Elwood Jones is one step closer to permanently being a free man.
The state’s case against him in a 1994 murder in Cincinnati-suburb Blue Ash has fallen to pieces as Hamilton County, Ohio, prosecutors attempt a last-ditch appeal to bring back crucial testimony that was central to their case.
The testimony in question came from former Blue Ash Police officer Michael Bray, who said in Jones’ original trial that he alone found a necklace belonging to the murder victim, Rhoda Nathan, in Jones’ car.
