– Genene Jones, 69, once dubbed the “Angel of Death” faced a Bexar County judge Thursday and pleaded guilty to the 1981 murder of Joshua Sawyer, an infant under her care.
Jones is suspected of killing more than 40 babies during her time as a pediatric nurse in San Antonio and Kerrville in the late 70s and early 80s. However, the now-shuttered hospital Jones worked for shredded thousands of pounds of medical records concerning infant deaths just as a grand jury investigation was taking shape.
This means for every day a prisoner showed good behavior behind bars they were allowed to knock a day off the end of the time they are required to remain in prison before the state is required to grant them parole. In Jones’ case, it meant she would have been released from prison in March of 2017. “So I will leave you with this, I hope for you to live a long and miserable life behind bars, goodbye,” said Sawyer’s mother, Connie Weeks during her victim impact statement.
