In the early morning of April 17, 2015, a fire that was intentionally set tore through a home in the 2400 block of North 38th Street near Wright Street in Milwaukee. Dontray L. Jones, 28, and Michea S. Sampson, 25, were found dead in a first-floor bedroom closet after firefighters brought the blaze under control. Fire crews arriving shortly after 3:15 a.m. faced a heavy fire and explosions from oxygen cylinders inside the house; one occupant escaped by jumping from a window and suffered numerous cuts.

The fire was ruled arson and investigators from the Milwaukee Police Department, state fire marshals, and ATF agents treated the deaths as homicides. Authorities said a suspect had been developed, and two people were arrested at the house on the day of the fire on unrelated charges. Family and friends remembered Jones as a devoted father and gathered for visitation and funeral services to grieve his loss.

Does anyone have information about that night or knew Dontray Jones and can help fill gaps in the timeline?
