Armand Jones was 18 and an actor from Anaheim, California when he was killed on March 17, 2006. He had just finished filming for the movie Freedom Writers and was celebrating the wrap with friends at a nightclub. The group later stopped at a nearby Denny’s in Anaheim.

While two friends were being robbed at gunpoint in the restaurant restroom by gang members Damon Hill and Jarrell Kelly, Jones entered and had jewelry taken. He chased the robbers into the parking lot in an attempt to recover his belongings and was shot in the chest and killed. Another man, Ronnell Spencer, was shot in the head and survived.

Police identified Hill and Kelly as participants and charged them with murder, attempted murder and multiple counts of second-degree robbery; their cases included gang-related sentencing enhancements. Subsequent prosecutions named Charles Michael Reynolds and Stanley Miles Simons Jr. for roles in the crime.

Did anyone who knew Armand or was in that area that night come forward with details about what happened outside the Denny’s?
