During a search, officers found the bodies of the three girls. Police believe the girls died from asphyxiation and reported that their wrists were zip-tied, court documents said.  <\/p>\n<p>Anyone who may have seen Decker since Friday or knows his current location is asked to call 911.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Due to safety concerns, do not attempt to contact or approach Decker,&#8221; police said.<\/p>\n<p>The mother told police that Decker picked the girls up around 5 p.m. but had not returned them by 8 p.m., and his phone went straight to voicemail, court documents said.<\/p>\n<p>The detective said she &#8220;expressed concern because Decker reportedly has never done this before and \u2026 is currently experiencing some mental health issues.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What prompted her to call us was that &#8230; he was late returning the girls and had not communicated to her that he was going to be late, which was his typical fashion and so this was out of the ordinary,&#8221; Capt. Brian Chance said.<\/p>\n<p>Washington State Patrol was contacted Friday night to request an Amber Alert, but it did not meet the required criteria, Wenatchee police said. The following day, Wenatchee detectives contacted the patrol with additional information that led to the issuance of an Endangered Missing Person Alert.<\/p>\n<p>The lacking criteria were suspected abduction and imminent peril of death or serious injury, said Chris Loftis, director of public affairs for the state patrol.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In this case, it was a parent with custodial privileges, and the children had not been returned home on time. But that&#8217;s a rather common occurrence and not something where you just automatically assume abduction,&#8221; he said, adding that there was no indication Decker, a custodial parent who had the children for a visit, would harm them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re people too, you know, so the loss of a child, the loss of two children, the loss of three children is &#8230; devastating,&#8221; Loftis said. &#8220;Everybody always looks to how we can improve.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The alert systems are constantly evolving and this could prompt further change, Loftis said: &#8220;Obviously it didn&#8217;t work this time. Obviously we have three children that are dead.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In an exclusive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kiro7.com\/news\/local\/bodies-3-missing-wenatchee-sisters-founds-father-still-loose\/62VAR53NANFZZGNPVUG3QXNAYA\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">interview with KIRO-TV<\/a>, the girls&#8217; mother, Whitney Decker, said there have never been any problems with visitations with Travis Decker in the past.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-left embed--size-small\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/06\/03\/f05506bf-8f80-45aa-b54b-e3e2f726a7ff\/thumbnail\/620x403\/8b59720be5fdbbdaf6e1f9b597372172\/decker-screenshot-2025-06-03-165015.png?v=bf13c71e7181bf2db128edf777c4aecf#\" alt=\"decker-screenshot-2025-06-03-165015.png \" height=\"403\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/06\/03\/f05506bf-8f80-45aa-b54b-e3e2f726a7ff\/thumbnail\/620x403\/8b59720be5fdbbdaf6e1f9b597372172\/decker-screenshot-2025-06-03-165015.png?v=bf13c71e7181bf2db128edf777c4aecf 1x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">Travis Decker<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Wenatchee Police Department<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>According to documents filed for custodial interference, Whitney and Travis were married for seven years but had been divorced for several years. She told KIRO-TV the divorce was civil.<\/p>\n<p>Toward the end of the marriage, he was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder, and Whitney did not believe he was on any medications for that, KIRO-TV reported, citing court filings. Travis Decker was supposed to seek mental health treatment and anger management counseling under the parenting plan, but never did, court filings showed.<\/p>\n<p>The Wenatchee School District said the girls were students at Lincoln Elementary. Counseling services are available for children and staff who need support.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To allow our students, staff and families the space and privacy they need to mourn and begin healing, we respectfully ask that you do not come to the school campus except for regular school business,&#8221; the district said.<\/p>\n<p>Decker joined the Army in 2013 and transferred to the Washington National Guard in 2021, Washington Military Department spokesperson Karina Shagren told The Associated Press. He was a full-time member of the Guard until 2023 or 2024, when he switched to part-time.<\/p>\n<p>Decker stopped attending mandatory monthly drills a little over a year ago, and the Guard was in the process of a disciplinary discharge for him, Shagren said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is an absolute tragedy,&#8221; Shagren said. &#8220;We are mourning along with the community.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Chelan County Sheriff&#8217;s Office, which found the truck, was leading the search in the Okanogan Wenatchee National Forest area while other teams followed up on &#8220;potential credible information and tips&#8221; regarding Decker&#8217;s location, the agency said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>The agency was working with U.S. Marshals to locate and apprehend Decker and the search continued Tuesday evening. A reward of up to $20,000 was available for information leading directly to his arrest.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation
