The FBI is now offering a reward of up to $75,000 for information leading to the arrest of the individual responsible for the murder of 14-year-old Emily Pike, who belonged to the San Carlos Apache tribe.

In a previous report by CrimeOnline, it was detailed that police discovered her dismembered remains near Globe on Valentine’s Day. They were found in trash bags, and some parts of her remains are still missing.

FBI spokesperson Kevin Smith mentioned in an email to AZ Central, “The FBI is offering this reward for any information that can independently verify the identity of those responsible for Emily’s disappearance and murder.”

The FBI’s announcement on May 7 followed a meeting between FBI Director Kash Patel and Emily’s family, where Patel committed to raising awareness and pursuing answers in her case.

The Gila County Sheriff’s Office announced last month that multiple agencies formed a task force, including the sheriff’s office, the San Carlos Apache Police Department, the Mesa Police Department, the FBI, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs.

The task force formed shortly after the San Carlos Apache Tribe offered its own $75,000 reward for information leading to an arrest in Emily’s case.

The sheriff’s office is actively pursuing 10 leads in Emily’s case but has not identified any suspects. Authorities said they will continue searching if new information emerges.

Along with the San Carlos Apache Police Department, the sheriff’s office also launched an online tip portal for Emily’s case. Anonymous tips can be submitted at tips411.

Tribal communities across the country held ceremonies and rallies on May 5 to raise awareness about missing and murdered Indigenous women. Emily has become a symbol in the movement, prompting marches and vigils that called for justice in her name.

Information can also be reported to the Sheriff’s Office at 928-425-4449, option 1, or the San Carlos Apache Police Department at 928-475-1700.

Check back for updates.
