UPDATE: I reached out to a local who gave me the following brief update.”Ross has talked with Captain Lee. His court date is 1/24/2019. He is in the process of retaining counsel and is looking forward to resolving this unfortunate incident and putting it all behind him. Captain Lee doing what he can to help him resolve the situation as quickly as possible. Ross will not be making any further statements at this time.”
It sounds to me like he is in good hands with Captain Lee.
Below Deck’s Ross Inia was picked up by the West Palm Beach police at 3:20 a.m. and is facing some very serious charges. It seems that Ross was out partying hard with Joao from Below Deck Med and they began drunken horsing around at the bar. The police were called to break them up. Both of them were handcuffed while the officers could sort things out. During that time it appears that Joao was compliant with the officers but Ross was resisting arrest and fighting back with the officers.
It’s Luann Delesseps all over again.
Ross was booked on two felonies and one misdemeanor.
Current Bond: $10000.00
For those playing along at home, his bond is $15,5000. He could be in there for a while. In order to call someone from the jail you have to know their phone number by heart. Luann de Lesseps taught us that.
If you had asked me which of the two were more likely to get arrested while out drinking I would have for sure said Joao. I’m surprised by this arrest.
I don’t know if Ross is living in West Palm Beach or just there on a visit. I am concerned he doesn’t know anyone’s phone number by heart and could be in there for a very long time.
Perhaps Captain Lee can check on him.According to a commenter here, Joao said on a Below Deck Facebook group that Joao has bonded out.
Fudge. This sucks. I blame Joao! (Not really, but I can’t think anything good can happen hanging out with Joao.
Agreed. Blame Joao — he’s a troublemaker wherever he goes. No one should hang out with Joao OR Jezabob!
Damn, that West Palm Beach is the devil at the holidays. Wonder if he’s got Tom’s number on his yacht because surely he’s prepping for his annual New Years party by now… 😉
Lol, everyone has Tom’s number.
Tom’s (rental) yacht does not leave the harbor. It’s merely a floating whore house.
Damn…….. he looks like hes on more than alcohol in the picture.
South Florida still loves cocaine.
According to Joao’s entry on the Beloe Deck discussion group on Facebook he has been bailed out – by Joao I presume!!
Joao? who would have thought was he on this season or last? I remember him being a man whore who thought he was above everyone got on my last nerve.
Hey it surprised me too – he was on the last season of BD Med. but they were hanging out in Florida & he posted on the page to explain what happened- which was as TT said – & that all was okay now.
Down here in The Antipodes the police are a tad more chill than yours – lots of blogs warning travellers from Australia & NZ to be very circumspect if encountering police in the US.
I think I get him and Ashton confused. They are both douchy but I like Ashton better.
Never mind. Ashton is the Male stripper on this season. Huh. Dont hang out with joao. Hes a pos.
Stupid F. These knuckleheads need to grow up! I wonder if they were given free drinks around town because of their “celebrity”?
Damn! I really like them both. Ross seemed much more mature, so that’s surprising.
I agree w you, Tamara.
Joah …mmm .., he’s a hottie.
Jezabob made him act unruly.
I came here specifically to blame Jezabob and you beat me to it. Lol
Cheers to you! 🙂
Right back at ya! ???
I’m disappointed to hear Ross was arrested. Joao could be put in jail and throw away the key. He can do his whoring there
Felons by Bravo another T.T catchphrase.
I’m actually worried the charges could have an affect on his status in the US. If he’s on a visa it could be revoked. I know his son is in Florida and I’d hate to see that happen, he’s a pretty cool guy.
His son and baby mama are in Florida? I did not know that. That means he probably did know a local phone number by heart.
Lol, she may not have wanted to answer.
It is a full moon ??♀️
He did say they were in FLA. Damn you West Palm Beach!! I’m shocked that it’s Ross. I would’ve bet the zen chef over Ross!!
I have been able to verify that he has been bailed out and has a hearing tomorrow morning. ON A SUNDAY BEFORE CHRISTMAS!
I will keep you updated if I receive anymore information.
Ross had a lot of ppl fooled. I never cared 4 him bc he had no backbone when it came to Rhylee. She worked hard but had no respect 4 authority. On a vessel,”u have to earn it” doesn’t wash.
It’s abt rank ppl. As a private I speak to a Superior Officer like she did her ass wud have been gone along time ago.
Capt Lee mentioned it. Had he known it thinks wud have been a lot different.Any way Ross hangs around & acts like a fool is not surprising.He tried 2jump on Rhylee & that’s why he let her get away with it. Now this garbage Joao! I lived in Fla maybe Kate can help!! Lol

Ok, this isn’t “NancyInTheSmokies”. But this “Nancy” has recently had a “Smokie”
I know from whence I came. I’m having a (COMPLETELY LEGAL) smokie now. ?
Chuckled out loud reading your comment Jim, thanks! (Smoke one for me please.
I’m not happy this happened to him. Plz don’t get me wrong. What I’m saying is hold Ur alcohol, especially when in a foreign country. The last thing u want 2 do is get arrested. NEVER hit a police officer we all knw this. Alcohol is not the problem being an Ass hole is! I feel for his kid & the mother of his child but he did it to himself, if the reports R accurate! I wish him well! Peace!❤
The whole Palm Beach arrest thing cracks me up:
1-Tinsley
2-Luann
3-Ross
Who is next year???
I’m sure Tinsley will remind us this was “West Palm Beach”
Andy?
We can only hope.
Ashton x Joao = ∞
POST UPDATED!
Capt. Lee just keeps getting better in my eyes.
Right? He seems like the quintessential father figure.
Capt. Lee, WHat a guy ! Love him, Love Below Deck, Love you Tamara
I sure hope it wasn’t a female officer Ross assaulted or we will have to call this Below Deck PTSD!
Oh, man! I just found this post and I’m sad for Ross.
I hope he learns from this and is able to clear it up quickly.
Fingers crossed for ya, Ross.
