Manhunt subject Joseph Jakubowski was taken into custody early Friday in Vernon County, according to a tweet by the Beloit police department.

......................................

Investigators have said Jakubowski mailed a 161-page manifesto to President Donald Trump that contains extensive, rambling screeds against the government and religion. While there are no specific targets listed, he does suggest he’s willing to carry out violent acts. Officials have said Jakubowski doesn’t affiliate himself with any particular political party in the manifesto.

He tells the judge that he wants a chance to prove to the court and society that he could be a “peaceful and trouble-free citizen.” He said to the judge, "If in your mercy you could please give me my freedom with a rope to hang myself, and I will prove to you and the DA, I will use that same rope to save myself.”

He said all he was asking for was help and treatment so this “never happens again.”

He wrote another letter in 2011 asking Rock County Judge Michael Fitzpatrick to amend his domestic violence intervention program order, saying he could not complete it with his work schedule as a construction worker.
He claimed he had not been in any trouble and had turned his life around. That request was denied.

Court records show Jakubowski has faced more than 55 charges since he wrote the letter in 2011, most of them traffic-related.
