At Rest

Deadly force
Ruidoso Police Department Corporal Lance Ledford and Officer Joseph Baily were investigating a domestic disturbance when they both fatally shot Jones in his home. In spite of orders, he had approached them and his mother with a sword. It was the department's first fatal officer-involved shooting.
This record exists so that Timothy Jones, and all who are named in this archive, are never reduced to a number.
