DAKOTA CITY, Neb. (KCAU) — In the second day of the Jason Jones quadruple homicide trial, jurors saw the details of the crime scene up close as investigators testified.

Day two of the trial began with a family member of the three Twifords who were killed. The family member said Gene Twiford had some cognitive issues, but was a friendly man.

Nebraska State Patrol investigators then took the witness stand for several hours. State prosecutors introduced a series of crime scene photos, as well as video taken from inside and around the home of Michele Ebeling, the fourth of the victims Jones is accused of killing.

State patrol investigator Tim Doggett was asked to identify exhibits and explain to the jury what they were seeing. Doggett made mention of items, including shell casings and a gas can, as well as the location and condition of Ebeling's body.
