The prosecutor doesn't want to reveal information about Elizabeth Wagner, Jake's EX because she was running for her life & had to get a new identity due to possible retaliation & she was able to get her social security number changed. According to Other Acts they stalked her & invaded her computer & social media devices & threatened to kill her family. She fled them & filed harassment & identity theft charges against Jake according to Discovery.
