Information previously released on January 8, 2019:
On December 17, 2018, about 6:15 PM Aurora Police Officers responded to a call of a physical family disturbance in the 10600 block of East Jewell Avenue at the Willowick Apartments.
On December 26, 2018, LeBrea Jackson (DOB: 03/06/1995), was reported missing to the Aurora Police Department by family members.
Since then, investigators have been tirelessly investigating her disappearance, and working with her family.
On January 7, 2019, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) issued the following Press Release:
“(January 7, 2019—CBI—Pueblo)—The Las Animas County Sheriff’s Office (LACSO), with assistance from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI), is investigating human remains located near the town of Aguilar on January 6, 2019.
LACSO deputies responded to the call of remains discovered by residents walking in the area near an abandoned truck stop at exit 34 on Interstate 25 just after 3:00 p.m. on Sunday.
Members of the CBI Crime Scene Response team processed the area where the human remains were located. The coroner will work to identify the remains and determine the cause of death. Further details about the remains will not be released until the autopsy is completed on Tuesday afternoon.
The town of Aguilar is located approximately 20 miles north of Trinidad.”
Today, January 8, 2019, those remains sadly have been positively identified as LeBrea Jackson. The Aurora Police Department and the Custer County Sheriff's Office (CCSO) have made notifications to her next of kin.
LeBrea Jackson’s Missing Persons case is now being investigated as a homicide by the Aurora Police Department Major Crimes Homicide Unit (MCHU). This homicide investigation remains very active. Our investigation at this point indicates there is no threat to the public. We would like to especially thank the work by our law enforcement partners at CBI, LACSO and the CCSO.
We do understand the public’s concern into this investigation. However, in the interest of bringing justice, no further information will be publicly released at this time.
We are continuing to ask for the public’s assistance. Anyone who has information can call MCHU Agent Ingui at 303-739-6067.
