Washington State police released new images of the dad accused of murdering his three daughters as they continue their search for the former Army soldier.

Travis Decker, 32, is wanted for the murder of his children Paityn, nine, Evelyn, eight, and Olivia, five.

Authorities started searching for Decker’s daughters after they failed to return home from a scheduled visit with him on May 30.

On Monday, the sisters’ lifeless bodies were discovered at a campsite in Leavenworth – about 20 miles from their home. 

Their wrists had been bound with zip ties and each of them had been suffocated with a plastic bag.

A massive manhunt is underway for the missing father, and the Chelan County Sheriff’s Office released new images of Decker on Saturday.

An updated wanted poster showed Decker wearing a tan shirt with the number 59 on the sleeve, dark shorts, flip flops with his hair tied back, carrying pizza boxes. 

The poster also included close up photos of Decker’s tattoos on his arms and ankle, and stated that Decker was ‘last seen wearing tan or green t-shirt, dark shorts.’

‘Updated photos of murder suspect Travis Decker, who is considered dangerous and may be armed. Do not approach, call 911 immediately,’ the poster stated. 

The Chelan County Sheriff’s Office announced they would be removing road blocks and reopening roads after hundreds of law enforcement personnel search dozes of structures and the forest.

‘However, we ask the public to remain vigilant at they venture back out to the recreation areas of Chelan County,’ the sheriff’s office said.

‘We ask that the public help continue to help us in this search. Please review your doorbell cameras and security cameras for signs of Mr. Decker.

‘If you are out in the woods, or recreation areas, and come across something you believe would be beneficial for law enforcement, note the time and location and mark the location on your electronic devices if possible.’

After finding the girls, investigators ‘obtained and served multiple search warrants for records contained in Decker’s Google accounts,’ leading them to discover that the 32-year-old appeared to be planning how to relocate to Canada, according to an affidavit reviewed by the Independent.

In the affidavit, Deputy U.S. Marshal Keegan Stanley wrote that Decker made several searches on May 26, including: ‘how does a person move to Canada,’ ‘how to relocate to Canada’ and ‘jobs Canada.’

The father, who remains on the run, then visited the website ‘Find a job – Canada.ca,’ Stanley detailed.

His daughters’ remains were also found ‘relatively close to the Canadian border and approximately 11 miles from the Pacific Crest Trail, a well-established trail that leads directly to Canada,’ per the affidavit.

Decker, who is wanted on three counts each of first-degree murder and first-degree kidnapping, also ‘has training in navigation, woodland/mountainous terrain, long distance movements, survival and numerous other disciplines needed to be able to flee,’ the affidavit continued.

‘Prior to the above alleged crimes, Decker frequently recreated in outdoor, woodland and mountainous areas throughout the Eastern District of Washington and surrounding states,’ it read.

‘Amongst other outdoorsman activities, Decker frequently engaged in hiking, camping, survival skill practice, hunting and even lived off the grid in the backwoods for approximately 2.5 months on one occasion.’

He is considered very dangerous given his extensive military training and propensity for violence.
