Thomas Frank Jones V, 35, was killed during a home invasion in the southwest valley of Las Vegas on the afternoon of November 5, 2016. Two men forced their way into his Sandpiper Way residence intending to steal a stash box containing drugs and money; Jones sustained a gunshot wound to the head and died at the scene.

Jones’s roommate and girlfriend were present. The roommate fled through a window after being confronted by an intruder, while the girlfriend had hidden in a bathroom and, at Jones’s direction, handed over the stash box. She was assaulted during a struggle before Jones was shot.

Police identified 18-year-old Cody Sullivan and 25-year-old Jorge Latorre as the alleged intruders after witness identifications, public tips, and surveillance footage from a neighbor corroborated the roommate’s account. Sullivan was arrested on November 12 and Latorre on November 17; both faced charges including murder, robbery with a deadly weapon, and burglary with a firearm.

Does anyone have information about Jones, his household, or the events around November 5, 2016 that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
