ELIZABETH, NJ.- According to Union County Prosecutor William A. Daniel, on Friday, January 26, 2024, a Union County Superior Court Judge Sentenced a 26-Year-Old Rahway, New Jersey woman to New Jersey State Prison for The 2020 Stabbing Death of her 58-Year-Old Mother.
Following a Three-Week trial before Union County Superior Court Judge Thomas Isenhour, on Friday, November 3, 2023, Malika Jones, 26, of Rahway, New Jersey was Found Guilty on a Charge of Aggravated Manslaughter. On Friday, January 26, 2024, during a Court Hearing, Judge Isenhour Sentenced Ms. Jones to a Term of 10 Years in New Jersey State Prison. The Sentence is Subject to The No Early Release Act which will require Ms. Jones to Serve Eighty-Five Percent of her Custodial Term before becoming eligible for Parole.
The Sentence and Conviction stem from an incident, when on Sunday, February 16, 2020, shortly after 3:00 p.m., Members of The Rahway Police Department responded to a Residence located on The 100 Block of East Albert Street in Rahway, on a report of a Stabbing. Upon arrival, Police Officers found Inell Jones, 58, deceased from an Apparent Stab Wound. Malika Jones was Taken into Custody at that time.
"While this sentence does not bring Mrs. Inell Jones back, we hope it can bring some relief to all those in mourning," said Union County Prosecutor Daniel. "I commend the dedicated efforts of Assistant Prosecutor Robert Grady, Sergeant Christopher Scuorzo, Detective Ryan Kirsh, Lieutenant Danika Ramos, and Detective Kevin Stanicki for their exceptional work on this case."
