Thoughts? Last year, the North Carolina Department of Public Safety released a list of their "12 Most Wanted" escapees. Jerry Jones is one of them. The above description is somewhat brief but at least there's some detail other than other cold cases that just say murder. I assume this might of been a robbery since the victim was a store owner but I don't want to speculate beyond that. There's 7 zillion Jerry Jones in the NC inmate database search, so if I ever find this particular one and see any more details I'll update this thread.
Admin Note #1: According to online articles, anyone with information on Jones' whereabouts is asked to contact the Department of Public Safety at (919) 838-3572.
