Jeremy Best | Bonneville County Sheriff’s Office
IDAHO FALLS — The booking photo for Jeremy Best was released by the Bonneville County Sheriff’s Office. Best is accused of killing his pregnant wife, Kali Jean Randall, and kidnapping his infant son Zeke Best.
Best was arrested Saturday morning, after a group of hunters found him naked in a sleeping bag by the side of the road. Police found the body of 10-month-old Zeke nearby.
Authorities had been searching for Best since Thursday night, when the Teton County Sheriff’s Office responded to a 911 call and found Randall had been killed and Zeke was missing.

Best, police say, took Zeke and went on the run after killing Randall. His arrest ended a 24-hour Amber Alert.
After being cleared by medical personnel, Best was taken to the Bonneville County Jail and booked for the outstanding homicide warrant out of Teton County. It is unknown how many — if any — additional charges he is facing at this time.
He will remain in custody until his arraignment, which is expected to be on Monday.
