Jayme Closs was able to escape from her captor after being held for 88 days. Now the company that was offering reward money for her return is going to donate it to Closs.
“We are overjoyed at the news of Jayme’s safe return,” said Jim Snee with Hormel Foods. “Her bravery and strength have truly inspired our team members around the world.”
Hormel is the parent company of Jennie-O Turkey Store. Closs’s parents were employed by Jennie-O before they were killed by Jayme’s abductor.
“While we are still mourning the loss of longtime family members Jim and Denise, we are so thankful for Jayme’s brave escape and that she is back in Barron,” said Steve Lykken of Jennie-O Turkey Store.
The company hopes the money can be put into a trust to help Jayme now and into the future.
