THUNDER BAY - A judge has ruled that the evidence shows beyond a reasonable doubt that not only did Jonathan Yellowhead assault 17-year-old Braiden Jacob but that those actions also resulted in his death in December 2018.

The court heard that on the evening of Dec. 5, 2018, Jacob and Yellowhead were consuming alcohol with several other individuals in an Arthur Street hotel room. Everyone was evicted from the hotel after a window was broken and Jacob and Yellowhead were recorded on video surveillance leaving together. Investigators with the Thunder Bay Police Service testified that the missing person case was upgraded to a major case due to Jacob’s age and because he was not from the city.

According to DNA analysis, the blood found on the doorframe and on the backpack was matched to a DNA profile belonging to Jacob. “The defense theories do not stand up to scrutiny,” she said. “The Thunder Bay Police Service at the outset believed there may have been more than one person involved in the disappearance and later the death of Mr. Jacob. The police followed up inquires by obtaining video surveillance footage.”
