Jayme Closs Found
2
Months after she went missing when her parents were killed, Jayme Closs was back in her hometown Friday after escaping her abductor and getting neighbors to call 911. The young girl was rescued Thursday walking down a road in a rural area in northwestern Wisconsin after she fled a home where law enforcement says she was kept by Jake Patterson. Closs was released from a Minnesota hospital Friday and is staying with an aunt. Patterson is scheduled to go to court Monday where he is expected to be formally charged with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide and one count of kidnapping. Authorities say they are still puzzled as to why the suspect allegedly went to Barron to kidnap Jayme from the family home, where her parents were found dead, killed with a shotgun. Both Jayme and the suspect have made initial comments to authorities. Police are now giving her time to settle into her new home before they question her again. Jayme, who was reported missing October 15, was discovered Thursday afternoon by a vacationer walking her dog. Patterson had been keeping Jayme against her will at his home. A woman who has a cabin nearby was walking along the isolated road when she saw Jayme on the cold evening, just about dusk, without a coat or gloves. She said, "I'm lost, and I don't know where I am, and I need help. I’m Jayme.” took Jayme to the closest house, the home of Kristin and Peter Kasinkas, and they called 911. The woman then took Jayme to the closest house and they called 911.

In Other News A traveler carrying a firearm boarded a flight from Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport and flew to Tokyo Narita International Airport on January 3, according to a statement from the Transportation Security Administration. "TSA has determined standard procedures were not followed and a passenger did in fact pass through a standard screening TSA checkpoint with a firearm.” The security breach came two weeks into the government shutdown, during which TSA agents have been required to work but have not received paychecks. As a result, hundreds of TSA agents from at least four major airports have called in sick. However, the TSA dismissed suggestions the government shutdown contributed to the security lapse and said a normal amount of staffers were working that day. Amid the longest government shutdown in US history, a majority say Donald Trump bears more responsibility for it than the Democrats in Congress, and the President's disapproval rating has climbed five points since last month, according to a new conducted by SSRS (a non-partisan group). Also, according to the poll, 56% oppose a wall, 39% favor it. And less than half view the situation at the border as a crisis.
