JACKSBORO, TN. (WLAF)- Cameron Jones has seen his case reset for May 8. His latest case was on the docket last week for a status hearing.

Jones, a career offender, is facing several charges including aggravated assault, five counts of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and aggravated stalking.

Jones netted his 45th arrest when he allegedly attempted to kill a county employee in Sept. 2022.

At the time of his alleged assault on the employee, Jones was out on a $120,000 bond from criminal court. In March 2022, he was indicted on aggravated assault, five counts of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, aggravated stalking, possession of a schedule VI controlled substance and three counts of possession of drug paraphernalia.

During a prior hearing, that bond was revoked meaning he remained at the Knox County Jail. However, he has since been moved to the Campbell County Jail where he remains this morning without bond, according to a jail official.

Jones, 40, who has more arrests than he does years alive, has served the appropriate sentences for all of his prior crimes. However, he has continued to commit crimes putting himself back into the court system. Jones has a lengthy criminal record dating back to his first arrest in 1999 for evading arrest. Among his other charges are possession of schedule VI controlled substance, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and filing a false report.

Earlier this year, he was jailed for aggravated stalking. His most recent arrest was in July for misusing the county’s 911 service. (WLAF NEWS PUBLISHED 03/06/2023- 6AM)
