Reese Jones, 36, of Madison, was sentenced on Friday for killing his wife Erin Jones, 36, in front of the couple’s infant daughter in 2022.

He was sentenced to 20 years in prison.

Although he was initially facing a capital murder charge for the shooting, the state amended the charge to manslaughter, according to court records.

Jones, who worked as a defense contractor at Lockheed Martin, also told others he suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder and had considered killing himself with a pistol, according to his testimony in 2022.

He was released on bond later that year and became a house manager for “His Way” in Huntsville, an addiction recovery program, according to court documents.

In August of 2024, Jones was arrested again for harassing another man at the program.

According to court documents, he had pushed the man and threatened to beat him up.

But Jones was bonded out again before his trial began last November.

He was booked into the Madison County Jail to await his sentencing after entering a guilty plea this April.

Jones will receive credit for his time served, court records say.
