Send us a text

In August 2014, Tim Ray Jones, Jr. picked his five children up from elementary school and daycare for the last time. That night, something awful happened in the Jones household as Jones cruelly ended the lives of Merah, 8, Elias, 7, Nahtahn, 6, Gabriel, 2, and Elaine, 1. After the murders, Jones evaded police for 9 days, and eventually gave terrible reasons to explain his crimes.
