Just adding to the list of family's activities. Jacob played hockey and I believe he and his Dad liked to go fishing. Here's something I've been trying to ascertain for a while, if anyone can help - been trying to find out the name of the hockey club/group Jacob was involved with. Evidently he played hockey, soccer, baseball and football.
Below are a few excerpts from a website called "Lighting Their Way Home." All of this information is part of the narrative that is Jacob's story.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"It took the police 6 minutes to reach the Wetterlings home, where they were then taken back to the site of Jacobs abduction."
" It took no time at all before the FBI was alerted to Jacobs case and called in. It turned out that FBI agent Al Cotelo was stationed in St. Cloud, and his son was a classmate of Jacobs. Agent Cotelo called Al Garber, supervisor of the FBIs Violent Crime Squad in Minneapolis, 30 minutes after Jacob had been abducted, and let him know about the circumstances surrounding Jacobs disappearance."
"All the resources that could be accessed to aid in the search for Jacob were. At the height of the investigation, there were 70 investigators working on Jacobs case full time. Every morning the team would begin with a briefing, then the phones would start ringing endlessly as tips and information poured in."
"Unfortunately, despite the man power devoted solely to finding Jacob, there was a complete lack of evidence. The crime scene yielded no physical evidence, despite having every inch covered with a fine toothed comb. There were no witnesses to the abduction besides Trevor and Aaron, and even then, they were terrified, and the abductor wore a mask, which prevented them from getting a good look at the man. The abduction occurred in an isolated area where a car wouldnt attract attention, creating a shaky beginning to a difficult case"
"Jerry has expressed that he believes his son may have been stalked for several days before his abduction."
