NE NE - Jason Jolkowski -19 - Omaha - 13 Jun 2001 - #4

[deadinthewater]

Jason's case always comes back to my mind, and it makes me very sad. With the traction on cases like Jennifer Kesse and the Yogurt Shop Murders (still can't believe they solved this one..), I just pray Jason's parents get some answers before they're gone.

I've long thought whoever was responsible (and I think foul play was definitely involved), was someone either Jason knew in some capacity or lived nearby. I suspect he was being watched during the days his car was in the shop and he was getting to work by other means (which I've not been able to really confirm how he got to work those days, specifically).
The fact nobody claimed to see him walking the probable routes he'd take to get to the high school parking lot (where his coworker was waiting) make me wonder if he was lured into a car or house near his own home. Maybe on the same street he lived on. I think he knew the response person, in some way.

Also, there is the alleged claim that when the Fizolis manager called the house, to ask him to cover a shift, that Jason's younger brother actually had answered the phone and pretended to be Jason until confronted. If true, I found that strange given the eventual circumstances....dies anyone know anything more about this specific tidbit?

About being someone he knew: I definitely agree. It was probably someone who had been keeping an eye on him and targeted him, and that day the perfect opportunity presented itself. About the brother pretending to be him, I read that after he realized the co-worker was genuinely very worried, he stopped pretending.

I know a certain house near the Jolkowski residence was later searched by police in relation to the disappearance, but nothing was found apparently. But it would NOT surprise me at all if the answer to his disappearance was right on his own neighborhood. As for his body, I think it was removed to a rural location, like a rural property, as many suburban and city people own old farms and such in the rural areas outside Omaha.

I believe if you look back through all the information in the thread you will find the following answers.
Jason's parents, I believe specifically his dad, was taking him to work. That was planned for that day until Jason was asked to come in early.
The brother pretending to be Jason was an odd coincidence. He didn't want anyone to know he was home alone so he pretended to be his older brother when he answered the phone.
