7/16/24 Update: Jacobs bonded out of jail Tuesday evening after having been arrested July 10 on suspicion of second-degree assault & obstructing a peace officer. About an hour & a half after his release, he was arrested after he was discovered to have gone to David Farr’s house, who is the alleged victim. Showing up at the house violated the mandatory protection order & his bond. “Mr. Jacobs has shown he can not comply, and will not comply, with this court’s orders,” Deputy District Attorney Wendy Owens stated during Wednesday’s hearing. “That is a matter of community safety, that is a matter of public safety. It is a matter of flagrant disregard for this court’s orders.” “The court can’t help but see there’s been a violation of bond conditions,” Magistrate Claire Colette LeBeau stated Wednesday. “It was violated as soon as he bonded out of custody.” Jacobs has requested to move to Nebraska to reside with his mother, but LeBeau said that will be addressed at his next hearing when she hears input from the victim. Jacobs’ public defender, Daniel Zettler, said his client intends to raise a self-defense argument & assert that he was assaulted & defended himself. LeBeau originally set bond in that case at $10K cash surety & ordered him to comply with the protection order against Farr. After Wednesday’s early morning arrest, LeBeau revoked that bond & set it at $3K cash only. A preliminary hearing & bond hearing is slated for 8/7/24. Jacobs also appeared in court Wednesday, 7/17/24 for the formal filing of charges in the July 9 assault case. He is charged with first-degree assault, a Class 3 felony; second-degree assault, a Class 4 felony; four counts of crime of violence – each a sentence enhancer; and obstructing a peace officer, a Class 2 misdemeanor. LeBeau set bond at $1K cash surety for violating the protection order & reminded Jacobs that he is prohibited from any contact with Farr. He returns for filing of charges in that case on 7/23/24.
7/23/24 Update: Next preliminary & bond hearing on 8/7/24 @ 1:30pm.
