Authorities in Washington state said that blood found near the location of three sisters’ bodies matches their father’s DNA.

On Tuesday, in a press release uploaded to Facebook, the Chelan County Sheriff’s Office revealed that the bloody handprint discovered on the vehicle of 32-year-old Travis Decker was identified as his blood. Additional blood found at the proximity — close to where 9-year-old Paityn, 8-year-old Evelyn, and 5-year-old Olivia were discovered deceased on June 2 — also matched Decker. This led authorities to assert, “that we do not have any reason to believe there are any other suspects” in the homicides of the girls.

The Chelan County Sheriff’s Office reported that items collected from Decker’s truck underwent DNA testing. Bloodstains appeared on the truck’s tailgate and allegedly on other evidence pieces found at the truck’s location. Authorities conveyed, “We know, positively, that all of the DNA samples recovered belong to the same, male, subject, who we believe is Mr. Decker.”

Since May 30, when he did not return his three daughters after a scheduled visitation, Decker has been evading capture. That same day, police suspect he allegedly suffocated them. With the search extending beyond a month, officials have also considered the possibility that he may no longer be alive.
