BARRON, Wis. - Jake Patterson pleaded guilty in a Wisconsin court on Wednesday to kidnapping 13-year-old Jayme Closs and murdering her parents in a case that sparked a months-long search for the girl and ended with her escape and his arrest.
Patterson, 21, who told authorities that he randomly decided to abduct Closs after watching her board a school bus, tearfully responded “guilty” to the judge’s reading of the charges of two counts of first-degree murder in the killings of James and Denise Closs and the kidnapping of Jayme, which will likely result in a life sentence.
As sheriff’s deputies escorted Patterson out of the courtroom, he turned to a news camera and said, “Bye, Jayme,” to an audible groan from one of her family members. Patterson held Jayme hostage for 88 days in his rural cabin in Gordon in Douglas County, about 112 miles northeast of Minneapolis, according to prosecutors. Patterson kept the girl locked in his room and barricaded her under his bed when he had guests, according to court documents.
