CLARKSVILLE, TENN. — Jeremy Menear’s voice was heavy with emotion as he spoke before a jury Monday afternoon about the phone calls he received from his friend Jonathan Downing on Sept. 8, 2009, shortly after Downing shot his wife multiple times.

Menear was the first witness in the trial of Jonathan Clyde Downing, 35, who is charged with first-degree murder of his wife, 25-year-old Sena Marie Downing, who was shot nine to 10 times inside the couples’ 1705 Autumnwood Blvd. home.

Sena was found dead by police in the garage of the couple’s 1705 Autumnwood Blvd. home on Sept. 8, 2009. Following an argument, Downing allegedly shot his wife and fled, according to a previous report. The couple had reported domestic problems prior to the homicide.

  2. Falling on deaf ears is an old story but they are still not listening. There is so much information discovered over the last 40 years that none of this should be happening.
