Some hoped that she was laying low until she was 18 and free of the legal system. They had been harbouring a runaway, so no one reported her missing out of fear they\u2019d get into trouble.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">In 2019, LaDawn died and Jade didn\u2019t turn up for the funeral which was a shock to family members. She hadn\u2019t messaged anyone in nearly two years. In 2020, US Marshals launched Operation Homecoming which was an initiative to find missing children across several states. They began investigating Jade\u2019s case and looked further into her last known movements.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Jade had been active on social media until March 30, 2017. Then there had been nothing from the teenager. They pieced together statements and digital evidence and discovered that Jade\u2019s mum had sent her to stay at a farm in Decorah, Iowa that belonged to James Bachmurski. LaDawn had met him online and they\u2019d briefly dated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The farm was three hours from LaDawn\u2019s home in Mallard, Iowa and set on 400 acres of land and woodland. They\u2019d decided it was a perfect place for Jade to lay low. The team could see that Jade had spoken to her mum about it on social media and that the move to the farm was temporary while LaDawn tried to get back on her feet and they could be reunited.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"image-group\"><button type=\"button\" class=\"SlideViewerButton_slide-viewer-button__BDJoG\" aria-label=\"Open image viewer\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-controls=\"image-lightbox\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-embed__0T8WX false\" data-testid=\"imageembed-37222401\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-articleid=\"37222401\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"image\">\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-container__2AIQm\">\n<figure class=\"Figure_figure__Uce4f\" style=\"--figure-aspect-ratio:1.76\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"LaDawn Colvin, left, with her daughter Jade\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"(max-width: 458px) 458px, (max-width: 615px) 615px, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37222401.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/1_LaDawn-Colvin-left-with-her-daughter-Jade.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37222401.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s458b\/1_LaDawn-Colvin-left-with-her-daughter-Jade.jpg 458w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37222401.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/1_LaDawn-Colvin-left-with-her-daughter-Jade.jpg 615w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37222401.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/1_LaDawn-Colvin-left-with-her-daughter-Jade.jpg 1200w\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"ImageCaption_caption__j7HRu\" data-testid=\"image-caption\">\n<p aria-label=\"LaDawn Colvin, left, with her daughter Jade\" class=\"ImageCaption_caption-title__ccyQU\" data-testid=\"caption-title\">LaDawn Colvin, left, with her daughter Jade<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Jade had moved there on March 23, 2017, but after a week, she stopped communicating with the family. LaDawn had gone to the farm and Bachmurski said that Jade had run away again. He\u2019d not contacted the police either because he worried about getting into trouble. The Operation Homecoming team appealed for information. Bachmurski had sold the farm in 2018 and had moved to Georgia. The house had been gutted and renovated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Investigators spoke to Bachmurski\u2019s son, Bryan, who had been a teen when Jade had arrived at the farm, and the pair had got on well straight away. He recalled her being dropped off by her mum and on March 27, he went for pizza with Jade and his dad. Bryan had pictures of them smiling together at the restaurant that had been taken by Backmurski. Jade looked happy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Bryan said his last contact with Jade was on March 30 when he was doing a night shift at Walmart. Jade was using Bachmurski\u2019s phone to message him as she struggled with reception on the farm. They exchanged a few messages and talked about calling when Bryan was on a break but then just after midnight Jade stops replying. Bryan asked, \u201cAre you OK?\u201d and got the reply, \u201cYes.\u201d Bryan said that his dad had told him that Jade had run away.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Operation Homecoming went to Georgia to question Bachmurski. He said that Jade had been doing laundry and he\u2019d gone out to run errands. When he returned, she had gone. It was a very remote property to leave on foot, but Bachmurski said there had been tyre marks on the driveway and suggested someone had picked her up.<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"image-group\"><button type=\"button\" class=\"SlideViewerButton_slide-viewer-button__BDJoG\" aria-label=\"Open image viewer\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-controls=\"image-lightbox\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-embed__0T8WX false\" data-testid=\"imageembed-37222404\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-articleid=\"37222404\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"image\">\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-container__2AIQm\">\n<figure class=\"Figure_figure__Uce4f\" style=\"--figure-aspect-ratio:1.48\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"James David Bachmurski was accused of killing 15-year-old Jade Marie Colvin some time after she arrived at Bachmurski\u2019s farm south of Decorah in late March of 2017\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"(max-width: 458px) 458px, (max-width: 615px) 615px, 1200px\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37222404.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/0_James-David-Bachmurski.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37222404.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s458b\/0_James-David-Bachmurski.jpg 458w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37222404.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/0_James-David-Bachmurski.jpg 615w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article37222404.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/0_James-David-Bachmurski.jpg 1200w\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"ImageCaption_caption__j7HRu\" data-testid=\"image-caption\">\n<p aria-label=\"James David Bachmurski was accused of killing 15-year-old Jade Marie Colvin some time after she arrived at Bachmurski\u2019s farm south of Decorah in late March of 2017\" class=\"ImageCaption_caption-title__ccyQU\" data-testid=\"caption-title\">James David Bachmurski was accused of killing 15-year-old Jade Marie Colvin some time after she arrived at Bachmurski\u2019s farm south of Decorah in late March of 2017<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">The team were suspicious and got local police involved.

It proved she was there.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Police also found deleted messages. Some were from Jade\u2019s family reaching out to Bachmurski, asking where she was. There were also the messages that confirmed Bryan\u2019s story about how he had messaged Jade while on his night shift \u2013 the pair were chatting like friends until Jade fell silent.
