The man charged with murder over a pair of methadone soaked underwear is now being charged with manslaughter instead of murder.
A trial date has been set for Michael Jones who is accused of smuggling drug soaked underwear into jail leading to an inmate’s death. Investigators say Jones got a pass from jail to attend a funeral. When he returned he was already wearing underwear soaked in methadone. Jones is accused of tearing up the underwear and giving pieces to several inmates. Cory McQueary died from an overdose of methadone and several other inmates tested positive for methadone. The Jessamine Journal reports that Jones is set to go on trail May 4th.
