Overview
- Jamir Clarke, 29, faces four counts of child abuse without great bodily harm after an altercation during Blanche Ely High School football practice.
- An arrest report says the dispute began over a negative social media post, after which Clarke allegedly insulted a player and punched him, prompting other students to rush him.
- Deputies reported the weight room was locked, later finding Clarke sitting on the floor with the lights off, and noted a cracked mirror in the room.
- He was granted $30,000 bond and released to house arrest with a GPS monitor, with conditions that include no contact with student victims and surrender of any firearms.
- BCPS reassigned Clarke and removed him from coaching after a separate bathroom video from Monarch High School surfaced, as prosecutors told a judge his size made him a risk despite his self-defense claim.
