Travis Decker Could Be Dead Amid Monthlong Manhunt: Sheriff
- Travis Decker, wanted for first-degree murder and kidnapping, allegedly killed his three daughters near Leavenworth, Washington, with their bodies found on June 2 at Rock Island Campground.
- The search began after Decker failed to return the girls following a May 30 court-ordered visit, and DNA from blood on his abandoned truck matched his profile, but authorities have no evidence confirming if he is alive.
- Local and federal authorities, including Kittitas and Chelan County Sheriff's Offices and the U.S. Marshals, have conducted extensive searches using police dogs, volunteer teams, and technology despite limited personnel and challenging terrain.
- Officials warn Decker is armed and dangerous, may have altered his appearance, and possibly fled to Canada, urging the public to call 911 if seen and offering a reward up to $20,000 for information leading to his arrest.
- Authorities continue search efforts while honoring the deceased girls, with an online fundraiser raising over $1.26 million and family members holding memorials expressing grief and hope for justice.
