In summary, Rev Jones was at home (Houston area) late one Sunday night around midnight when 2 men knocked at the door. Supposedly, he knew one of them (19yr old male), they forced their way in, shot him 3 times-back, buttocks and back of head. They robbed him for money, jewelry and his car. They were caught 2 days later. They were originally on trial for capital murder facing the death penalty but due to insufficient evidence and jury misconduct, the 1st trial was a mis-trial. They took a plea for 20 ys, eligible for parole after 5 yrs. This was in 1993 so they both could be out by now. For the record, he DID NOT write "I wont complain". He just recorded his version of the song in 1990. the original author is Bishop William C Abney. Savor records released Rev Paul Jones CD posthumously. He was 30 years old at the time of his murder. God Bless.

The song was introduced to Paul from a rev. Richard (mr. clean white) and its been a living testimony ever since. i know cause i was there listening to it every Sunday before it was a hit.
