Storm clouds gathered and rain fell Thursday as the world learned that Jake Wilson, the autistic teen missing since April, is likely dead. Human remains found Tuesday at Wolf Creek were consistent with the 16-year-old, Police Chief Chris Brecher and Sheriff Tony Thompson said during a press conference inside the La Porte City fire station. “We have been able to confirm with the medical examiner’s office that we have found human remains in and around Wolf Creek at this time … We are confident that we are on the right path. We have had confirmation that what has been found is consistent with what we are looking for, and it’s also been consistent with one of the areas we were expecting to find items,” Brecher said.
