Following her encounter with the officials at Napa, court documents reportedly confirmed that Victoria Jones admitted to using cocaine. Napa Sheriff spokesperson, Henry Wofford, explained at the time that the arrest was made at a residence on Las Amigas Road during a welfare check.

It was during the check that Victoria seemingly confessed that she was using cocaine, after which she was booked. During her booking, officials noted that a plastic bag believed to be containing cocaine was also discovered in her jacket pocket.

The San Francisco Standard stated that Victoria also had dry blood around her nose when she made the admission. She, however, pleaded not guilty to charges of being under the influence, possessing a controlled substance, and resisting arrest.

The late 34-year-old's April arrest was just one out of the three times police made contact with her last year. First, during a stop at the Las Amigas Road residence in February, following claims of domestic violence allegedly involving Jones.

The caller claimed they were the victim and only called 911 when things looked like they were getting out of hand with Victoria. They also expressed their wish not to pursue charges against her, but to have the report and incident documented.

The second encounter was back in June, when deputies reported to the Carneros Resort and Spa in Napa, where Jones allegedly slapped a man in the face twice. According to the spokesperson, the alleged victim in the June 13th incident was the same person who made the emergency call in February.

As noted by The Blast, a female eyewitness close to the hotel where Victoria passed allegedly claimed that she was using cocaine in the company of 3 to 4 other people before her death.

The witness recalled to emergency responders that they were ushering in the new year before Victoria was found unresponsive and declared dead around 3 am on New Year's Day.

Sources claimed that the audio clips from the scene are tilting towards a conclusion that she possibly died from a drug overdose. In addition to this claim, law enforcement also reportedly found a blue tinge on her lips and fingernails.

Tommy took his daughter through the ropes of acting in Hollywood and also taught her a lesson about getting to the set very early. In an old interview that has now resurfaced, Tommy praised his daughter for her acting skills when she appeared in the film "The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada."

As reported by The Blast, he described Victoria as an impeccable talent who speaks good Spanish and has her SAG card. Tommy confessed that he contributed immensely to his daughter's Spanish-speaking skills by ensuring her childhood nurse only spoke the language to her.

Despite these sterling reviews, Tommy noted that he had to fire her one time when she refused to heed his 5 am call to arrive on set for work. However, production staff salvaged the situation just in time by making sure Victoria made it to set in time before his decision became set in stone.
