His Mom Issued A Statement

Lewis’s mom issued a statement after the tragic event saying, “As the mother of Jake Lewis, I can only express my horror and grief at yesterday’s events. Although Jake no longer lived with me as a result of the structure and discipline that I attempted to place on him, I loved him dearly and he would still text me.”

Telling Him To Turn Himself In

Lewis’s mom continues, “When the Clay County Sheriff’s Office called me yesterday regarding his arrest warrant, I contacted Jake immediately and begged him to turn himself in. I would ask first for your prayers on behalf of the wounded officer and our law-enforcement community as they face danger every day.”
