Biography
Jim Miles, described as a Wisconsin resident, was arrested after praying in the Honeywell lobby in Minneapolis on Friday, January 10, 1986. The report explicitly says he was taken to jail for the weekend, met a judge the following Monday, and was physically released when both trespass charges were dismissed. January 13 is the calendar date of that following Monday, so this is three elapsed days of actual January 10–13 custody. It is not detention continuously since his earlier May 1985 Honeywell arrest or a future trial date. The separately recorded Mike Miles/Michael Miles is not treated as an alias or merged with him.
The Winter 1996 Pathfinder identifies Linda and Jim Miles as one household at Anathoth Community Farm, alongside the separate household of Barb Kass and Mike Miles. This contemporary community account supports keeping Jim Miles and Mike Miles distinct; it does not establish an alias or another custody episode.
