On March 27, 2022, authorities reported that Brian Jones traveled from South Carolina to Bessemer and walked into the Bessemer Police Department to admit what had occurred. This is the reason for the guilty plea that he has decided to enter.
Jones allegedly confessed to the murder of Janet Luxford, who was 41 years old at the time, in February of 2001 as a result of this.
Jones accompanied the police to a place in Bessemer the day after he had spoken with them, claiming that he had left her remains there. A suitcase containing skeleton remains was discovered by the police at that time.
On October 7, 2024, Brian Jones entered a guilty plea to the act of murder. His sentence will be twenty-one years in prison, as stated in the documents filed with the court.
