Manhunt for Travis Decker shifts to Idaho's Sawtooth National Forest

Seattle, WALocal News

The manhunt for Travis Decker has transitioned to Idaho’s Sawtooth National Forest as authorities investigate multiple sightings matching his description. Decker, a 32-year-old ex-soldier, is accused of murdering his three daughters, aged 9, 8, and 5, whose bodies were found near Leavenworth, Washington, in late May. He was last seen on May 30 after a custodial visit and has been on the run since. DNA evidence from a bloody fingerprint links him to the crime scene, and investigators assert there are no other suspects in the case. The U.

S. Marshals Service is collaborating with various local and federal agencies to pursue leads. Officials are particularly interested in information from anyone who was in the Bear Creek area recently. The search, now in its second month, raises concerns over Decker’s mental health, as he was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. Authorities have stated they have no evidence to suggest whether Decker is alive or deceased at this time.
