That's really to bad. It seems to be industry standard that child actor or actress are intro ducted to drug and substance use or abuse. The industry had a lot to do with it, I think.

Later teens[edit]
Jones believed she had been typecast. She enrolled in Westchester High School and returned to a life outside the entertainment industry.

Jones' parents had initiated a bitter divorce in 1965 and carried on a long feud over custody of Anissa and her younger brother, Paul. In 1973, custody of both children was awarded to their father, but he died of heart disease shortly thereafter. While her brother went to live with their mother, Jones moved in with a friend and began skipping school. Her mother reported Jones to the police as a runaway. She was arrested and sent to juvenile hall, spending many months in state custody, after which she was allowed to live with her mother. However, Jones soon began shoplifting and taking drugs. In 1975, she dropped out of high school altogether and briefly worked at Winchell's Donut shop in Playa Del Rey. She reportedly felt embarrassed whenever customers recognized who she was.

On her 18th birthday, in March 1976, Jones gained control of saved earnings from her work in Family Affair, about $180,000 (equal to $746,000 today) as well as an undetermined amount of U.S. Savings Bonds, both of which had been held for her in a trust fund. Jones and her brother Paul then rented an apartment together, not far from their mother.

Death[edit]
Shortly before noon on August 28, 1976, after partying all night in the beach town of Oceanside, California, with her new boyfriend Allan "Butch" Koven and others, Jones was found dead in a bedroom of a house belonging to the father of a 14-year-old friend named Helen Hennessy.[3]:28 The coroner's report listed her death as a drug overdose, later ruling it accidental:[4] cocaine, PCP, Quaaludes, and Seconal were found in her body during an autopsy toxicology examination. The police report also indicated a small vial of blue liquid next to Jones at the scene, which was never identified. The coroner who examined Jones reported she died from one of the most severe drug overdoses he had ever seen. Jones was 18 years old[3]:28 and was preceded in death by her father, John Paul Jones, Sr., of heart failure on March 7, 1974.

Jones had no funeral. She was cremated and her ashes were scattered over the Pacific Ocean.[4] She left $63,000 in cash and more than $100,000 in savings bonds when she died.

Six days after Jones' death, Dr. Don Carlos Moshos was arrested and charged with illegally prescribing Seconal to Jones, among other drugs-for-profit charges from a concurrent undercover criminal investigation. An envelope with Moshos's business address was present at the scene, specifying a drug found in Anissa's toxicology report (Seconal), its dosage (1.5 gr.), quantity (50), and the recipient's last name (Jones). Moshos was charged with eleven charges, including second-degree murder;[5] while awaiting trial, Moshos died of cancer by acute viral hepatitis on December 28, 1976, exactly four months after Jones.[6] Although the murder charges were dropped before his death, Moshos's estate was sued by Jones' surviving family for $400,000; in July 1979, the verdict found him 30% liable and Jones 70% responsible for her death, and the resulting judgment was reduced to $79,500.

On March 15, 1984, Jones' brother Paul also died of a drug overdose. He was 24 years old.[3]:29 On January 14, 2012, their mother, Mary Paula Tweel, died in Detroit, Michigan. There were no surviving heirs to the family name.

That's so sad to read.
