Trina Jones, a 60-year-old woman from Bluff City, Tennessee, was found with an apparent gunshot wound on May 31, 2021. The Sullivan County Sheriff’s Office and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation described the case as an active homicide investigation that led to an arrest.

Authorities charged 26-year-old Misty James of Johnson City with felony murder and aggravated burglary in connection with Jones’s death. Investigators say a confidential informant provided a 19-minute video in which James allegedly described the killing and admitted intending to steal from the victim’s home. James was held on $100,000 bond and a trial date was set for June 26th.

Friends and family remembered Jones as generous and kind. Does anyone in Bluff City have information about Trina Jones, her household, or the events of late May 2021 that could help clarify what happened?
