“He thought that he could own me, but he was wrong,” Jayme said in her statement. “I was smarter. I watched his routine and I took back my freedom.”

She added: “Jake Patterson will never have any power over me.”

Jayme and her relatives made it clear they never wanted Mr. Patterson to leave prison alive.

“He stole my parents from me. He stole almost everything I love from me,” Jayme said in her statement. “For 88 days he tried to steal me, and he didn’t care who he hurt or who he killed to do that. He should stay locked up forever.”

[Her abduction set off an intense manhunt. But Jayme herself ended up breaking the case.]

Mr. Patterson, 21, who pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree intentional homicide and to kidnapping, had faced a mandatory life sentence. But during the hearing Friday afternoon, it was up to Judge Babler to decide whether Mr. Patterson would ever have an opportunity for parole.

The case terrified residents and mystified the police for months, and ended only when Jayme staged an escape after almost three months in captivity.

Mr. Patterson, who was once voted “most quiet” in high school, later told investigators that he had first seen Jayme boarding a school bus while he was on his way to his job in a cheese factory.

He said “he knew that was the girl he was going to take,” according to a police report of his confession.
