    An in-depth look into the Anna Jones murder case

    “The investigation then indicates Sigman walked into the parking deck and began shooting into a parked vehicle striking the victim. Friends immediately drove her to the hospital where she was pronounced deceased.”

    Richard Sigman and another guy got into a verbal confrontation in the parking lot of an Italian restaurant around midnight, according to reports made public by Carrollton Police. In between the arguments, the accused allegedly threatened to draw a gun on him.

    Carrollton Police Department posted on Facebook,

    The man informed the security guard of Sigman’s threats. The guard allegedly asked Sigman to leave after spotting him with a gun. Sigman, however, turned around and began firing into a car that was parked in a lot near to Carrollton’s well-known entertainment district, Adamson Square.

    It is unknown if Anna Jones, who was allegedly struck during this time, was the intended victim. Her pals allegedly drove her to the hospital, where she was subsequently pronounced dead, according to police.

    Jones has established a GoFundMe page to cover her burial costs. Jones was praised in the event as being stunning and having a contagious smile. It further states,

    “This was a devastating and senseless crime that left a lot of hearts broken, a community mourning, and a family grieving.”

    Her friends and family members also posted on social media to express their shock and grief. Stephanie Hodges, one of her previous students, noted that Anna had a natural knack for teaching youngsters and was eager to pursue a career in that field.
