LEAVENWORTH, Wash. (KPTV) - Travis Decker , the Washington father accused of killing his three daughters at a campground in rural Washington earlier this summer, is dead, U.S. Marshals confirmed in a court filing.

A motion to dismiss Decker’s search warrant was filed in U.S. District Court on Tuesday.

In the document, authorities said Decker is dead.

Human remains, believed to be Decker’s were found last week near Leavenworth. But police said they would wait for DNA confirmation before officially announcing his death.
