Authorities: The suspect is being held without bond after Robyn Jones, 44, was shot and died inside her home.

 The community has been rocked by a terrible and frightening case as authorities confirmed that 44-year-old Robyn Jones was shot and killed inside her own home on what should have been a typical evening.

The Death by Shooting

According to investigators, Robyn Jones invited Sawyer, a man she knew and who was mentioned in court documents, into her home. As music played in the kitchen, the situation turned violent. Sawyer shot Jones in the back of the head, killing her instantaneously, according to the authorities.

At the time of the shooting, the residence also included three children, two of whom were only five years old and one of whom was sixteen. Police accuse Sawyer of sexually and severely abusing another woman present and threatening to kill her if she made any noise.

Returning to the Scene

After the incident, Sawyer first fled the house, but he returned shortly after. He allegedly smashed the victim's phone and kicked in the door before leaving again. His actions were described by investigators as both violent and well-planned, showing a lack of concern for the safety of everyone within, particularly the children who witnessed the aftermath.

Previous Violations

Due to previous convictions for drug charges, unlawful gun usage, and resisting arrest, Sawyer was already on probation at the time of the attack. Authorities emphasized the seriousness of his violent escalation, considering his probationary status.

Cases in Court

Sawyer was quickly arrested following the incident. During his initial court appearance, a judge refused to grant him bond, ordering him to remain in detention while the case is still pending. The prosecution cited his prior criminal history, the seriousness of the offense, and the danger to survivors as justifications for his detention.

Shock and Sadness in the Neighborhood

Neighbors and community members have expressed their fury and grief over the incident, calling Jones's death an unimaginable tragedy. Friends described her as a kind, kind woman whose life was brutally taken.

Since children were present at the time of the murder, calls for justice and additional protections against serial killers who jeopardize families and communities have become louder.

Further Investigation

Police are still investigating the murder's circumstances and the suspect's actions before and after the shooting. Support services are being provided to the children and the mom who survived the abuse.

Authorities invite anyone with additional information that could aid the case to contact local investigators.
