Police believe they have found the remains of Brooke Bennett, 12, of Braintree. Police say the remains were found on property on Crocker Road in Randolph near the home of Michael Jacques. Police found ground there that had been recently disturbed yesterday. Today, a search found the body there. Police say Brooke's body was recovered at 4:45 p.m.
An autopsy will be performed in Burlington to confirm it is Brooke and to try to find the cause of death. Police do call the death suspicious.
Brooke's family was notified of the discovery.
Brooke disappeared a week ago. She was last seen at a Randolph convenience store with her uncle, Michael Jacques. Police had previously called Jacques a person of interest in her disappearance and they had been searching his property in Randolph.
Late this afternoon, federal authorities also announced they will charge Jacques with kidnapping Brooke. The affidavit will not be released until the charges are filed in court Thursday morning.
Police plan to hold a press conference at 10 a.m. Thursday to update the case.
sorry about the double post, my trigger finger was twitchy
kill the bastard
Lord knows a lot of people have been disgraced by a relative, but had I a relative who went to prison for that, no way he would be near my child alone!! Unsupervised.
no need to make it painless..
oh no. I sorta knew this would end badly, but still, this is disappointing and sad news.
My guess (only a guess) is that the family sheltered the girl by not telling her about an uncle that was not part of their lives anyway.
This case sounds like something out of L&O- Special Victims Unit.
This creep and her step father were both involved according to latest reports.
Both men and women involved in the sexual initation of this child.
Damn SOB, prayers for Brooke and her family......hope the sob that did this rots in hell.............
Nully likes!
We should all send thank you letters to the 5 members of the SOCTUS that eliminated the death penalty as an option for these animals./disgusted sarc
You were very correct to post that warning!
Wow, what has happened to this country?
I meant to include “BEFORE they kill.”
Can you ping the prayer list for this poor, unfortunate girl?
Isn’t Vermont a Pedophile Asylum State?
What mother would even allow a brother who was a child rapist into her home?
I saw her on TV crying, she seemed like a pathetic dim bulb. Now her daughter is dead. I feel so sorry for her little girl.
So sad. Do you know if Vermont has the death penalty?
I read it. These monsters should not be allowed to continue polluting this world for one second longer than necessary.
That’s a great idea! May you win the lottery
This would be a good place for an O’Reilly Jihad.
