead’s frustration with Jolley.
