He was watching their daughter the night Wade went missing.

Wade moved to Ennis with her mother, Shirley, who said Jones wouldn't have hurt her daughter. "He loved Emily, he loves Emily. They just didn't mesh together. But they love their daughter equally," she told an NBC reporter. "And I don't think Jared would ever hurt the mother of his child." Hopson also told INSIDER that the co-worker who was the last to see Wade was cooperating with police and allowed them to search his home and vehicle. Hopson said there was no indication of foul play. As of Tuesday afternoon, no one has been charged in her death. Police continue to search for the car that Wade was driving the night she went missing. It's a 2012 silver Nissan Altima with the Kentucky licence plate number 411 PAZ.
