After speaking to Carson ISP detectives arrested him on charges of obstruction of justice and false informing. He is being held in the Washington County Jail currently on a $4,000 cash bond.
Officers then obtained a search warrant to search property located at 4031 Wheeler Hollow Road in Vallonia.
While searching the property, officers located a body in a duffel style bag stuffed under an abandoned mobile home. The body was later identified to be Jacob.
An autopsy showed no signs of trauma to Jacob's body. Officials are currently waiting for the results of toxicology reports.
