Former Jacksonville man who claims to be 225-yr-old vampire held in ...

You'd never guess that the charmer pictured here claims to be a 225-year-old vampire named Draven. Trivia moment: Erik Draven happens to be the name of Brandon Lee's character in the extremely ill-fated, box office smash, the 1992 movie version of The Crow, where Lee portrayed a black-clad, undead, rock musician intent upon avenging the deaths of himself and his girlfriend. In real life during filming, he died at 28-years-old. It is said the cause was a fluke accident with a prop pistol.

Police, eager to burst Fang's bubble, say he is Jeffrey Michael Mitchell, and that his fangs are really caps. The next thing they'll say is that he's not 225-years-old. Could he have been on Social Security since it's inception? In fact, they seem to feel he is a lot closer to 30-yrs-old. U.S. Marshals say that Jeffrey really and truly believed he was a vampire, and always wore long black clothing. (as do many of us under the delusion it is slimming).

U.S. Marshals weren't involved until the mother of a 4-year-old girl reported that he'd taken her child from a babysitter's home, then from Jacksonville to Virginia Beach, where upon serving the warrant, it was discovered two other young girls were living with him.Don't even think about bailing him out, the judge isn't. He's being charged with - but not limited to -sex with inanimate objects (no spousal jokes), object penetration, oral sodomy and aggravated sexual battery.

Often predators walk without notice, appearing to be the most normal friends and relatives. For some reason Jeffrey didn't ring any alarm bells with the caretakers of these children. Apparently, Jeffrey...er Draven knew the babysitter, and as free to wander among the children in her care. I realize I'm a worrier, but I'd hope parents would at the very least check the babysitter and daycare centersand notice if there are any 225-year-old child-molesting vampires lounging around...but that's just me. Please call Jacksonville police at (904) 630-0500 with any other information on Mitchell. Former Jacksonville man who claims to be 225-yr-old vampire held in Virginia on sex charges
