Remembering Kayleah Wilson
Kayleah Wilson was murdered a few months ago as she walked to a birthday party on March 28, 2010. Hundreds of investigators combed the area in Greeley, Colorado for weeks before her body was found in a ditch. Dave Joly with the Denver FBI told me two credible witnesses reported seeing Kayleah around 4:15 p.m. on March 28, 2010, but that was the last time she was ever seen alive.
Investigators have re-traced the path she took, interviewed hundreds of people, and aren’t leaving any stone left unturned. Although Kayleah was only 12, her family said she had an 18-year-old boyfriend that she recently broke up with. That boyfriend has been questioned by authorities and is now facing charges of sexual assault on a minor. Officials have said he is a person of interest in the case, but they have not made any arrests. In fact, authorities are currently interviewing sex offenders within 100 miles of where Kayleah went missing.

Remembering Kayleah Wilson
UPDATE
: Police confirm the body found in Colorado is identified as Kayleah Wilson, and she is the victim of a homicide. Police say they do know the cause of death, but will not release that to the public. The area where her body was found had been searched two previous times before and she was submerged in water. Investigators need your tips to help find her killer.
BACKGROUND: The award to find Kayleah Wilson is up to $20,000. Investigators haven’t given up hope, but there have not been any signs of the missing teen. Dave Joly with the Denver FBI told me two credible witnesses reported seeing Kayleah around 4:15 p.m. on March 28, 2010. That was the last time she was ever seen.
Since then, the FBI has scaled back their efforts and 52 volunteer searchers showed up over the weekend to comb the blocks Kayleah was last seen walking in. Unfortunately, the rain hindered their plans to continue searching.

Kayleah Wilson (missing)
The award to find Kayleah Wilson is up to $20,000. Investigators haven’t given up hope, but there have not been any signs of the missing teen.

Early on, Joly says agents did a search of Kayleah’s mother’s home. “We did a forensic search of the house, went into the home with the consent of the homeowner – we collected DNA samples we felt were Kayleah’s and collected DNA samples from everyone in the residence.” Kayleah was walking to a birthday party around 3:40 p.m. when she vanished. Although the walk was fairly short, only 10 blocks, she never made it. Kayleah was missing over Easter weekend, but investigators still gave their heart and soul and worked through the holiday and into the coming weeks.

Earlier today the FBI announced a reward up to $10,000 for any information leading to Kayleah. Joly also says they have two credible witnesses who reported seeing Kayleah around 4:15 p.m. at the Greeley mall last Sunday. Right now the command post to find Kayleah runs from 8 a.m. – 10 p.m., but if leads come in after the normal hours, investigators will follow up with them immediately.
