Pleas to the public

A former Army squad mate told our Seattle affiliate that Decker was an "outcast" and a "narcissist."

A GoFundMe to help the children's mother, Whitney, cover expenses and legal costs has surpassed $1 million. 

Investigators say Decker kidnapped his three daughters last Friday. On Monday, 5-year-old Olivia, 8-year-old Evenlyn and 9-year-old Paityn were found dead at the Rock Island Campground outside of Leavenworth, Washington. Investigators say the preliminary cause of death for each was asphyxiation.
