Jones told the authorities that she does not remember how she was locked out of her own home, but that she recalls being upset about her boyfriend not celebrating her new job at a sandwich restaurant franchise with her. As per report, the woman also drank two alcoholic beverages and two rum-infused mixed drinks on the night of the incident.

The suspect is being held on a $15,000 (almost P760,000) bond. If Jones is released on bond, she is still prohibited from making contact with her alleged victim. Cha Lino/JB
