The family of Jones spoke out on Friday.

“It’s been hard on all of us,” Jones’ oldest daughter, Jazmine Jones, told FOX 26. “She was a grandmother, mother, daughter, auntie.”

“It’s not fair at all,” Jazmine Jones told KTRK_TV in Houston. “We understand we have to have due process, but when is enough enough when you’ve taken someone’s life?”

Violent defendants being released on bond is a growing problem in Harris County, the district attorney’s office said in a 60-page report last week, claiming judges who release defendants on multiple felony or personal-recognizance bonds are driving a rise in crime, FOX 26 reported. 

Teare said that when defendants violate the condition of their bond they should be returned to jail until their case is over “for the safety of the community, for the safety of everyone involved.”

Washington will remain in jail until her trial, FOX 26 reported. 

Last month the family of a pregnant woman, Caitlynne Guajardo, who was allegedly murdered by her ex-husband while he was out on bond in 2019 for allegedly assaulting her, sued Harris County for allowing his release, the station reported.
