He was arrested two months ago in a La Crosse drug raid, and was released from jail a short time later.

Now, 19-year-old James Washington is back behind bars…for cocaine possession, and bail-jumping. Washington returned to the La Crosse jail yesterday, and is expected in court this afternoon. He and Aaron Thompson were busted in March on charges of selling crack to a police informant. The two are suspected of collaborating with Ernest Knox, who is now facing federal charges because of area drug activity.
