Michael Jones

Michael Jones is a wrongfully convicted man who came to Delaware at age 17 for a summer vacation in 1999—only to have his life stolen by a corrupt criminal justice system. Framed for a double homicide by a detective who falsified evidence, fabricated witness statements, and ignored key facts, Michael became the target of a political cover-up. One of the victims was related to State Representative Hazel D. Plant, leading to intense pressure to “solve” the case—at any cost.

Despite medical records showing the only surviving victim was unconscious at the time police claimed he identified Michael, prosecutors pressed on. Michael’s trial was riddled with perjury, judicial misconduct, and political interference—including a judge who was overheard vowing to “make sure he dies,” a fact later confirmed in sworn affidavits. The very foundations of justice were abandoned to secure a conviction.

Now, with certified court documents, recorded evidence, and a growing body of support behind him, Michael Jones fights not only for his freedom—but to expose the system that tried to bury him alive. His story is chronicled in “Free Michael Jones” (YouTube: Simone Love Harris, Parts 1 & 2), and stands as a chilling reminder of how far corruption can reach when truth is inconvenient.
