0:00.0	Hi everyone I hope you're all doing so well and welcome back to the Criminal Makeup podcast.
0:14.6	Each episode we dive into the minds of some of the worst criminals in history and today we're going to be talking
0:21.1	about the case of Timothy Jones Jr. So happy new year,
0:25.2	everyone. First of all, I hope you all enjoyed the holidays. I hope you all had a good rest.
0:30.4	So today, the case that I have to start off 2023 is not a nice one at all. I mean when are they ever nice but this one in particular is not nice at all.
0:42.0	So Timothy Jones Jr. was a father to five young children and the
0:47.0	ages of these children were from one to eight years old and these children they were so sweet they were so innocent I mean of
0:55.5	course they are but there was one problem Timothy was a terrible dad he was
1:01.5	controlling he was manipulative, he was abusive and he literally

1:44.3	cover lesser known cases when I can. So let's dive in. Timothy Jones Jr. was born in 1982. I couldn't find an exact birthday for him and it is believed that he grew up in Mississippi before later moving to
2:05.6	Lexington, South Carolina where today's case takes place. Now Timothy had a very troubled childhood and I say that a lot but I truly mean it for Timothy.
2:16.3	And there is also a very complicated family history that I am going to go through but it is very complicated I've tried to make it as simple as possible
2:24.5	but there are going to be a lot of characters so bear with me but there were three key people
2:29.1	in the upbringing of Timothy that's Timothy's dad mom and his grandmother all three of them also had a very troubled childhood
