Jaacob Van Winkle turned to alcohol and drugs at an early age. His first documented run-in with police was at the age of 16. For the rest of his free days, Jaacob was in and out or prison. Some of his crimes were despicable but it seems as though his sentences were light and he was let out to create more misery. All of this led to Van Winkle's final crime which was the murder of a mother, 2 of her children and the sexual assault of a third child.
Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the crimes of Jaacob Van Winkle. This is a guy that seemingly gave nothing back to society and felt as though he could do whatever he wanted with little to no repercussions. His final crime was shocking, ended three lives and wrecked the lives of countless people.
