Aaron Jones, 23, was found shot to death in November 2019 in the basement of his east side Indianapolis home. Friends discovered the scene after finding a door open and a four-year-old child alone but unharmed inside. Jones sold high-end clothing and sneakers from his residence, and investigators reported the home appeared to have been ransacked.

Home security footage captured two men entering the house on the day of the killing; one was seen leaving with two backpacks before returning. Detectives identified the men as Johnathan Quarles and Gabriel West Jr., and learned Quarles had known Jones since grade school. Quarles later admitted to witnessing West shoot Jones. Both men were arrested, tried, and the jury found them guilty; Gabriel West Jr. was convicted of murder, felony murder, and robbery resulting in serious bodily injury and given a 55-year sentence, while Johnathan Quarles was convicted of robbery resulting in serious bodily injury and received a 19-year sentence.

Did anyone in the Indianapolis community recognize activity or individuals around Jones’s home in November 2019?
