Cowabunga101 (talk | contribs) Undid revision 1224465535. You changed claimed to alleged (also the purportedly doesn't sound right). Neither "alleged" or "claimed" implies that she presented any evidence, but "alleged" sounds more elevated and serious. I think "claim" is more appropriate, given that her employer had valid and well-documented reasons to fire her, which she tried to deflect from by making unsubstantiated claims. As for the note - I said what I said. |

She is known for her [[COVID-19 pandemic|COVID-19]] activism in Florida, allegations against the [[Florida Department of Health]] and [[Ron DeSantis]], an unsubstantiated whistleblower complaint after being fired, and several legal issues.
In May 2020, Jones was terminated from her position managing the team that created Florida's [[ArcGIS]] COVID-19 dashboard for insubordination, including sharing the department's work online without authorization despite being repeatedly reprimanded. She
In December 2022, she signed a [[deferred prosecution agreement]] admitting guilt to unauthorized use of the state's emergency alert system on November 10, 2020, which resulted in her home being searched under warrant by state police in December 2020. The execution of the warrant with armed police, widely referred to as a [[Police raid|raid]], was due to a 2016 battery charge against Jones by the Louisiana State University police. In 2023, Jones pled [[Nolo contendere|no-contest]] to a 2017 charge of [[cyberstalking]] a former Florida State University student. She was fired from both institutions.
