    This week we are going to be covering the mysterious death of Jessica Johnson. The reason it is such a mystery is because of the divide in how people think Jessica met her unfortunate death. Police are going to rule this as a suicide, and it looks like the public is taking the opinion it was a murder. How could we have such a difference in opinion? Well, the investigation appears to have some large holes in it as well as mistakes. Plus, we find ourselves in a situation where we go to look for evidence that has disappeared. Jessica was last seen alive on June 1, 2017 and was found tied or hung (depending on opinion) to a mailbox on June 2, 2017. We have some suspicious characters and events involved and that leaves most of us with a lot of unanswered questions. In this weeks 'sode, Justin will give you the details and be looking for the debrief that will drop the following week where Justin and Mike break the case down further.

There is a lot of information and theories that go into this one. Because Jones claims that not all evidence was included in his original trial, mainly his alibi, its hard to go back 20+ years to tie it all together.  I believe his best defense at this point is a corrupt DA and a  tainted jury. There are multiple stories that play out in this case and some of them are happening simultaneously and that is another reason I believe this is a hard one. It kind of makes it difficult to follow along but I think it is a story that need to be told. Sources for this episode include:https://www.the-sun.com/news/4075575/paul-howell-murder-explainer/https://innoceneproject.org/julius-jones-death-row-oklahoma-what-to-know/https://medium.com/@freepaperspodcast/the-terrifying-case-of-julius-jones-878fec81e50f
