KENNEWICK, Wash. — An arrest warrant for 34-year-old Richard Jacobsen was issued by the Benton County Prosecutor’s Office on November 3 for suspicion of the second-degree murder of 34-year-old Brandy Ebanez, whose body was found in the Columbia River.
Jacobsen was taken into custody in Oregon regarding charges out of Kennewick around when he was identified as a suspect, according to KPD. He has been in the Multnomah County Jail and is awaiting extradition. His bail has been set at $1 million.
Ebanez’ body was found wrapped in plastic sheeting and a comforter. Her ankles were bound together and tied to rocks. Court documents suggest she was dead before she was in the water.
