On February 1, 1998, the body of 34-year-old Antoinette Jones was found behind a business near Poplar Place South and South Bush Street in Seattle. Forensic analysis determined she had been strangled and tied up about three months before discovery; her wrists and ankles were bound with shoelaces and a shoelace was also around her neck. Court documents state she was strangled with a leather belt after being accused of stealing drugs from the killer.

Jones was one of three women whose deaths were linked during the investigation. The probe led to DeWayne Lee Harris, who was already jailed on an unrelated robbery charge when he contacted a detective and later confessed to all three killings. Harris was charged with three counts of first-degree murder, convicted on all counts, and sentenced in January 1999 to 94 years in prison; court accounts describe disruptive behavior and a lack of remorse at sentencing.

Did anyone in the Seattle area know Antoinette Jones or have information about her last months alive?
