Genelle Conway-Allen was also yet another white girl whose parents couldn’t be bothered to take care of her, and who thereby delivered her unto evil.

The arrest of a local barber Friday in the killing of a 13-year-old girl in Fairfield brought the victim's family and the community some relief, but left them wondering why the teenager was targeted, her nude body dumped in a city park.

Anthony Lamar Jones, 32, of Fairfield is accused of killing Genelle Conway-Allen of Suisun City, who was last seen Jan. 31. Her body was found early the next day in Allan Witt Park in Fairfield.

Jones was booked into Solano County jail on suspicion of murder, rape, kidnapping to commit rape and lewd acts on a child. Solano County prosecutors must decide what charges to file before Jones' scheduled court arraignment on Wednesday.

Jones, whose wife filed a domestic violence restraining order against him three days before Genelle went missing, is being held without bail at the jail, where he declined to be interviewed.


Early suspect

At a news conference, police officials said Jones acted alone, but they did not say how he crossed paths with Genelle or how she died.

Jones was identified as a suspect "early on in the investigation" and was placed on 24-hour surveillance before being arrested about 7 a.m. Friday on the 1100 block of East Tabor Avenue in Fairfield, said police Sgt. Rebecca Belk.

That address is half a block from where a police surveillance camera took the last known photo of Genelle late the afternoon of Jan. 31. She is believed to have taken the bus home that day from Green Valley Middle School in Fairfield, where she was a seventh-grader.

Police obtained undisclosed evidence tying Jones to the slaying, said Belk, who declined to elaborate and did not take questions, citing a continuing investigation.

Genelle lived in a foster home at the time of her slaying. Her biological mother, Crystal Conway of Vallejo, said no one in her family knew Jones.

"I'm very sad my angel is gone," Crystal Conway said in a text message to a Chronicle reporter. "She was a good kid and she had a lot of dreams."

The girl's father, 32-year-old Joshua Allen of Richmond, said he was struggling with drug addiction and hadn't seen his daughter since Thanksgiving of 2011.

"I hope it's the guy," he said, "and if it is, he'll get what he deserves."

In a statement, Genelle's foster family said they were "overwhelmed by emotion."

"With tears in our hearts, we can now begin to say goodbye to sweet Genelle," the statement read. "Genelle, we love you so much. We always will."


Evening vigil

Friday evening, about 200 people gathered near the spot where Genelle's body was found, holding candles and sharing a moment of silence. The vigil drew a mix of strangers, family members and schoolmates.

[Because that’s what white people do. They don’t march in the street for vengeance, they hold candle-light vigils. That’ll show those black rapist-killers!]

Eric May, 54, the homeless man who said he found Genelle's body last Friday, lit a candle and said he was haunted by the memory.

[In other words, the reporters are skeptical as to whether he actually found her, and suspect him of just seeking publicity.]

"But it warms my heart to see all these people here," he said. "This is how a community that wants to heal responds."

Jones lives on the 2500 block of Clipper Lane in Fairfield, where neighbors said they were awakened Friday by the sound of police officers and FBI agents swarming his gray, two-story home.

Officers towed Jones' minivan from the house, residents said. In the afternoon, crime scene technicians in white lab suits moved in and out of the home.

Manuel Garcia, 17, who lives across the street, said he had noticed nothing unusual about Jones, who sometimes gave a teenage boy haircuts in his garage.

But Jones' wife, Divina Jones, filed for a restraining order on Jan. 28, court records show. The Fairfield Daily Republic reported that she told the court she was so scared of Jones, from whom she had separated in December, that she jumped out of their moving car on Jan. 25.

"I believe that if I brought him back to the house, he would kill me and then kill himself," she wrote. "Anthony looked at me and said, 'I don't want to scare you but I have a knife and a gun and I don't want to die alone.' "

A sheriff's deputy gave Jones a copy of the restraining order at his home a few hours after Genelle's body was found, the Daily Republic reported.


Praying for better year

Jones said on a Web page devoted to his haircutting that he worked at Crowns Barber Shop in Fairfield. Friday afternoon, police had the shop blocked off with yellow crime-scene tape.

On his Web page, Jones posted photographs of co-workers and customers who had just received trims. His most recent message, posted last month, said, "Starting it out with a smile, praying for a better 2013."

[Oh, isn’t that just so heart-warming? Way to finish the racial murder story on an upbeat note, Chronicle!]

Wow,idk where to start! I am a close friend of Genelle's mother, as well as other family members and friends, and I was standing next to her mother when the coroner came to the door and broke the news to her. Genelle's mom made some mistakes,and Genelle was in foster care for a few months,but her mom never missed one appointment,phone call,letter,or visit, and really straightened up and wasnt that far away from getting her back. I read a letter Genelle wrote,more like a diary entry, all about how much she missed home and how she couldnt wait to almost be back and how proud of her mom she was and that she forgave her and loved her very much. Genelle was not unwanted at all. And the reason her mom isnt all over the media with comments is because she is grief struck,to say the least, and isnt ready to get her 15min of fame and exploit her daughters tradgedy by being on tv an in the papers, the other members of her so-called family are people she hardly knew or so her and said things that werent true and had no place doing so. And as for the racism crap, seriously, any person who would do this to any child regardless of ethnicity,is a monster and should be considered in-human period, you are trying to tell me youve never heard of other awful stories similiar to this one where the man wasnt black and the girl wasnt white???? come on wake up,sadly there are tons of these stories,and i dont know the exact statistics of what everybodies skin colors are in these circumstances,but who the hell even cares,they are all horrible and sick things that disgusting people did,what else matters other than innocent wonderful lives have been lost.... who are you to judge and write a blog like this, you need to take some personal time and sort through your thoughts some more or something,change an get some help

Dear Ms. Price,

“Genelle's mom made some mistakes,and Genelle was in foster care for a few months,but her mom never missed one appointment,phone call,letter,or visit, and really straightened up and wasnt that far away from getting her back.”

What sort of “mistakes”?

I made a mistake yesterday morning. I spilled change out of my pocket when I picked up my pants, getting dressed to take my son to school. Instead of leaving it on the floor, I picked up change, causing us to miss the city bus, and then having to walk to school late. But child welfare hasn’t come yet to take him away from me for once getting him to school late.

So, did child welfare take Genelle away from her mom for going to school late one day?

I didn’t think so.

So, did her parents take care of her? No, they didn’t. So, I didn’t misrepresent a damned thing, but you did.

“And as for the racism crap, seriously, any person who would do this to any child regardless of ethnicity,is a monster and should be considered in-human period, you are trying to tell me youve never heard of other awful stories similiar to this one where the man wasnt black and the girl wasnt white???? come on wake up,sadly there are tons of these stories,and i dont know the exact statistics of what everybodies skin colors are in these circumstances,but who the hell even cares,…”

Actually, although there are five times as many white as black “residents” in this country, I have never heard of a story of a white man who kidnapped, raped, and murdered a black child. And yet, I hear of and report on black men who kidnap, rape, and murder white females all the time. And millions of people do care. Why report at all, if you’re not going to report accurately?

What do you have against the truth?

You don’t know the statistics, but I do. Where do you get off, thinking that your being an ignoramus and dishonest (see above) makes you morally superior to someone who has spent thousands of hours investigating and reporting on a topic?

“who are you to judge and write a blog like this, you need to take some personal time and sort through your thoughts some more or something,change an get some help”

Do you write to MSM “reporters” who cover up black-on-white crime, denouncing them? I didn’t think so. Why not? Are you too cowardly, too lazy, too stupid, too ignorant, or too hypocritical?

Unlike you, I sort through my thoughts every day … on this blog.

And why did you bombard me with the same comment four times? Oh, yeah, at least one time was because you’d written your full name, and sought to backtrack and post using only your first name. But four times? And why, if you were willing to keep on copying and pasting, and hitting the “send” button so many times, could you not be bothered to re-write your moronic, despicable comment in a semblance of proper English? But of course, you think it’s fit and proper for you to lecture me.

I would slice and dice this nigger scum, kill everybody who frequented that barber shop, kill his neighbors, kill his family, and kill everybody who crossed paths with this piece of shit and weren't intelligent enough to see he was a criminal just waiting to strike.
