More Controversy For Invisible Children After New Video Surfaces

Well, it looks like things are going from bad to worse for Invisible Children and the KONY 2012 campaign. Just a week after Jason Russell was arrested and put on a psychiatric hold after running naked through the streets of San Diego, another IC big-shot is in the news for the wrong reasons.

Earlier today, a video of Jedidiah Jenkins, Invisible Children's Director of Idealogy, surfaced of a drunk Jenkins, chugging vodka and making jokes about keeping money donated to the foundation. The video is said to be from 2010, right after Invisible Children won a $1 million grand prize in the Chase Community Giving Facebook competition.

In the video, Jenkins is seen saying "I don't know if you heard this or not ... but we won a ... we won a million dollars so ... pretty rad...A hundred thousand for Haiti and $900,000 in extra for me." (The contest was held one week after the earthquake in Haiti and Invisible Children had promised to give $100k to Haitian relief efforts if they won the prize)

 

A source close to Invisible Children says the video was made as a joke and it was water, not vodka in the bottle. No official response from the organization has been made.
