She told police the incident began when Jones got angry with her, grabbed her and began kicking her in the back. Then, Jones grabbed the heated Crock Pot and beat her over the head with it.

Police say the victim’s injuries match her account of the alleged abuse.

“The victim had visible injuries, as well as defensive marks on her arms, to corroborate the assault with the Crock Pot, which due to the heat and weight, was a dangerous instrument,” says an arrest report written by Madisonville Police Department Officer Joseph Keelin.

Police who searched the apartment shared by the two allegedly found marijuana, rolling papers and a crack pipe.
If found guilty, Jones could see up to ten years in prison for the beating alone.
