Matthew Jones, 44, was found stabbed to death in the front yard of his parents’ home on Ridge Oak Drive in Suwanee, Georgia, on the morning of September 5, 2022. His parents were away at the time. Family described him as a kind, simple man who worked at a local grocery store and enjoyed family game nights, singing, reading scripture, and following his favorite sports teams.

The case was unsolved for more than two years until a December 2024 letter to the New York Police Department confessed to several crimes, including Jones’s killing, and included nonpublic details about the stabbing. That lead resulted in the March 2025 arrest of 20-year-old Delano Hill. Authorities say Hill reportedly confessed and claimed Jones was killed by mistake after Hill went to the wrong house intending to confront someone accused of sexual assault.

A judge found probable cause in April 2025 for the case to proceed to trial. Does anyone have information about Matthew, his family, or the Ridge Oak Drive neighborhood that could help clarify what happened?
