In 1976, Jerry Lee Jones, along with two other accomplices, took the life of twenty-one year old college student Quenette Shehane. Jones was twice convicted of capital murder and senteneced to die in the electric chair, but those convictions were overturned on appeal. In his third trial he was convicted in March of 1982 of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison, which allows him to be considered for parole.
Quenette Shehane is the daughter of Miriam Shehane, a founder of VOCAL, Victims of Crime & Leniency. Mrs. Shehane has devoted her life to helping other crime victims since her daughter was brutally taken from her family.
Please voice your outrage against the consideration of parole for Jerry Lee Jones. Speak for Quenette and the Shehane family and keep this murderer behind bars.
One hundred people have stepped forward to say this is wrong. It is exhausting to revisit these details but seeing this support reminds me why we cannot let this go.

Life must mean life. How many times does this guy have to go to court before he stays there for good? Keep him locked up.

Some crimes you just never get to walk away from. Keep him behind bars where he belongs.

MONSTER. He should never see the light of day again after what he did to that girl. My heart breaks for her mother.

NO parole. Period. He took a life and should forfeit his freedom forever.

This poor family has been through enough already. Why are they still torturing them with hearings? Let it be done already.

Justice for Quenette. Denial is the only option here.
