In Chelan County, Washington, three young sisters were found dead following a scheduled visit with their father. Olivia, 5, Evelyn, 8, and Paityn Decker, 9, were reported missing by their mother on May 30, 2025. Their bodies were discovered near a campground several days later, with police confirming asphyxiation as the cause of death. Their father, Travis Decker, is the prime suspect and remains at large. A GoFundMe campaign has raised over $330,000 to support the girls’ grieving mother.

In a separate incident in Albuquerque, New Mexico, authorities responded to a house fire on May 24, where the bodies of three family members were found, all fatally shot. That same morning, a fourth body was discovered nearby—identified as the suspected shooter, who died by suicide. Police believe mental health issues may have contributed to the tragedy, though the investigation is ongoing.
