Finally, in October 2015, Danny James Heinrich, who had already been ‘a person of interest,’ would end up being a match to the case of Jared Scheierl. Because of this, detectives would investigate further, which led them to finding child pornography at his home, which in turn, allowed them to arrest him. This also led to police questionning him in the case of Jacob. Heinrich agreed to confess under a plea deal that he wouldn’t face murder charges if he lead them to Jacob’s body, which his family desperately wanted. But he would still be charged and sentenced to 20-years in prison for his crimes. And while this may not have felt like a fair sentencing after he had taken the life of their son, Jacob’s parents were finally able to bring their son home and lay him to rest.
