Contra Costa District Attorney Diana Becton filed a murder charge (PC 187) on May 26, 2022, against Marshall Curtis Jones, III for the killing of 24-year-old Oakley resident, Alexis Gabe.
Yesterday evening, in Kent, Washington, Jones was shot and killed by law enforcement personnel during an attempted fugitive apprehension.
24-year-old Gabe has been missing since January 26, 2022, after last being seen in Antioch.
Due to the nature and scope of the investigation, Oakley Police requested investigative assistance from the Contra Costa District Attorney’s Office and Antioch Police Department.
On April 25, 2022, Antioch Police Department authored a wiretap affidavit, and presented to the Contra Costa Superior Court for approval. A wire and electronic interception of Jones’ cellular phone concluded on May 24. Along with the phone intercept recordings, surveillance footage, cell data, and DNA evidence, investigators made a criminal referral to the Contra Costa District Attorney’s Office on May 25.
After the criminal complaint was filed on May 26, the DA’s Office, Antioch Police, Oakley Police, the U.S. Marshals Service, and Washington State authorities coordinated to apprehend Jones – who, during the course of the investigation, fled from Antioch to Kent, Washington.
On June 1, 2022, a fugitive task force attempted to arrest Jones inside an apartment where he was in hiding. Police announced themselves, and Jones reportedly opened the front door to the apartment and charged at officers while wielding a knife. He was shot by authorities. Police took immediate life-saving measures, but Jones died at the scene.
Members of Gabe’s family found her blue Infinity coupe about a mile from her home on Trenton Street near Carrington Drive in Oakley the day after she went missing. The keys were still inside, and the vehicle was unlocked.
Shortly thereafter, the Oakley Police Department started an investigation into the highly suspicious circumstances of Gabe’s disappearance.
Gabe’s former boyfriend, Marshall Curtis Jones, III became a focus of the investigation – which culminated in the wire and electronic interception of his cellular phone. Jones and Gabe had reportedly broken up in November 2021 but saw each other from time to time. Jones confirmed to investigators that he and Alexis were together at his home on Cedar Point Way in Antioch until 9 o’clock on the night she went missing, but that he witnessed her leaving his residence in the blue Infinity coupe she arrived in earlier.
Well Becton won’t have worry about letting him out on bail.
George Soros has donated over $1 million dollars to Diana Becton’s campaign. I wonder what he expects to get in return?
It’s blood, george soros wants blood.
That’s the best ending for a murder.
It’s sad the family doesn’t get closure, but yeah. It really is better this way. And less expensive than putting him on trial.
Good police work with a satisfying outcome.

Ya can’t convict a dead person.

…well that saves a lot of time and $$ – unfortunately the family still doesn’t know where she is…. the very first week or reports I said it was the BF of 3 yrs, she broke it off with him and he resented it to put it mildly….
So he took the quick and easy way out. Maybe someday her body will be found.
Police had “ phone intercept recordings, surveillance footage, cell data, and DNA evidence”
With all that I bet they have or know where she is.
Chicken crap way out, suicide by cop. Looser to the end.
So why announce and why not arrest him in the open? And why are we hearing about it so many days later?
It was only one day. The arrest attempt was June 1st. It’s too bad they could not take him alive to hopefully locate her remains.
Another POS off the street. No trial, no bail, done!!!
Enough with these nasty ex boyfriends.
Gut feeling: She improved her life by getting the nursing degree. Knew he was not going anywhere and broke up with him. He knew she could do much better than him and went with the “If I can’t have her, nobody can.” BS because he’s insecure.
I feel sorry for her and her family and friends. Just awful.
