From the KCPAO’s sentencing memo:
Stacy Falcon-Dewey was just 23 years old when she was viciously raped and murdered. She was a beloved mother, daughter, sister and a treasured co-worker and friend to many people. Her unsolved murder and the brutality of her final moments haunted her family, friends and the community for decades. Tragically, Stacy’s mother passed away prior to this trial. Jacob Dewey was three and a half years old when he was murdered. As a toddler, Jacob posed no threat whatsoever to Jones. The heinous and utterly senseless murder of Jacob flies in the face of every human value.
