A.J. Jones, 19, was shot and killed on the streets of Newark, New Jersey, on July 5, 2018. His death prompted an investigation by local authorities and the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office.

Investigators identified several persons of interest. One of those named in connection with the case was Jeffrey Holland, already known to law enforcement for involvement in other violent crimes; prosecutors considered charges including murder and unlawful possession of a weapon. Holland was later convicted for an unrelated 2016 triple murder and received a lengthy prison sentence. Reports indicate several suspects were reportedly arrested in the Jones investigation, but the final disposition of charges specifically tied to A.J.
