As the 5-year anniversary of the murder of Janina Jefferson approaches, the Wise County Sheriff's Office continues to remember Jefferson and the impact her death has had on her family, friends and community.

The WCSO is also continuing the search for Eric Jones, Jefferson's ex-husband:

"The Sheriff’s Office along with the United States Marshall’s Service have received and followed up on tips from all corners of the United States, along with the countries of Mexico and Canada. This murder has been broadcast thoughout the nation and other countries thanks to programs like Crime Watch Daily, and In Pursuit with John Walsh. Janina suffered an untimely death at the hands of Eric Jones and we seek justice for her family. We are asking if anyone has any information on the whereabouts of Eric Jones please contact the Wise County Sheriff's Office, or the US Marshall Service."

Jones was charged with domestic assault and battery and strangulation after a domestic dispute with Jefferson.

Officials say they received information that prompted the issuance of an emergency protective order against Jones on November 1, 2016.

The WCSO says evidence shows that Jones received a ride to Jefferson's place of employment on November 27, 2016, and "ambushed her and shot her multiple times as she was exiting her vehicle."
