Investigators Thank Community for Support During Jakubowski Search

The Rock County Sheriff's Office and Janesville Police Department released a press release on behalf of all the agencies involved in the Jakubowski investigation thanking the community for their support.

Since the early morning hours of April 6, investigators have been working around the clock on the Jakubowski case. Since then law enforcement have received a multitude of generous donations from local businesses, community groups, and individuals in an effort to provide nourishment and refreshments to the over 150 law enforcement personnel assigned to this case.

Donations have included entire meals given by individual restaurants or grocery stores as well as food items and beverages donated by local retailers. Local families have unselfishly contributed purchased meals, gift cards, and cash donations towards feeding the investigators.

Providing the coordination and service of three meals daily for the over 150 law enforcement personnel is a daunting task that is being successfully accomplished by the members of the Southwest Emergency Preparedness Team.

Community members have sent a vast assortment of handmade cards, notes, drawings and even Easter baskets expressing their thanks to all the law enforcement personnel working on this investigation. The messages have been very heartwarming and provide a real morale boost to everyone.

In addition, officers have received words of thanks and encouragement from those they encounter while out in the community.
