Emergency crews were dispatched at approximately 2:52 a.m. after hotel staff discovered an unresponsive woman on the 14th floor, following a guest’s report that she appeared to be intoxicated and lying on the ground.^{3 4} Paramedics attempted life‑saving measures but pronounced her dead at the scene shortly after their arrival.^{2 3}

Authorities have not yet released an official cause of death. However, early dispatch audio described the incident as a “code 3 for the overdose, color change,” according to recordings reviewed by media outlets.^{5 2} Police say there were no signs of foul play, no visible trauma, and no drug paraphernalia found at the scene.^{2 4 6}  The San Francisco Medical Examiner’s Office is conducting a full investigation.

A Troubling Year Preceded Her Death

Court records show that Victoria had been arrested multiple times in 2025, including charges related to drug possession, being under the influence of a controlled substance, obstructing a peace officer, and domestic battery.^{5 4 7}  She pleaded not guilty in the cases out of Napa County and Santa Cruz County.

Despite these struggles, friends and colleagues noted that she had maintained ties to the entertainment industry. Victoria appeared in several of her father’s projects, including Men in Black II (2002) and The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (2005), and held a small role in the TV series One Tree Hill.^{5 8 1}

In a resurfaced 2006 interview, Tommy Lee Jones praised his daughter’s talent, calling her “a good actress” who spoke “impeccable Spanish” and had earned her SAG card at a young age.⁸

Discovery at the Fairmont Hotel

It remains unclear whether Victoria was a registered guest at the Fairmont or how she accessed the 14th floor where she was found.^{2 4} A hotel guest first spotted her lying in a corridor and alerted staff, believing she may have been intoxicated.^{4 3}  Staff initiated CPR before emergency responders arrived.

San Francisco Police officers reached the hotel at approximately 3:14 a.m., met with medics, and confirmed the death of an adult female later identified by media outlets as Victoria Jones.^{1 3}

Authorities are urging anyone with information to contact the San Francisco Police Department as the investigation continues.³

Family and Legacy

Victoria was the younger of two children shared by Tommy Lee Jones and his ex‑wife, photographer Kimberlea Cloughley. She is survived by her brother, Austin Jones, 43.^{8 1}

Though she stepped away from acting in recent years, Victoria occasionally appeared alongside her father at red‑carpet events and remained a quiet presence in Hollywood circles.

Representatives for Tommy Lee Jones have not yet issued a public statement regarding her death.
