People may act differently shortly after committing a violent act. You may have observed such behaviors and not realized it at the time. We are asking you to think back to earlier this week and let us know if you’ve noticed any of the following:

Changes in Routine:

They will miss work. The absence will be sudden and unplanned. They
may either be a “no show” or they may offer a reasonable excuse such
as illness, death in the family, car trouble, etc.


They may miss scheduled appointments. These appointments or
commitments may include medical appointments, a regular
responsibility to a friend or family member, like caring for an elderly
relative.

They may suddenly leave town, either with no explanation or with some
reasonable explanation.

Changes in Normal Behavior:

 There may be changes in their usual consumption of alcohol and/or
drugs. This could be an increase or a decrease in drinking or drug use.

They may make a change in how they look or make it difficult to identify
them, such as changing the look of their vehicle or selling or getting rid
of their vehicle.

They may pay too much or too little attention to the progress of this
investigation that seems out of the ordinary. They may try to find new
information about the investigation or, they may quickly turn off the
news and social media or try to redirect conversations about the victims
or their families.

They may be anxious, nervous, or irritable. They may withdraw from
normal activities.

In addition, we are seeking information about the victims, Denise and James Closs. We are hopeful to learn more about the Closs family to help bring Jayme home. If you spent time with members of the Closs family recently, or if you have Ever had a misunderstanding with members of the Closs family, or know someone who has, please call the tipline.
