Yeah. Reading the log again, it doesn’t look like the dispatcher mentioned a possible suicide.
Not seeing a gun immediately doesn't mean it isn't there. It could have ended up under something, including his body. It wouldn't be until they checked all around and eventually moved the body - after forensic mapping and photographs - before they could be certain that there was no gun and make a determination that it wasn't a suicide. But there were other priorities ahead of determining suicide versus homicide. Namely that they knew there was another member of the household, a child, that potentially was there at the time of the incident that is unaccounted for. It wouldn't be until even later that law enforcement could know with any certainty that Jayme was, in fact, there at the time of the homicides.
I feel the exact same way Mountain Kat. And it's not a good feeling.
Right. Right there, why did he go to the door? I try to tell myself , don't get stuck there- move on with it. I guess I'm trying to figure out did he know this person, was it a stranger, did he hear something, was there a noise, knock ...... ?
I just don't understand why LE did not include the time period before the crime took place to ask for information from anyone who was driving by at the time. Why 12:30 when he could have been spotted 10 or 15 minutes before arriving at the house? Wouldn't they want information about seeing a vehicle or something strange when he was on the way to the house?It seems as if most people are assuming the perp took Hwy 8 most likely to the west, away from Barron which is a distinct possibility. But you have to realize there are roads at least every mile (some are even a half mile or quarter mile apart) that will take you north/south as opposed to east/west. Some are paved and some dirt. Two things about those roads. They would be extremely desolate that time of night and most of the houses sit quite a ways off the road (think farms) so security cameras would provide a very poor image at best. If it were me, having been born and raised in the area, I would get on Hwy 8, probably heading west just long enough to take a road going north/south. When the 911 call was made there is a very good chance LE could have been coming from the West as well as the East but most likely most came from the east. It used to be, a long time ago, in the late 70s, Hwy 8 had all kinds of speed/radar traps. Ask me how I know.But again, I would get off Hwy 8 and onto the back roads just as soon as I could. MOO
TV reports? They get a lot wrong. If all our conjecture were stated as fact, we’d be in big trouble.
I absolutely agree. If James was dead when the responding officers first arrived, which appears to be the case, they may have checked his vitals but wouldn’t have moved his body.
I am not sure if you are on a laptop or desktop or if you use chrome, but there is a chrome extension that auto saves what you type. Disclaimer: I have not used it so I can't say how well it works, just sharing it for those who may want to try it.

I think that it's a fact that we do not know where he was all day or what his work hours were. That's all I know. JmoBBM.
Just a heads up Steelslady, I think you might be getting "shut down" on that speculation because Tricia previously warned us not to discuss it:
AMBER ALERT - WI - Jayme Closs, 13, Barron, missing after parents found shot, 15 Oct 2018 *endangered* #10
This warning about football is no longer at the beginning of the thread but it might still stand. You might want to tread carefully (not trying to shut you down nor tell you what to post about, just trying to help).
