In a very brief hearing, 21-year-old Jake Patterson waived his right to a preliminary hearing for the kidnapping of Jayme Closs and the murder of her parents. Barron County judge James Babler accepted that waiver and bound Patterson over for trial on two counts of homicide, one count of kidnapping, and one count of armed burglary. Police say Patterson confessed to the attack and the kidnapping at the time of his arrest. He will be formally charged with the crimes at a hearing in March.
