James replied: "Well, if that's not good work, then I shall never build another yard of stonework once this mill is finished," and he kept his word. Furthermore, Teresa’s palm prints were found on the hood of James’ car, as if she sat on it. But after James was arrested, he denied that Teresa sat on the hood of his car. While the evidence against James was circumstantial, the expert testimony regarding the pubic hair changed that soon after. Michael Malone, an FBI agent and an expert in hair examination, testified that there was a high probability of the pubic hair belonging to James.

He got convicted of se*ual battery and first-degree murder after a year of Teresa McAbee's murder.

Fast forward to November 2010, when a DNA test revealed the hair didn’t belong to Jones after all; it was from Hilzendager, the murder victim. While the finding wasn’t proof of Jones’ innocence, it revealed a disturbing truth: Texas convicted and executed a man based on false evidence. “It is unbelievable that the lawyers in the General Counsel’s office failed to inform the governor that Jones was seeking DNA testing on evidence that was so pivotal to the case,” former Texas Governor and Attorney General Mark White said in a statement. “If the state is going to continue to use the death penalty, it must figure out a way to build safeguards in the system so that lapses like this don’t happen again.”

At the heart of the controversy, they said, are the words “consistent with,” as in “these hairs are consistent with” those taken from the suspect, when the more accurate phrasing should be that the hairs “could have come” from the suspect.Knight, Sam (September 14, 2006).
