About

Jaimeet Aneja testified for the defense on Day 20 about knowing Timothy Ray Jones, Jr. as a former Intel coworker and later providing him a spare bedroom during a period following Jones's divorce.

Aneja described Jones as largely keeping to himself and said Jones expressed concerns about Facebook tracking him. He also said he had generally felt mildly uncomfortable around Jones, without identifying a specific cause.

The defense elicited that Aneja had not heard Jones say he feared his children or heard voices. Aneja said Jones regularly traveled to Mississippi to see his children, appeared devoted to them, and did not complain about being a father.

On cross-examination, questioning tested Aneja's interpretation of the Facebook-related concerns. Aneja disagreed that ordinary privacy concerns explained the behavior he had found unusual, while also acknowledging limits in his recollection of some events and timing.
