Mr. Jones was convicted of the 1990 murders of Jacob and Matilda Nestor, who were fatally stabbed. A jury voted 10-2 to recommend a death sentence for the murder of Mrs. Nestor and voted unanimously to recommend a death sentence for the murder of Mr. Nestor. He was condemned for both murders and this Court upheld his convictions and sentences on direct appeal. In this post-conviction appeal, Mr. Jones argues that he is mentally retarded and ineligible for the death penalty.
