Arrest report for Halverson’s former bailiff is released

The bailiff for former District Court Judge Elizabeth Halverson is being accused of raping a 14-year-old girl while the girl's parents were outside her room, according to his arrest report from North Las Vegas police.

The arrest report states that 40-year-old Johnnie Jordan arrived at the victim's home with his mother and his ex-fiancee on Saturday evening. While the two women talked to the victim's mother outside the home, Jordan went inside for about 10 minutes.

During that time, the victim told police that Jordan went into her room and raped her. Two other people who were in the home at the time did not hear the incident take place.

When the responding officer saw the victim, the officer noted in the report that her underwear appeared bloody. She was taken to Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center. The report does not mention what Jordan told police upon his arrest early Sunday morning.

Jordan was the former bailiff whose tearful testimony helped oust Halverson in 2008. He accused her of treating him like a personal slave in the courtroom. He said she made him pick lint off of her judicial robes with tape and get on his knees and slip on her shoes.

In 2008, Jordan said that he had a heart attack and no longer worked for the county as a bailiff.

He is being held at the North Las Vegas Detention Center on $80,000 bail on two counts of sexual assault with a person under 16 and two counts of lewdness with a minor. His next court appearance is scheduled for Tuesday.
