Found Alive WI - Jayme Closs, 13, Barron, missing after parents found shot, 15 Oct 2018 *Arrest* #33

What was it, 9 minutes after they found her, they found him? I'm assuming that the dog walker called 911. How far away from him was she when she found the lady who saved her?

If he thought he had her "broken" - or he thought she was secured, he could have been out shopping or at work, even. If Jayme knew where he was, then easy enough to just go pick him up.

That said, I really hope she whacked him over the head with a two by four and knocked him out before she made her escape.

IIRC there are more than a few of us who need to go get our hat to eat. Happily!

That hat is tasting pretty darn fine right about now.

That is incredibly quick!

Small town, credible sighting, yes you'd get fast response!

 

[MyBelle]

So very odd that it's reported she's found, than not found, than found. Hmmmm

Quite a coincidence. I'm looking forward to the presser!

If true, his level of confidence could possibly come from two different firearms being used in that house.

There’s other ways of course, but that’s my guess.

I wonder if we will finally find out that they actually did go further than 5 feet inside the house?!

My biggest hope just a couple months ago, was that Jayme’s body would be discovered by hunters in the near future.

Her being alive, wasn’t even a consideration.

This being solved, seemed completely hopeless. I figured that it would be an enduring mystery.

I’m still pretty stunned at all of this.

Time for some answers, and justice for Jayme.

I was looking for you ilovechili, ISN"T IT GRAND!! WOO HOO!

I heard it I think as it was breaking, laid down for a nap and my mom texted and then I had to call my adult child, etc. By the time I got on here, what was a quiet site all day was exploding So very happy to have this outcome--not that it takes away from the tragedy of her parents--but she is not lost but is alive! One could not ask for a better outcome.

She was found about 66 miles away from Barron. This case, somewhat, makes me think of Shawn Hornbeck because after he was found he talked about how he knew everyone was looking for him etc., although he did not out himself for some time and only under certain circumstances after years of captivity. Speculation only, but I would imagine that Gordon had missing information on Jayme posted about town and or on the news that she perhaps was aware of and therefore made the "run for it" at first opportunity. Like I said, speculation only. 13 years old is so darn young and I have no idea of her maturity level but she "went for it" and took that chance to save herself. Prayers for her, her family and her parents. I never expected this outcome of this case and am so very happy for her and her family and am beyond delighted that they have the suspect in custody.

The only thing I wish I could see is Jayme and Molly reunited. That will be a beautiful shining moment.

This will hit all the news programs.
Front pages round the world: I am waiting!!!
Mollie will not let Jamye out of her site.

That is incredibly quick!

I believe it is because she escaped and a woman happened to be walking her dog and had a cell phone and called 911 - a miracle of Jaymes making IMO

I usually would agree but I don't think there are enough MODS to keep up with that request. And they usually don't do that until the news stops calling a victim by name in connection with the suspect's charges/court case. Unfortunately for Jayme her case is as well known as Elizabeth Smart now. I don't see her being able to be anonymous or a Jane Doe in court.

My heart weeps for her. I hope she will find a way to heal, despite the fact that the world is about to know all the horrible details of what she has endured. I pray she will be granted all the strength she needs for the difficult days ahead. Simple comforts of being with her surviving family members and her dog Molly may help.

MOO.

Totally agree with you. This is one strong child to go through 3 months of he'll and still have the Moxie to escape.

I couldn't be happier. I checked the thread every once in a while, but I was so sure she was gone that it hurt to much to read and hope. SO very happy she'll soon be back safely with her family.

 

[NewMama]

Absolutely wonderful news!! My eyes LIT UP at the alert! Thank you, Kind Neighbor, for helping Jayme! Dang it - I LOVE good news on here!!!!

How far from Barron, thanks?

My feelings as well. I was thinking: maybe in Spring then. This is MUCH better!

I hope Jayme's Grampa is ok tonight. He has had to run the emotional gamut today. At first the rumor. Then finding out that rumor wasn't true. Then to find out she is alive! Every time I think about him saying he would go and get her if she needed him to I cry. Now he can mourn his daughter properly. Prayers for Grampa!

OMG. I just woke up and saw it on FB. I left here on page 4 earlier today. About what page did she get found so I can go back? Wow!

Gordon Camp is another correctional institution or program. Hold for Gordon Camp with no bond means an inmate is waiting at that site to go to his prison program called Gordon Camp. It doesn't mean he has no bond because he is a vicious murderer and kidnapper.

hold your head high jayme, you have shown more strength than most grown women could have.

I have probably 15 news apps on my phone.

When I got the first alert, I was like “no, you’ve made a huge mistake.”

By the fourth or fifth, I started to believe that it was true.
