DNA analysis confirms that Wenatchee triple murder suspect Travis Decker is the only suspect involved in the killing of his three young daughters.
The girls bodies were found near the Rock Island campground June 2nd.
Chelan County Sheriff’s Chief Ryan Moody said Tuesday the state crime lab has told Sheriff’s detectives that DNA from the plastic bags that were covering each of his daughter’s heads, and on cable ties collected at the scene, matched the profile for Decker.
"What that analysis said is that Travis Decker's is the only persons DNA that was on that besides the victims," Chief Moody said. "What that does is obviously it solidifies our belief that Travis Decker acted alone."
Chief Moody added that investigators don’t have any evidence to suggest Decker is either alive or deceased. Detectives continue to work with local, State and Federal law enforcement partners to coordinate continued search efforts.
