A collection of original bail bond documents related to Jim Morrison's arrest in Miami, FL on March 1, 1969, including:
- A statement of information, partially filled out with Morrison's information by attorney Max Fink, listing Morrison's address as 9777 Wilshire Blvd, the offense being "Traffic," dated 4-3-69, and signed by Morrison on the bottom in blue ink, with additional documents stapled onto the statement including three receipts and statements of charges and a typed letter to Fink from Max Spielberg of the Bonding Agency thanking him for referring Morrison to the agency and stating: "Bond in the amount of $5000.00 was executed for the defendant's appearance before the Honorable United States Commissioner on the 14th day of April, 1969, at the hour of 10 o'clock, a.m.; he being charged with the Violation of Title 18 USC 1073; his case number being 9=80."
- An additional statement of information, partially filled out with Morrison's information by attorney Max Fink, listing Morrison's address as 9777 Wilshire Blvd, dated 4-12-69, and signed by Morrison at the bottom in blue ink.
- A single statement card, filled out following Morrison's death, featuring personal information matching the other statements, with "Dead 7-7-71" handwritten in the "Charge" field.
On March 1, 1969, Morrison was charged following a chaotic performance at the Dinner Key Auditorium in Miami, FL. While local law enforcement issued warrants days after the show, Morrison officially surrendered to the FBI in Los Angeles on April 4, 1969. Morrison faced six warrants, including a felony for lewd and lascivious behavior and misdemeanors for indecent exposure, public profanity, and public drunkenness.
In September 1970, a jury found Morrison guilty of indecent exposure and open profanity. He was sentenced to six months in jail and a $500 fine. Morrison was released on bond while his legal team appealed the conviction. He moved to Paris in 1971 and died there before the appeal could be settled.
On December 9, 2010, the Florida Clemency Board, led by Governor Charlie Crist, granted Morrison a full posthumous pardon. Crist cited the lack of conclusive evidence and the "blot on his record" for an incident that may not have even occurred.
