We're told cops responded ... but Jermaine gave them a fake name --&lt;strong&gt; Joel Jones&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jermaine was charged with public nuisance and obstruction of justice. He was also arrested for having outstanding warrants.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next incident went down November 27, 2011 ... when Jermaine was the passenger in a car that was pulled over in Gloucester Township, NJ. Jermaine was questioned by cops and ONCE AGAIN gave them a fake name -- &lt;strong&gt;Kareem Watkins&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jermaine was charged for hindering apprehension and giving false information to avoid self-discovery. He was also arrested for having outstanding warrants ... again. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We've learned ... Jermaine had a total of 4 outstanding warrants ... 3 for driving on a suspended license and 1 for disorderly conduct with an open container. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There's more ... \"Idol\" sources tell us Jermaine was \"very aggressive\" behind the scenes ... once terrorizing a member of the staff by screaming at her because he didn't like his wardrobe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;\"Idol\" sources also tell us ... Jermaine had been questioned about his past by the \"A.I.\" risk management team before he was selected into the top 24 ... and he SWORE, among other things, that he hadn't been in a fight since high school. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pants on fire ... and now his lies have cost him the best opportunity of his life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!-- relatedlinks --&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
