The balloons’ messages conveyed love for James and wishes for his return. William Yoblonski said he has had a lack of sleep over the past year and his two sons have dealt with anger management issues due to their grief over James’ disappearance.

“We miss you James, and we would love to have you back,” Will Yoblonski (brother) said.

Ryan Yoblonski (brother) said James was acting “a little odd” before leaving shortly after midnight on June 12, 2023, but he figured it was just James “growing up.” Ryan said he is annoyed that James did not talk to any family members about possible plans for leaving.

“That night, I was talking to my friend on my watch using FaceTime audio until about 10:30,” Ryan said. “I was fast asleep by the time he decided to open the door and walk out the door. If I wasn’t (asleep), I probably would have been able to stop him.”
He said plays Call of Duty Mobile on his phone to help cope with his brother’s disappearance.

Circumstances of Disappearance:
James Yoblonski was reported missing around 9 a.m. on Monday, June 12, after leaving in a family vehicle. It was later found parked along the westbound lane of Highway 12, near Baraboo Bluffs. His cell phone was found across the highway, along the eastbound lanes. Sauk Co. Sheriff Chip Meister reported a handgun was missing from the family's home. The search for James lasted for about four days, and the ground search transitioned to patrol searches. Due to the dangerous terrain, law enforcement has advised the public against searching for the boy themselves.

Additional Details:
Investigators with the Sauk County Sheriff’s Office have conducted searches on several electronic devices believed to have been in James Yoblonski’s possession prior to his disappearance. In the early months of 2023 two searches were conducted using the device’s web browser regarding means of traveling out of state. One of these devices is owned by the Yoblonski family and the other is a device that was issued to James by the Baraboo School District. There were also several internet searches located of physical locations inside the State of Wisconsin. Investigators have followed up with each of these browser searches including physical searches of several areas. These follow ups have not produced any evidence that James was ever physically present at these locations after his disappearance.
