Kristopher Jones was indicted for capital murder in the commission of a robbery, and capital murder in the commission of abduction, both for the death of Minnie Woodard.

Jones was also indicted on a charge of capital murder, killing more than one person in three years. The charge is related to the murder of his girlfriend, Janice Lugo, 52. Jones was also indicted for the first-degree murder and abduction of her.

The commonwealth’s attorney told CBS 6 that they are still considering whether to pursue the death penalty.

"I don't necessarily want to see the death penalty for him," Tony Woodard said. "Whatever it is that God gives him, whether that's life in prison without parole or whatever it is we're going to deal with it."
