Sonora Man Arrested for Attempted Murder & Kidnapping

Sonora, CA...On Friday March 10th just before 6:00 in the morning Sonora Police Department Officers and an ambulance responded to the area of Shepherd and Lyons Street, for a report of a kidnapping victim with injuries. The victim was taken to the hospital with major injuries while Tuolumne County Sheriff’s deputies were requested to take over the investigation.






Detectives from the Tuolumne County Investigations Division responded to continue the investigation. The victim told detectives she had been kidnapped and assaulted by 20-year-old Jacob Chapman of Soulsbyville, the night before. The victim told detectives she gave Chapman a ride to his home near Red Heather Drive, and upon arrival, he attacked her, striking her multiple times in the head with a flashlight. Chapman held the victim against her will and prevented her from escaping.


Chapman threatened the woman with a gun, telling her to drive to multiple locations. Chapman forced the victim to provide him with her bank account information by threatening the victim with death if she did not comply. Chapman bound the victim’s wrists and ankles with duct tape, continuously threatening her with death if she tried to escape. Chapman drove the victim to various locations, before tying her up and leaving her inside the vehicle. The victim was able to escape and flagged down a community member for help.

Detectives continued their investigation. Detectives confirmed Chapman was armed with a firearm and may have been dropped off near the bathrooms of Columbia State Park. Due to the severity of the crimes, a protective sweep of the Columbia area and state park was conducted by deputies and additional personnel while detectives recovered a stolen 9mm Smith and Wesson pistol from the vehicle which dropped Chapman off at the park. Detectives authored several warrants and searched for Chapman at multiple locations throughout the day and night.

On Saturday March 11th at about 10:30 in the evening Chapman turned himself in to the Sonora Police Department (SPD). Deputies arrested Chapman at SPD. Deputies transported Chapman to the Dambacher Detention Center (DDC) where he was booked on charges of attempted murder, kidnapping, robbery, assault with a deadly weapon, criminal threats and brandishing a firearm.

Anyone who witnessed this incident or has additional information is urged to contact the Investigations Division, Detective Hammell at 209-533-5815.

Liar in Chief

Monday morning our time at 0602 Biden had a 3 minute special report speech about the banks going down, 3 minutes, he took no questions, not one for millions of concerned people and this was people all across the globe. Jen Psaki on Twitter, "It's important to note, President Biden does nothing at 9 a.m. He is a night owl," Psaki told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Monday. "So, the fact that he is doing this at 9 a.m. anyway speaks to how vital the White House recognizes it is for him to have his voice out there."
Well Jen's a liar and here's the proof because I read this story on our " night owl" president. "CNN story from 2021 that appeared to directly contradict Psaki's claim that Biden is a "night owl." According to the article, Biden "is more of an early-to-bed type"
My dad is 87 and he said and I quote " if this idiot is a night owl it's because like me he gets up 6 or 7 times to pee" and my dad is a helluva lot smarter and active then our liar in Chief.

    😂 And to think it was a 3 min read the teleprompter speech that our President was so exhausted he couldn't even take ONE Question and that he probably needed a nap. A president who already has taken more time off at his home in Delaware then any President in History. As in a WHOPPING FORTY PERCENT OF HIS TIME ON VACATION.
    Does anyone need to wonder why OUR COUNTRY WENT FROM RUNNING ON ALL 8 CYLINDERS TO BECOMING FUBAR? For you draft dodgers like our Five Time Draft Dodging I Have Asthma Coward in Chief FUBAR = Fuked Up Beyond All Repair, what Joe has done to our Military, Borders, Economy Energy Prices, Oh Hell, ANYTHING that cost Money, Ukraine, inviting Putin to have an Incursion, stabbing Allies in the back, our Transportation, violent crime, our Energy Independence....it just goes on and on and and an embarrassing on with this idiot of a president that a bunch of easily manipulated numbskulls voted for, a senile Dementia Patient who at least a dozen times didn't even know he is the president.
    May God have Mercy on our Nation with this Bumbling Idiot being our POTUS

      Say what you want but just be thankful for the trillions of dollars on Biden's Inflation Reduction Act that our great great Great Grand Children's children's will be paying for because the Inflation part really worked like a charm just not the Reduction Part of it.
      I hate the guy but I'd take the mean tweets any day back in an instant.

        The USA as we know it won't be there for your great great grandkids. They'll probably be slaves to China because of Brandon's horrible presidency.

Looks to me like young Jacob identifies as a female. Its not her fault she committed this heinous crime. Its the fault of her parents, white supremacy and the patriatchial society who caused her to hide her identity and desires. She should be given a job in the Biden admin as a LGBTQIA mentor to women and children.
