Found Alive WI - Jayme Closs, 13, Barron, missing after parents found shot, 15 Oct 2018 *Arrest* #38

Ok, thanks. But still, they had no idea where he was at the time of the call, I thought. Didn't they have to search for him?

He drove by LE on his road, I thought...

Maybe he is happy knowing he will never have to work a job for a day or two again. I think it's hard to understand true evil like him.

I think this guy is the worst kind of creep. Glad jayme was so brave! This stopped this jerk from doing this again. He doesn’t appear to have any remorse.

 

[justwannahelp]

He told them every single detail he could. He sat in the courtroom seemingly in a good mood, polite and, and, and, I am having a hard time explaining him and what I watched of his demeanor.

Is there a link to the video of him? I missed that

 

[girlhasnoname]

That's ok. I'm sure we will find out more. Just thought maybe the Quiz team was something everyone else knows about except me!

Margaritas post #265 and mine #274 have the links on the previous page.

ETA: Corrected 'thread' to page.

He seems to be very forthcoming and proud of what he was able to accomplish. I believe it.

I believe him, too, when he says he saw her get on the bus and knew that was the girl he wanted to take. It seems that he was thinking about taking a girl BEFORE he noticed Jayme, and when he saw her, he knew she was the one. (Rather than seeing her and then deciding to take her.) He plotted this even before he had a victim, imo.

No. He said he walked in and saw a closed door and then went through each room before returning to the closed door, which was the bathroom.

How terrifying for Jayme and her Mom. I wish they could of both ran away. Or that DC could of had a gun and shot him first,

He did. But i think the previous poster was implying they may have looked for him before seeing him on their way back with Jayme in the patrol car.

 

[elektroangel]

I don't think it took long. Wasn't he in custody within ten minutes after Jayme and the dog walker got to the house? Or was that wrong? I thought that's what we first heard. But I did miss the 911 call and all the discussion.

After reading the article and rereading the complaint maybe they meant 11 minutes after they had Jayme, they as in LE, not the 911 caller.

That's what i thought i read as well?

I wonder what made the Dad think it was the police outside?

 

[MsBetsy]

Oh yes. Correct. Good point. They knew where Jayme was as well as his cabin but no one was sure of his whereabouts. 30 minutes seems really fast to capture him but kind of long to get to her I guess is what I’m feeling. Usually officers respond to a 911 call faster than 30 minutes. I’m not criticizing them as I’m sure there’s some explanation - could be they are in the nearest city areas at that time to tend to traffic type issues etc so they were all really around 20 minutes away??

I think they just didn't know where to look. They actually got lucky that they spotted the car. They were communicating over the phone and Jayme said she thought it was a red car but he had other cars he drove too. They had to run the license plate and found that it belonged to someone named Patterson. Then they had to radio for help. They caught him just as he was about to pass by his driveway. Imo

I just told my husband that he needs a loaded gun on safety in a safe in another safe to bring with him to the door whenever there’s a stir in the
night.
He told me it’s too dangerous because we have 5 kids. So i made him read the complaint today to show him how scary. He told me that if that ever happens to us that me and the kids need to climb out the windows and run to our neighbors “only 100 yards away”
I rolled my eyes and said “get a gun honey....”

Maybe Jake said something like “police open up” as he banged on the door. Not sure why he would have left that part out though

Just to clarify I meant reading the criminal complaint he told them details, not during his hearing. You should be able to find the hearing which was recorded live with a quick google search.

Apparently Patterson ordered him to get down on the ground. He saw him looking though the decorative window on the door when he asked to see his badge and Patterson shot him through it. Imo

 

[MsFacetious]

Hmmmm. Interesting. The complaint report said Jayme was in the car when the 2 patrol cars passed Jake.

I believe that is referring to when they passed him on the way to the homicide scene.

Yes. The stars really aligned that day she escaped!

Question: why did he have so many cars?? Jeanne said 8 cars on the 911 call???

 

[Zephyranth]

I'd like to know that, too.

 

[Karinna]

Anyway what a horrible situation and just that someone could be so determined to do something like that is very disturbing. We certainly never know in this life what we can be up against, and i am so glad Jayme got away from the perp.

Same conversation tonight except my response was the same as your husband's.
