Description

On a Sunday night in October 1989, three boys were biking home along a country road in Minnesota when a masked man stepped out of the dark holding a revolver. He told two of them to run and not look back. Then he took the third. Within two months investigators had the man responsible in a room, took samples of his hair, and sent him home. He had already killed Jacob that same night. It took 27 years, a DNA match to a different crime whose statute of limitations had already expired, and a plea deal that meant he would never be charged with murder to finally bring Jacob home from the field where he had been buried since 1989.
