The police have praised the bravery of kidnapped teen Jayme Closs for escaping her captor and breaking the 88-day abduction case.
'The will of a 13-year-old girl is what broke this case,' Sheriff Fitzgerald told '48 Hours'.
Jayme was found 'skinny and dirty but outwardly OK' on January 10 after escaping the cabin she was being held at in Eau Claire Acres, in rural Wisconsin, a development located about 70 miles away from her home.
She was taken from her home in Barron, Wisconsin on October 15, the same day her parents, James, 56, and Denise Closs, 46, were found shot dead inside.
The teen was discovered by dogwalker Jeanne Nutter who recognized her immediately and took her to a neighbors house.
The Kasiskas described the terrifying moment that Jayme arrived at their home, as they feared that her abductor could be right behind her.
'When our neighbor Jeanne came in with Jayme, she said: 'Get a gun. We don't know if he's after us,' Kasinskas said. 'So we were armed and ready in case this person showed up,' Kristin Kasiskas told Fox.

Jeanne Nutter, pictured Friday, was walking her dog near the cabin she owns with her husband Forrest when she found Jayme Closs coming out of nearby woods. Kristin and Peter Kasinskas, pictured right, say their neighbor had a skinny, dirty girl with matted hair wearing shoes several sizes too big for her feet standing next to her
The couple quickly called 911 and Jayme gave a description of the car that kidnapper Jake Patterson, 21, was driving. Police say that he was driving round hunting for Jayme after he noticed her missing.
The Kasinskas said that three officers arrived at their home, took Closs to safety and told Kristin and their kids to get away from the windows in case Patterson tried to enter. Kristin's husband was asked to stand guard outside the door on the upper floor.
FBI Special Agent Justin Tolomeo said: 'In cases like this we often need a big break, and it was Jayme herself who gave us that break.'
The suspect was arrested a short time later, near their home. Patterson is charged with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide and one count of kidnapping and is being held in jail.
So far, police have not identified a motive for the killings but say he did not appear to know or have any connection with the family.
'This is a true mystery. We believe the first time they met was the night of the incident,' said the sheriff.
Authorities are now searching through Patterson's phones and computers and the car he was driving in when arrested.

Sheriff Chris Fitzgerald said that the latest report was: 'He was sitting in his cell - lookin' at the wall, all by himself.'
Patterson's attorneys, Charles Glynn and Richard Jones, called it 'a very tragic situation'. Glynn and Jones say they're relying on 'the integrity of our judicial system' to treat him fairly.
Jayme has now been reunited with her surviving family members and has been pictured settling back into life with loved ones and flashing 'big smiles'.
Speaking to DailyMail.com on the first day that she has woken up in the safety of her family's care since her extraordinary recovery on Thursday afternoon, her aunt Jennifer Smith said: 'She had a good night's sleep. It's been just wonderful and it's just wonderful to have her back.
'God is good! He answered our prayers he certainly did and we've just been overwhelmed by everyone's support. '
'Last night, we were actually able to bring her home to Barron County. That's been the goal of mine for 88 days. And - we got to bring her home,' said Fitzgerald.
Police believe Patterson - said to have hidden the girl in the home he grew up in - killed the Wisconsin couple because he wanted to abduct their daughter. They say she was 'the only target'.
Fitzgerald say Patterson 'planned his actions and took many steps to hide his identity'. She was kept in a 'home in a remote area' of Douglas County, Fitzgerald said.
An aerial shot shows the home on Saturday with several parked vehicles outside, covered in snow in the wooded area.
A road runs nearby with other cabins dotted around the remote dwelling. It is one of the neighbor's homes Jayme was rushed to on Thursday evening after escaping and asking dogwalker Jeanne Nutter for help.
The development is made up of a small looped street called called Eau Claire Acres Circle and is about six miles east of Gordon on Highway Y.
Jake Thomas Patterson, of Gordon, Wis., has been jailed on kidnapping and homicide charges in the October killing of a Wisconsin couple and abduction of their teen daughter, Jayme Closs
Fitzgerald aid: 'Jayme was taken against her will and escaped from the residence at which she was being held in. We also don't believe at this time the suspect had any contact with the family. We do believe that Jayme was the only target.
'I can tell you that the subject planned his actions and took many proactive steps to hide his identity from law enforcement and the general public.
'It appears he concealed her from other people ... his friends.'
Fitzgerald said he doesn't know if Jayme was abused by her captor and that detectives are now interviewing her about her ordeal.
Patterson lived three doors down from the woman who called 911 to report that a missing 13-year-old Wisconsin girl had been found.
Teacher Kristin Kasinskas says she taught him middle school science but only remembers that he was quiet.
Kasinskas says she didn't see Patterson during the months that Jayme was missing.
She added: 'I don't really remember a ton about him. He seemed like a quiet kid. I don't recall anything that would have explained this, by any means.'
It comes as another neighbor of Patterson says she and her husband had problems with him siphoning gas years ago.
Daphne Ronning told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that Patterson's parents moved to Gordon about 15 years ago.
She says the parents later moved away but Patterson and his brother continued to use the home. She says she and her husband once caught them siphoning gas. She says her husband spoke with them and they didn't have any further problems.
Ronning says she didn't know Patterson was living in the house and hadn't seen Jayme around.
It has also since emerged that ownership of the remote cabin where she was apparently held was passed to a credit union soon after her abduction.
Patterson's father transferred the title of the cabin near Gordon to Superior Choice Credit Union on Oct. 23 - eight days after the attack at the Closs family's home, according to records.
Jayme was described as 'skinny and dirty but outwardly OK' by the couple who called 911 after the teenager flagged down dogwalker Jeanne Nutter in rural Wisconsin.
FBI Special Agent Justin Tolomeo said: 'In cases like this we often need a big break, and it was Jayme herself who gave us that break.'
Fitzgerald says Closs was medically cleared, is out of the hospital and is being interviewed by law enforcement.
She was taken from her home in Barron, Wisconsin on October 15, the same day her parents, James, 56, and Denise Closs, 46, were found shot dead inside.
The Barron County Sheriff's Department confirmed Jayme was found at Eau Claire Acres, a development located about 70 miles away from her home.
The teen approached a woman walking her dog, and told the stranger she had been kidnapped and that a man killed her parents.
Dogwalker Jeanne went with Jayme to her neighbors house and pounded on their door. She says Jayme had walked away from a cabin not far from her place where she had been held.
Nutter, a social worker, said: 'I went to her and she just sort of grabbed onto me and she told me who she was. She's a traumatized child. I believe she was just maybe in shock.
'I'm just happy that she's safe. I feel like it's sort of a miracle that she's still alive. I'm glad my dog wanted to go for a walk and we did and there she was. My goal was to get her to a safe place and I did. The police were amazing.'
Kristin and Peter Kasinskas say their neighbor had a skinny, dirty girl with matted hair, wearing shoes several sizes too big for her feet standing next to her. The neighbor shouted, 'This is Jayme Closs! Call 911!'
Kristin told the Today Show: 'She knocked on our door, and then actually opened our door and said call 911.

'She seemed kind of in shock and kind of timid, but she did talk to us a little bit, and she came in and sat down in our living room and was able to have a conversation with us.'
Last year, in an exclusive interview with DailyMail TV, Jennfier and her sister Sue Allard told of the family's desperate bid to keep Jayme in the nation's hearts and minds.
Today she described their success and her niece's return as, 'a miracle.'
Now, she said, the family is coming together to heal from the horrors of that October night on which Jayne's parents, Denise and James Closs were gunned down and she was taken.
Speaking of Denise, Jennifer said, 'She can rest in peace now.'
For now, she said they plan to just enjoy having Jayme back with them as the reality of her return sinks in, making an emotional promise to the girl's murdered parents to 'make her safe forever'.
Brave Jayme was pictured for the first time since her escape in a beautiful reunion with her aunt and dog just hours after she was found.
She was pictured smiling alongside her aunt Jennifer, who is now her guardian, in the image, which was taken on Friday.

Guardian Jennifer wrote on Facebook: 'Jayme had a pretty good night sleep. It was great to know she was next to me all night what a great feeling to have her home.
'As a family we will get through all of the healing process Jayme has. It will be a long road but we are family strong and we love this little girl so much!! We will do anything and everything!!
'My beloved sister Denise pooh and brother in law Jim can rest at peace and I keep assuring them Jayme is safe and we will make sure forever. We all miss them both dearly now they know there (stet) Jayme which was there (stet) whole world is home with family!! God is Good !! Bless you all!!'
Jayme's grandfather Robert Naiberg reiterated Saturday that the family had no connection with Patterson and didn't know him. He says Jayme told FBI agents that she didn't know Patterson at all.
The new photo was shared by the Facebook page 'Healing for Jayme Closs' and reads: 'Nothing makes me happier right now than seeing this photo. Seeing this reunion, seeing that smile! We love you Jayme!'
It said on Friday evening: 'Jayme's aunt sent us this photo two hours ago and has given permission for it to be reposted.'
The Facebook page also shared that a fundraiser had been set up for wellwishers to contribute to.
The teen's family have said they never gave up hope that she would be found and had 'faith everyday'.
Aunt Kelly Engelhardt told wsaw: 'We knew she was still there, we knew. We had faith everyday. Everyday.
'Disbelief, excited. I cried instantly. I fell to the bench that was sitting there when they told me. I got up and I hugged the chief deputy. The smile on his face was like, I knew. I knew it was good news, and I just cried.'
Carla Closs, another aunt, added: 'Just to see her, just to look at her, just to see that she's okay.'
Barron County Sheriff Chris Fitzgerald released additional details Friday evening and said the suspect went to great lengths to alter his physical appearance and hide evidence of the alleged murder, including shaving his head.
Police say they have recovered the shotgun used to shoot open door October 15 as well as other guns.
President of the Jennie-O Turkey Store in Barron, Steve Lykken, also said Patterson once worked at her parents' employer before quitting after a single day.
He issued a statement Friday saying Patterson was hired one day but quit the next, explaining that he was moving away from the area.
An obituary for James and Denise Closs says they worked at the turkey processing plant for 27 years.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
