FBI Finds Potential Evidence in Travis Decker Manhunt After Two-Day Grid Search

Lab testing will determine whether bones recovered near Rock Island Campground are human or linked to the case.

Overview

  • The FBI concluded a two-day grid search this week near Rock Island Campground in Leavenworth, Washington, deploying more than 100 personnel across roughly 1 million square meters.
  • Investigators recovered several items now under FBI review, including bones sent to Central Washington University’s anthropology lab for confirmation of their origin.
  • Decker was not found during the operation, and officials say determining whether the recovered items relate to the case will take time.
  • Travis Decker remains wanted on three counts of first-degree murder and three counts of kidnapping, is considered armed and dangerous, and carries a reward of up to $20,000 for information leading to his arrest.
  • The children’s mother has expressed frustration with the lack of breakthroughs as local, state and federal agencies continue the multiagency investigation.
