PRESS RELEASE – Insurance and Safety Fire Commissioner John F. King announced today that Bryan Dwayne Jones, 51, of Dallas, Georgia, has been arrested for murder and arson in connection with a Paulding County fire.
Just before 8:30 p.m. on the evening of April 22nd, Paulding County firefighters responded to multiple 911 calls regarding a mobile home fire on Due West Road in Dallas. Upon extinguishment, firefighters discovered the body of Deborah Jones, 72, along with a family pet.
