Defending Your Life

For nearly 17 years, sisters Kim and Beth Jones of Snohomish, Washington, have been trying to prove that their father, Jerry Jones, Jr. is innocent of the Dec. 3, 1988 stabbing murder of their mother, Lee. Jones was tried and found guilty of his wife’s murder, but in 1999, an appeals court ordered him released due to an ineffective lawyer. This episode last aired on 12/29/07. After you listen to this episode, don’t miss the "Killer Conversation" companion episode in the 48 Hours podcast feed. Through behind-the-scenes stories and moments that never made it to air, Killer Conversation pulls back the curtain on what it’s really like to sit across from someone capable of murder and how that experience still haunts them years later.
