Taig Savage

SOLVED
Update 2025

The accused charged with second-degree murder in the beating death of a young man outside Pen-Hi has elected to have a preliminary hearing.

Isaac Hayse Jack, now 22, has been charged with second-degree murder in the death of Taig Savage, who was killed in the early morning hours of September 5, 2021. Savage's body was found in a field outside the high school.

Last April, Jack and three youths (two males and one female), who can't be identified under provisions of the Youth Justice Act, were all charged in relation to Savage’s violent death.

Jack was 18 at the time Savage was killed and will be the only one facing trial as an adult.

Pre-update

Penticton, British Columbia — It was just before 6 a.m. on Sunday, September 5, 2021, when Penticton RCMP were called to help BC Emergency Health Services (BCEHS) with an unresponsive person down at the sports field at Penticton Secondary.

While no arrests have been made to date, a fulsome investigation into this matter continues including a detailed forensic and technological investigation of evidence that has been gathered, said Penticton RCMP in a release.

"Penticton and area community support has been significant with continued additional avenues of investigation being examined and followed up on," said Const. James Grandy.

The 22-year-old's mom Tracey Savage is longing for justice.

She took to Facebook earlier in August to say how much she misses Taig.

"Taig, not a day or an hour goes by that I don't catch myself thinking you are here and in my life. Then reality hits. Remember Taig, Justice," she wrote.

Taig is described as kind, generous and loyal.

If you witnessed this incident, or have any other information, you're asked to call the Penticton RCMP at 250-492-4300.
