TRAVIS Decker’s final message to his ex-wife before he allegedly killed their three daughters has been revealed.
As the manhunt for the fugitive ramps up with new pictures of him, his ex-wife Whitney Decker said “something broke” inside the veteran after he acted normal on Friday.
Paityn Decker, 9, Evelyn Decker, 8, and Olivia Decker, 5, were found dead at a campground on Monday after they left for a planned custody visit with Decker three days earlier.
Cops found the girls down an encampment at Rock Island Campground in Chelan County, Washington, with their dad’s truck nearby.
But Decker, 32, was nowhere to be found, sparking a manhunt for the fugitive as cops warn the former soldier has extensive military skills and can survive in the wilderness for months.
Whitney reported her daughters missing on Friday after Decker didn’t return them from the planned three-hour custody visit.
She said he picked them up at 5 pm and the former couple spoke for about 20 minutes before he left, making her believe nothing was out of the ordinary.
“He said, ‘Hey, I will see you at 8 [p.m.]’ and he left, and he never came back,” Arianna Cozart, Whitney’s attorney who Whitney has allowed to speak on her behalf, told ABC News.
The mom said there were never any visitation issues before Friday.
“Something came out of this man and he broke, that’s it,” Cozart said.
“When that man picked up those girls, his babies, he did not have a plan to kill them; there’s nothing that indicates that he did.”
