FAYETTEVILLE -- A woman with a history of alcohol-related arrests didn't show up for court Tuesday.
Jo Lynn Jackson was scheduled to appear before Washington County Circuit Judge Joanna Taylor for a status hearing on her case. Taylor ordered Jackson's bond revoked, issued an arrest warrant and set a contempt hearing for Sept. 30.
Jackson, 54, is charged with filing a false police report in which she claimed a Washington County jailer sexually assaulted her in a shower.
Investigators have said videos from the cell block showed the jailer never went into the shower with Jackson. The jailer denied any wrongdoing.
Jackson was arrested last summer for reckless burning, a felony and public intoxication. Police said she set a fire in her driveway and the fire spread and threatened nearby apartments.
She was arrested three times for driving while intoxicated in 2014, twice while she was free on bond.
Jackson drove into and killed a city worker, Jackie Luper of West Fork, in September 2011. She pleaded guilty to misdemeanor negligent homicide in Luper's death.
