Authorities unveil updated images of Travis Decker as manhunt continues into its third week.

Authorities have issued a warning and released updated photographs of Travis Decker, a 32-year-old man implicated in the tragic deaths of his three young daughters. Detectives from the Chelan County Sheriff’s Office in Washington have indicated that Decker may have altered his appearance as the intensive search for the suspect enters its third week.

The multi-agency operation, aimed at locating Decker, remains robust, involving both aerial and ground search teams. Investigators are diligently processing crime scene evidence and gathering information from previously collected data, as officials continue their efforts to piece together the circumstances surrounding this heinous case.

This announcement follows a week during which law enforcement redirected resources after a potential sighting of Decker was reported in the Enchantments, a remote alpine area in Washington’s central Cascades, known for its rugged terrain and challenging conditions. The Chelan County Sheriff’s Office disclosed that their coordinated efforts involve personnel deployed across the region, particularly in the remote areas of Chelan and Kittitas counties.

In their latest update, authorities released several images to illustrate how Decker may currently appear, showcasing different possibilities that include a mustache, a clean-shaven face, or longer hair. Previously, Decker was described as standing 5 feet 8 inches tall and weighing approximately 190 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a tan or green T-shirt and dark shorts.

Travis Decker is a suspect in the kidnapping and murders of his daughters, 9-year-old Paityn, 8-year-old Evelyn, and 5-year-old Olivia, who were reported missing on May 30. According to Wenatchee authorities, the girls were last observed before a scheduled visitation with their father. Their bodies were discovered three days later in a remote campsite near Rock Island Campground in Chelan County, with officials revealing that their hands were zip-tied and plastic bags were placed over their heads. The subsequent autopsy indicated suffocation as the cause of death.

Decker, a former infantryman in the U.S. Army from March 2013 to July 2021, is deemed particularly dangerous and may be armed. Law enforcement officials urge anyone who encounters him not to approach and to contact 911 immediately. Additionally, the U.S. Marshals Service has announced a reward of up to ,000 for information that could lead to Decker’s arrest. The search for justice continues as the community and authorities grapple with the tragic loss of three innocent lives.
