Augusta, GA Criminal Defense Attorney News ArchiveMan found guilty of murder in the beating death of daughterWillie C. Jones will be spending the rest of his life in jail with no chance of parole after the jury convicted him for the death of his daughter. Before her death, four-year-old Tyasia Phillips, who incurred a head wound, had been connected to a life support after she was severely beaten and burned by the man whom she called dad. Jones had alleged that his daughter had injured her head when she tried to escape from him. Augusta attorney Katrell Nash, defending for Jones, appealed to the jury to consider the likelihood that the little girl had gotten the head wound while playing with other kids. At first, Jones had denied hurting his daughter but later admitted to the crime saying that he had beaten her for her insolence. |
