Not-a-Prostitute Guy Sues Jail Again, Claims He Was Beaten & Scarred
Jesus Moses Simms now has two lawsuits going against the jail, and another one against his brother and sister.

An alleged armed robber suing the Will County jail for failing to punish an inmate he says threw urine on him—and suing his siblings for supposedly telling people he’s a male prostitute—has sued the jail again.
This time, Jesus Moses Simms is claiming jail guards beat and “put scars on him,” and he wants to be compensated for it, according to the lawsuit.
Simms’ suit also says he was falsely accused of damaging a mattress and jamming a lock.

Simms, 22, who was locked up last year on a robbery charge, found himself in even more trouble last week when he caught three new battery cases in connection with alleged attacks on other inmates.
Simms allegedly bit the nose of 18-year-old Dijon Kelley, struck Marvell Beals, 21, in the head, and hit Kenneth Love, 26, with a mop.

Simms complained about Love throwing urine on him when he sued the Will County jail last month. It was not clear whether the alleged urine-throwing preceded or followed the mop attack described in the criminal complaint.
In the lawsuit against his brother and sister, Derek and Samantha Walker, Simms claimed his siblings “arrived at (Simms’) church and explained to the Saints (Elders) of his church that he was arrested for prostitution.”
The Walkers “purposely and maliciously defamed (Simms) for the purpose of destroying his reputation in the church and community,” the suit said.
