Simon Jones
Simon Jones lives in Odyssey and is the father of Emily and Barrett Jones. He serves the town as a judge, presiding over cases at the local courthouse, and his position is one he holds through election. Emily's detective work and ambitions often bring the two together, and Simon is a steady source of guidance for her. He once hoped she might follow him into law, but he insists she must chase her own dreams rather than his. His love does not depend on her achievements, and he tells her so plainly. He is warm and wise at home as well, whether he is cooking chili for the family or helping Emily see that honesty and integrity matter more than recognition.
