History
Believed to have killed a psychiatrist, 2 paralegals, a counsellor and a Fountain Hills, Az couple. It was thought most of the victims were related to a prolonged divorce and custody battle that Jones said kept him from his son for over 10 years. Some of them worked in offices where professionals involved in his divorce worked.
The killings took place in Phoenix, Scottsdale and Fountain Hills.
Jones shot himself after police traced him to a hotel room in Scottsdale.
