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 claimed instead that the firing was retaliation for refusing to manipulate the dashboard's data and filed a whistleblower complaint with the Florida Commission on Human Relations. In May 2022, Florida's [[Office of Inspector General (United States)|Office of Inspector General]] exonerated the state health officials, finding her allegations against the DOH to be unsubstantiated or unfounded. Jones later posted a forgery of the FCHR's letter dismissing her whistleblower complaint on social media and stated that the agency had validated her claims.

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.

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.
