What Happened to Paige Johnson? Minisode Update (Indictment & Arrest)
This is an update to our March 29, 2020 minisode. There has been an arrest made in the case. 17-year-old Paige Johnson was last seen on September 23, 2010. She had just turned 17 and was headed to her sister’s apartment. According to her mother, Donna, it sounded as if Paige said “Jason” was picking her up...when in fact, what she actually said was that “Jacob” was picking her up. Her mother knew Jason and knew that she would be safe with him...so she said okay and told her to be safe and have fun. However, the person she was actually leaving with was a 22-year-old by the name of Jacob Bumpass. Jacob Bumpass, to this day, doesn’t talk about that night. What he HAS said though, is where he dropped her off that night. He claimed that he dropped her off at 15th and Scott Street in Covington, Kentucky at around 1am. However, the authorities have indicated that his cell phone never pinged off of towers in that area. His phone DID ping at East Fork Lake (in Clermont County, Ohio) between at about 4:18am when he sent a text message from his phone. He is the very last person known to have seen Paige alive. As of March 22, 2020; Paige's remains have been identified. Can you guess where? About 1-2 miles from where Bumpass' phone pinged near East Fork State Park. Her cause of death is still under investigation.
