On February 9th, 2023, Crystal Jones was found dead in her home from a gunshot wound to the head. Despite a minimal investigation, authorities ruled her death a suicide—leaving her family devastated and searching for answers. Her sister, Jana, refused to accept this ruling, uncovering shocking inconsistencies in the evidence and contradictions in her husband Tony Jones' account of that day. Was Crystal’s death truly suicide, or was it something far more sinister?

Join us as we partner with Jana to investigate the truth behind Crystal’s case, exposing overlooked details, law enforcement missteps, and chilling evidence that suggests this was not suicide—but murder.

Thank you to Jana for trusting us and for her assistance in this case.
