DETROIT (WJBK) - The father of a Detroit girl fatally shot during a police raid is expected in court Wednesday to face first degree murder charges.
Charles Jones, 26, is charged in connection with the death of 17-year-old Je'rean Blake. It's alleged that Jones gave a gun to Chauncey Owens, who used the weapon to murder Blake back in May 2010.
Police were looking for Owens at the time of the raid on Jones' home. It was then that seven-year-old Aiyana Jones was shot and killed by police.
In April, Owens accepted a plea deal in the case and was sentenced to 30 years in prison.
