This latest victim was identified from explicit photos that were found on a computer belonging to Jones and confiscated by investigators. It should be noted that the photos found on that computer corroborate much of the information gathered from the victims to date.
Jones was booked on three additional charges; explicit photos of a child under the age of 14 and exploitation of a minor. both of which are felonies. A misdemeanor charge of annoying or molesting a child was also filed.
As a result of the additional charges, the judge in this case has agreed to raise the bail amount of Jones from one million dollars to no bail. The investigation is continuing.
