DNA evidence confirm Travis Decker is sole suspect in his daughters’ murders

(CNN, KYMA/KECY) - Investigators believe Travis Decker is the only suspect in his daughters' killings.

The Washington state father of three is still on the run nearly three months after his daughters were found dead near a campsite in the Cascades.

The Chelan County Sheriff's Office says five-year-old Olivia, eight-year-old Evelyn, and nine-year-old Paityn were found with multiple plastic bags over their heads.

DNA samples from the bags and cable ties at the scene matched the profile for Decker.

Authorities say no other DNA was found on the evidence.
