Right now as it is going since you know nothing about him, he could have JJ, QQ and leading you along, or just be crazy bluffing trying to get you out since your putting up no resistance.
no. you don't raise a cbet w TPTK just to see where you stand. i think that's flawed logic. you call that seeing where you stand, i call that building the pot when you have no idea if you're beat. that doesn't even mention the fact that the only hand that's going to continue are hands that have you beat, so you're turning your hand into a bluff, which is completely unnecessary in position with TPTK.
i probably don't call the raise PF, and this hand is an excellent example of why. this is THE BEST CASE SCENARIO (barring of course an AQx flop but you can flop top two w just about any two cards) w AQo and you're still in a sticky situation and not comfortable playing w a big pot. as played i'm seriously considering raising the turn as a bluff because he's shown weakness/fear of the second jack by betting half the pot. in the end, i'm probably not making that play because many micro players still call raises even when they're scare betting (i.e. KK may be scared of that second jack, but if their half-pot bet gets raised they're still usually continuing). just a thought though.
all in all i definitely wouldn't say you "butchered the hand"
