Justin Jones, 41, was jailed Wednesday in Lake County, Fla., on charges of first-degree murder, sexual battery and false imprisonment.
Jones has been charged with first-degree murder, sexual battery, and false imprisonment.
He is set to be arraigned in court on September 27. The alleged victim claimed that she witnessed the killing, prompting Jones to tie her up and sexually assault her for hours, according to detectives.
The witness said she finally got away once she asked to use the bathroom. She sprinted to neighbors where she called for help.
The woman witness — who told authorities she saw the fatal beating of Finister — alleged that Jones tied her hands with duct tape and zip ties, tore off her clothes and sexually assaulted her for hours, and she finally escaped after asking to use the bathroom.
The affidavit stated that at the time of Jones’ arrest, he confessed to the killings and the sexual assault.
Jones had been scheduled to make his first court appearance Thursday but reportedly refused to go before a judge.
He is being held without bond pending his arraignment Sept. 27.
Lake County Sheriff's deputies responded to a call at the Thousand Trails Resort and RV park around 2pm. A woman said she was brutally tied up and raped after she witnessed a horrifying murder.
When investigators arrived, they discovered two bodies inside a blood-spattered RV, a chilling affidavit states.
Officials believe that Jones beat his wife Sandra Gaudino, 38, with a hammer, wrapped her body in a trash bag, and put it under a mattress.
The next day, Jones' 17-year-old stepson came home to discover the mess, police said.
