GLENDALE, AZ — J.J. Jones would have been 20 years old this week, but instead of celebrating the big milestone, his mother is remembering the life he lived.
Jones was shot and killed in December 2020 near 43rd Avenue and Bethany Home Road. The teen was found in a parking lot with a gunshot wound and was taken to a hospital where he later died.
ABC15’s Ford Hatchett sat down with Jones’s mother on Tuesday to talk about the case and what has happened in the years since his death.
