Covington Police Looking for Missing Teen
Last Update: 5:12 pm Oct 1, 2010
Covington police are looking for help finding a local teenager who they are classifying as a critical missing person. 17-year-old Paige Johnson of Florence was last seen September 23rd when a friend dropped her off at 15th Street and Scott Street in Covington. Her friends and family have not heard anything from her since that day. Covington Police Captain Teal Nally says it's very unusual for Paige to be gone this long without having contact with anyone.

The Florence girl's mother said her daughter always checks in on a daily basis but has not been doing that.
Police said the situation was now critical because the leads they have followed have not checked out.
Witnesses said Johnson was dropped off in Covington by an undisclosed male, but police said he "is now being less than 100 percent forthcoming."

Re: Paige Johnson -- Missing 9/23/10
Did the witnesses say which way Paige went and which way the undisclosed male drove off? It seems like they would release more details in a case like this. Were there really multiple witnesses who saw her being dropped off, or did that story come from him saying he dropped Paige off and hasn't seen her since? Is there a logical reason she would be dropped off at that intersection, like it being close to home or being close to a friend's house? The articles discussing this case are leaving me with a lot of questions.

Re: Paige Johnson -- Missing 9/23/10
Me too....one article said she was reported missing 9/23, but the police didn't issue a public statement until October 1st, for some reason. Many questions left unanswered and facts left out of the news reports. Covington, KY is across the riverfront from Downtown Cinci, considered part of the Cin-Northern KY metro area. The Cincinnati airport lies between Covington, KY and Florence, Ky. Although Florence is not that far from Covington (about 10 miles), it wouldn't be considered close to home, if she lives in Florence as stated. If she's only 17 and has a 2 year old, my guess is Paige and the toddler live with Paige's mother.
I would think they would release this man's name and picture in case people that know him would be able to report if there were other sightings of him and/or Paige. The original report said a friend dropped her off in Covington. Now they are reporting it was an undisclosed male that dropped her off and he is now not being 100% forthcoming....so did he really take Paige to Covington to begin with.

No more news on Paige today, which is very sad. Nothing is being reported that I can find. The man that dropped her off in Covington is not cooperating and has lawyered up. And her boyfriend has lawyered up as well.
I hope she is safe and found soon.

Search continues for missing Florence teen
By Jim Hannah
October 8, 2010
COVINGTON - Investigators unleashed search dogs Friday and representatives from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children continued to look, but no one was able to find missing 17-year-old Paige Johnson.
"They are looking for Paige around the clock," Kenton Commonwealth's Attorney Rob Sanders said. "Detectives have crisscrossed Northern Kentucky and Southern Ohio."
Patrol officers have canvassed Covington's East Side neighborhood where Johnson was last seen Sept. 23. Sanders said his office has issued numerous subpoenas for records. Family members have hung hundreds of missing person posters and appeared on the cable television show "Nancy Grace" Wednesday appealing for the public's help.
Johnson's mother, Donna Johnson, has not heard from the 17-year-old mother since a male acquaintance dropped her off at about 1 a.m. at 15th and Scott streets to visit a friend.

Missing teen’s Facebook page falls silent
Posted: 10/12/2010
Last Updated: 4 hours and 35 minutes ago
COVINGTON, Ky. - Everyone involved in the Paige Johnson case is on Facebook … everyone except the missing teen herself. And police said that could be cause for concern.
While the police still have no concrete leads about what happened to the 17-year-old who disappeared nearly three weeks ago, they continue to search for her around the clock. The search has even extended to a check of her social habits on the Internet and that's where police have come up cold -- no e-mails sent; no Facebook status updates; no MySpace chats or messages.
Police consider the teenager’s lack of social network activity as a possible concern.
Family, friends and the community have been all about social networking in the search for the missing teen. They are using Facebook to reach out to friends across the country—posting information and flyers about Johnson’s disappearance to their online pages, as well as starting the group, “ Keep Paige Johnson In Our Prayers. We Will Find Her <3 .”

COVINGTON – The last person to be seen with missing 17-year-old Paige Johnson was arrested on a parole violation 11 days after the girl disappeared.
Jacob Thomas Bumpass, 22, has been at the Kenton County jail on the parole violation since Oct. 4 after investigators found what appeared to be dried blood and two latex gloves in his sink.
~Snipped~
Covington police Detective Bryan Frodge wrote in an affidavit for a search warrant that Bumpass was “not being truthful about the times and locations he was with Johnson.”
While Bumpass said he dropped Johnson off at about 1 a.m. in the area of 15th and Scott streets on Sept. 23, Frodge wrote that his mobile phone provider indicates his phone was in another location.

A series of five search warrants on file at the Kenton Circuit Court Clerk’s Office claim Bumpass changed his mobile phones in the days following Johnson’s disappearance, extensively cleaned his car and tried to run from parole officers who arrested him.
Very sad update............... It doesn't appear that Paige will come home to her family alive.

Bumpass' phone pings off a tower near Half Acre Road in Batavia at 4:18 a.m. The location is near the entrance to East Fork Lake, an Ohio State Park in Clermont County.
On Oct. 8, detectives interviewed a roommate of Bumpass' brother, Caleb.
According to court documents, the roommate told police Caleb Bumpass had extensively cleaned his car two to three days after Johnson went missing. The roommate said that he found it odd because Caleb was "a trashy person" and he had never known him to clean his car.
The roommate told police he had heard Jacob asked to borrow the vehicle, according to the affidavit. After the car was cleaned, he saw spilled red paint in the trunk area.

Missing teen 'friends' with jailed man
Social networks reveal connection
Posted: 10/15/2010
By: Jessica Noll
COVINGTON, Ky. - The last words that Paige Johnson’s big sister would read from the missing teen would be: “GIRL. I need To Talk To You IMMEDIATELY!”
To Brittany Haywood, that was just her sister being her sister. She said the Facebook message posted to her wall the night Johnson disappeared was something her sister would say casually like, “Hey, girl I need to talk…” That usually meant she had learned her boyfriend was cheating on her or she just was trying to find where big sis was.
Instead it would be the last word she would receive from her sister, who has been missing since Sept. 23, when she reported the teen missing to Covington Police.
The 20-year-old Haywood, who described her little sister as a sweet, outgoing girl, said the last time she spoke to Johnson on the phone was around midnight that night. She’s heard nothing since and that it isn’t like her sister not to call since they talk every day.

Person Of Interest Jailed, Not Speaking To Police

UPDATED: 7:03 pm EDT October 15, 2010
FLORENCE, Ky. -- It's been more than three weeks since Donna Johnson has seen her daughter, and she said the news keeps getting worse.
Paige Johnson disappeared Sept. 23, and detectives said they've found no trace of the 17-year-old anywhere.
"She wouldn't leave for almost a month and not contact her sister or any of her friends, no one at all," Donna Johnson said. "She wouldn't do that to us."
The Florence woman said each day brings more stress and pain, and one detective said in an affidavit that the evidence leaves little room for hope.
"We just miss, we miss Paige and we want her home safe, and it's just been horrible," Johnson said.

According to court documents, Bumpass gave the teen alcohol the night she disappeared and used his cell phone in areas other than where he'd told police he'd gone.
Investigators also said they found what appeared to be human blood on clothing and other objects at his Latonia home.
Police searched his cell phone records and found he'd been in the East Fork Lake State Park about 4 a.m., and investigators plan to search there Saturday for evidence.
"That information has us terrified and it's so hard to take it in," said Johnson, adding that she'd warned her daughter to stay away from Bumpass after seeing a picture of him.
East Fork Lake is one of Ohio's largest state parks, 4,870-acre East Fork offers a great diversity of recreational opportunities and natural history only 25 miles from Cincinnati. The park's terrain includes both rugged hills and open meadows. The lake itself is 2,160-acres. There are multiple hiking trails, bridle trails, campgrounds, 6 boat launch ramps.... this would be a massive area to search! My little map shows the distance between Cinci/Covington and the state park, about 25 miles. Many people from that area go boating, hunting, camping, swimming, hiking and trail riding there.
According to court documents, Bumpass gave the teen alcohol the night she disappeared and used his cell phone in areas other than where he'd told police he'd gone.
Investigators also said they found what appeared to be human blood on clothing and other objects at his Latonia home.
Police searched his cell phone records and found he'd been in the East Fork Lake State Park about 4 a.m., and investigators plan to search there Saturday for evidence.
"That information has us terrified and it's so hard to take it in," said Johnson, adding that she'd warned her daughter to stay away from Bumpass after seeing a picture of him.
East Fork Lake is one of Ohio's largest state parks, 4,870-acre East Fork offers a great diversity of recreational opportunities and natural history only 25 miles from Cincinnati. The park's terrain includes both rugged hills and open meadows. The lake itself is 2,160-acres. There are multiple hiking trails, bridle trails, campgrounds, 6 boat launch ramps.... this would be a massive area to search! My little map shows the distance between Cinci/Covington and the state park, about 25 miles. Many people from that area go boating, hunting, camping, swimming, hiking and trail riding there.

Not sure if this map worked or not. I read a post on one of the articles where someone commented "they need to search the lake". So if there is a specific area this group of friends may be familiar with, it's very possible he took Paige somewhere familiar to them at the lake and LE will find that out. God bless Paige and her family!

Re: Paige Johnson -- Missing 9/23/10
Facebook chatter reveals that the Bumpass, Johnson and Haywood had tentative plans to meet up on the evening of Sept. 22.
It also indicates that they had first planned to get together the night before.
On Sept. 21 Johnson chatted with Bumpass on Facebook. Just after 2 a.m. she posted on his wall to come and get her, her sister and her friend to “party ASAP!” He declined because, as he posted, he had a job interview the following morning and needed to get some sleep.
Haywood continued the chat, asking Bumpass if he was going to “chill with us tomorrow?” Bumpass’ post: “I’ll make an openin[g] for you!”
She did not “chill” with him the night Johnson disappeared, Haywood said.
Haywood said as far as she knew Johnson was hanging out with Bumpass on the evening of Sept. 22 and into the early-morning hours of Sept. 23 at his house. According to the affidavit for a search warrant, Bumpass, 22, gave Johnson alcohol that night.

Missing girl’s best friend: ‘Sunshine ripped out of my life’
Greer Locatell wants her friend to come home
Posted: 10/15/2010
COVINGTON, Ky. - With Paige Johnson’s disappearance a sense of urgency and sadness comes over those closest to her, especially for a girl who looks at her like a little sister lost.
If Greer Locatell could be doing anything with her best friend, she said she and Paige would be sitting around laughing right now, having a good time like they always did.
Locatell said that since the girl who was always positive and always smiling has gone missing, “the sunshine has pretty much been ripped out of my life.”
“She was like my baby sister,” said the University of Cincinnati student who met Johnson when she was 12 years old.

Search for missing teen heads to East Fork Lake

CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) - Crews are centering their search around East Fork Lake for missing teenager Paige Johnson.
Johnson was last seen nearly a month ago in Covington with Jacob Bumpass. Police have turned the search to East Fork Lake because cell phone records show that Bumpass' cell phone was near the lake the night that Johnson disappeared.
Over the weekend, Paige's friends and family searched the area around the lake but turned up nothing. Police will join the search Monday morning looking for clues of her disappearance

Search for teen mom centers on park
By Brenna R. Kelly • bkelly@nky.com • October 18, 2010
~Snipped~
Investigators have conducted a few preliminary searches of the park, including a few spots in Harsha Lake on Sunday, Jones said. The lake is about 2,100 acres and 100 feet deep in some places.
At today's meeting, officials will discuss what resources would be needed for a large-area search of the park, Jones said. If the search is given the go-ahead, it could take place later this week.
"It's more of a logistics meeting to see what's available and what we need to get in and what kind of scale we are looking at," he said.

Johnson's family searched the area around the lake over the weekend for any sign of the teen, who has a 2-year-old daughter.
Now, northern Kentucky and Clermont County authorities said they will put together an organized plan for searching the park Wednesday or Thursday.
News 5's Brian Hamrick said the plan will likely involve 50 to 80 trained searchers, plus search dogs, but police said they were not seeking volunteers.

Search set for missing girl
By Jim Hannah • jhannah@nky.com • October 19, 2010
A coordinated search for missing 17-year-old Paige Johnson of Florence will begin Wednesday at East Fork State Park in Clermont County.
Fifty to 80 people, along with dogs, will search the 10,000-acre state park for the mother of a 2-year-old girl. She went missing on Sept. 23 with no credit cards and no mobile phone.
The searchers will include Clermont County sheriff’s deputies, Covington police officers, area firefighters and search and rescue personnel from the region.
“Tomorrow we have gathered resources from the region who will be joining together to search areas of East Fork State Park,” Covington police Lt. Col. Spike Jones said. “We have had overwhelming response from area professionals wanting to assist us in this endeavor. Most of all we have had great cooperation for the Clermont County Sheriff.”

Search for missing NKY teen grows to 110 people at East Fork State Park
By Barrett J. Brunsman • bbrunsman@enquirer.com • October 20, 2010
BATAVIA TWP. - About 110 people, some with cadaver dogs and others on horseback or in all-terrain vehicles, are searching East Fork State Park for evidence that could indicate what happened to Paige Johnson, a missing 17-year-old girl from Covington who may have been the victim of foul play.
The task of the searchers, who include police, firefighters and civilian volunteers representing 30 different agencies, seems daunting because the park encompasses more than 10,000 acres spanning three Clermont County townships.
The search isn’t concentrated on any particular area, said Lt. Col. Spike Jones of the Covington Police Department. But it’s thought the body of Paige may have been dumped somewhere in the woods near a park access road.

Missing teen had tough life
By Jim Hannah
October 25, 2010
COVINGTON - When Paige Johnson went missing Sept. 23, Lisa Little wondered if the 17-year-old Florence girl may be in trouble.
The 37-year-old Little didn't want Paige to think she couldn't reach out for help because of past differences. Little once banned her own teenage daughter from hanging out with Paige because she was a "trouble maker."
Little created the "Paige You Are Safe Here" page on Facebook to reach out to the missing teen. Paige regularly used the social networking site to communicate with friends and family.
One month later, Paige still hasn't been heard from and the Facebook page has morphed into an exchange for more than 15,000 people seeking information on the teen's disappearance and remembrances of her.
Whether Paige will ever make it to a safe place, or see what her friends and others concerned about her say is very much in doubt, investigators say.
Investigators with cadaver dogs spent two days last week searching the 10,000-acre East Fork State Park in Clermont County but found no signs of a dumped body. The search concentrated on the park because Jacob Bumpass - who police said was the last person known to have seen Paige - sent a text message from the area about 4:18 a.m. on Sept. 23.
Friends and family describe Paige as a social butterfly who was always trying to lift other people's spirits despite being raised in an unstable family situation. Her father is a convicted felon, she dropped out of high school after giving birth at 15, and has no job.

Last person to see Paige to be released
By Jim Hannah
October 30, 2010
COVINGTON - The convicted felon last seen with missing 17-year-old Paige Johnson is set to be released from the Kenton County jail without any new charges filed against him.
Unless Covington police come up with some evidence that links 22-year-old Jacob Bumpass to some crime, state probation and parole documents reveal that his sanction for violating his parole on theft charges will be to complete a residential drug rehabilitation program.
• Photos: Where is Paige Johnson?
Bumpass will remain locked up until a bed opens at a Newport halfway house that offers drug treatment, probation and parole district supervisor Christie Feldman wrote in a letter to The Enquirer. Officials said they didn't know how soon that would be.
Covington police have avoided calling Bumpass a suspect, or even a person of interest, despite the fact that they have searched his Taylor Mill apartment, searched his family's cars and subpoenaed his mobile phone records.
The phone records led to several searches this month of the 10,000-acre East Fork State Park in Clermont County for the missing girl, but investigators didn't find anything. The search concentrated on the park because a text message from Bumpass' phone was sent from the area about 4:18 a.m. on Sept. 23 - the morning Paige disappeared from Northern Kentucky.
"He is the person who saw her last," said Lt. Col. Spike Jones of Covington police. "We feel as if he has information that may assist us in locating her.

When asked if there were new or promising leads, Jones said the investigation wasn't as "cold" as it may appear.
"We are receiving some decent information from some folks," Jones said. "We are just trying to connect the dots right now."
Hopefully, this is true. I'm wondering when all the tests will come back from the car, blood in the sink and the surgical gloves.

The search for a missing Northern Kentucky teenager has been temporarily side-tracked by a squabble over money. A fundraiser last week for Paige Johnson's family raised about 17-hundred dollars. But now, Johnson's family is angry with how the money has been split up.
Local 12's Joe Webb has been following the story.
What's going on is a lot of people trying to do the right thing, who don't agree on what the right thing may be. And when you start dealing with money, feelings can get hurt, tempers can get hot and the real goal can get lost in the shuffle.
Last Friday night, we told you about the fundraiser organized by Lisa Little, a family friend of Paige Johnson whose Facebook page now has 18-thousand supporters. That night, she told Local 12's Tiffany Wilson where the money would go.
Lisa Little, Family Friend: "It's going to be used for McKenzie, it's going to for her family and be whatever."
McKenzie, is Paige Johnson's two-year-old daughter. She lives with the father's mom, but after the fundraiser, which collected $1,750, plans for distributing the money changed.

Video from October 12, 2010 of reporter inside Jacob Bumpass' apartment. Jacob's mother said the red stains found on the sink were cherry kool-aid.

Bumpass has not officially been named a suspect or a person of interest. His parole violations were for possession of deadly weapons, drinking alcohol, smoking marijuana and lying to his parole officer about where he worked.
The deadly weapons were American Indian tomahawks and arrows that Bumpass displayed in his apartment, which you can see in the video. Bumpass lists his ethnicity on state correction department records as American Indian of Alaskan descent.
He also lied to his parole officer saying he worked 32 hours at Subway but actually he hadn't been working there for over a week. In the article his mother states he babysits children, hence the cherry kool-aid.
