Columbus Fathers Charged in Deaths of Two Young Sons

Columbus police have charged two men in separate cases involving the deaths of young boys caused by physical violence. Dioblis Williams Jr., 25, faces murder charges for the 2020 death of 2-year-old Ja’mir Jones, who died from blunt force trauma despite initial reports of drowning, with authorities issuing an arrest warrant. In a distinct case, 30-year-old Daniel Neal was arrested and charged with murder after his 3-year-old son was found dead from fatal injuries inflicted by physical force at a home on Buckeye Circle; Neal admitted to assaulting his son and was held on a $2 million bond. Both cases highlight the tragic consequences of child abuse and have prompted ongoing investigations and calls for information from the public. These incidents underline concerns about child safety and the need for vigilance in protecting vulnerable children in the community. Law enforcement continues to pursue justice in both cold and recent cases to provide closure to affected families.
