Tara Marie Jones, 41, and her husband Taylor Glenn Jones, 43, were shot and killed on May 4, 2024, in the Village of Wellington, Florida, during a dispute with neighbor Norman Scott over a basketball hoop and a property line. Surveillance footage shows Scott upset and yelling; Taylor Jones made non-threatening gestures toward the hoop. Scott then drew a firearm and fired three or four shots at Taylor as he retreated, turned and shot Tara from about 20 to 30 feet while she remained on her property, and fired two more shots after returning to his home.

A witness found both victims injured and later reported Scott admitted to the shootings, saying the Joneses attacked him first, a claim contradicted by the video. Norman Scott, 63, was arrested and booked on two counts of first-degree premeditated murder with a firearm and pleaded not guilty through his attorney. The couple left behind four children and a grieving community.

Does anyone have information about the neighborhood dispute or witnessed the confrontation?
