In the summer of 2012 two Westland teenagers disappeared after a night out. Jacob Bernard Kudla, 18, and his friend Jourdan Michael Bobbish, 17, were reported missing on July 22, 2012. Five days later both bodies were found in an overgrown field on Detroit’s east side.

Investigators found the victims had been tortured and shot execution-style; the bodies were stripped to their undergarments. Kudla’s car, a 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier, was recovered abandoned and missing its sound system; the vehicle had been cleaned with bleach. Frederick Young and Felando Hunter were arrested and later tried for the torture and murders. Testimony at trial described the victims pleading for their lives before being killed, and in 2015 both men were convicted and given life sentences without parole.

Does anyone have information about Jacob’s last known movements in Westland or observations from the night of July 22, 2012?
