Travis Decker’s DNA found on plastic bags, zip ties used in killings of daughters

There are new details in the search for Travis Decker — the man accused of killing his three young daughters at a campground near Leavenworth.

According to Chelan County investigators, Travis Decker’s DNA was the only DNA found on the murder weapons at a campsite near Levanworth in June. The murder weapons include plastic bags found at the scene.

The girls’ own DNA was also detected on the bags, but no other DNA profiles were present. A DNA sample taken from the cable ties also matched Travis Decker, investigators said after they found several cable ties scattered near the scene.

The county medical examiner confirmed that Decker’s three daughters, Paityn, Evelyn, and Olivia, died from suffocation. Deputies first found the girls’ bodies on June 2 near the Rock Island Campground.
