The Black Hawk County Sheriff's office did not release a lot of new details during a press conference Thursday. However, authorities did shed more light on the area where the girls' bodies were found. <br /><br />A captain with the Black Hawk County Sheriff's Department says bodies presumed to be Elizabeth Collins and Lyric Cook were found in the Seven Bridges Park in rural Bremer County. The park is about 22-miles north of Evansdale where the girls disappeared. The park is closed to the public and will remain closed until at least Monday, so investigators can search for evidence. <br /><br />Seven Bridges Park is very large and the Sheriff's Department is not sure if the area where the bodies were found was searched before. The spot where the hunters made the discovery is not along the road. Also, during the press conference authorities said the bodies have not been positively identified, but they are certain they have found the missing girls.<br /> <br />"At this time law enforcement is confident based upon evidence at the scene and preliminary investigation that the bodies found yesterday are those of Lyric Cook and Elizabeth Collins," says Captain Rick Abben with the Black Hawk County Sheriff's Department, "We have no one else that's missing in this area, but we have 2 bodies that were found. They were smaller in stature and we have no reason to think other at this time."<br /> <br />The Sheriff's Department is still treating the case as an abduction. Investigators are leaning towards calling it a homicide, but that has not officially happened. No information about a suspect in the girls' disappearance has ben released. A reward is still being offered for information that will lead to an arrest.<br /> <br />----------------------------- <br /> <br />PREVIOUS UPDATE: The mother of one of the two cousins who went missing in Evansdale, Iowa last July said Wednesday evening that two bodies discovered earlier that day are those of the girls. <br /> <br />Heather Collins posted the following statement on her Facebook page: <br /> <br />"We have been so blessed by the [outpouring] of all the (prayers) and support tonight with the gut wrenching news that my beautiful daughter and niece's bodies were found by hunters today. This was [not] the outcome we wanted but we know that they are up in heaven with our Savior and [our] nightmare of where they are and what is happening to them has been answered. <br /> <br />Lord, we know that you have them in your loving arms and we are so blessed [f]or that."<br /> <br />Investigators have not yet confirmed the identity of the bodies. They also will not yet say exactly where the bodies were discovered. However, several sources tell KWWL-TV the bodies were found in a wooded area of the 7 Bridges Park in rural Bremer County. The park is 22-miles north of Evansdale, where the girls went missing last July.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br />At a late afternoon news conference, Capt. Rick Abben announced they are still waiting for positive identification by the Iowa Medical Examiner's Office in Ankeny, where the bodies have been sent.<br /> <br />Authorities and members of the community have been searching for 10-year-old Lyric Cook and 8-year-old Elizabeth Collins since the girls disappeared on July 13th. Their bikes were found near a lake by their home in Evansdale, Iowa. The lake is near Interstate 380, just outside of Waterloo.<br /> <br />Abben said "It's not the outcome we wanted" and that the girl's families have been notified of the discovery. He said the families wished to thank the community for all its support and asked for privacy at this time.<br /> <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8111416636501955479.post-90777434896609406412012-12-17T16:49:09.285-06:002012-12-17T16:49:09.285-06:00This was the two missing girls found.

Rick Abben said during a press conference that an examination by the state medical examiners office would be needed for identification of the remains that were found, reports the Des Moines Register.<br /> <br />Abben released very little information and declined to say the sex of the bodies or ages or exactly where they had been found. <br /><br />Lyric Morrisey, 10, and Elizabeth Collins, 8, from Evansdale, Iowa in Black Hawk County went missing after they didn't return home from a bike ride on July 13, 2012. They were last seen around 12:30 p.m. in downtown Evansdale by a shop owner and their bikes were found on a bike trail on the southeast corner of Meyers Lake.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />© 2012 Microsoft Corporation© 2012 Nokia<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Location: meyers lake evansdale<br /> 42.461528778076 ; -92.290435791016 . <br />"We're still holding out complete hope that it's not them," Carrie Yu of Elk Run Heights told USA Today.

Why would a kidnapper release TWO girls, who were of age to "know" what was going on, who they were and describe them perfectly.....In addition, if this was the case, there would have to be some point in this time where the dealers contact the father...someone to inform that the girls are alive and will remain that way so long as he keeps his mouth shut. If this has happened, then we just don't know about it. Unfortunately, it looks like one or both of the parent's have a hand in this.....either for selfish reason's....or for manipultive reason's regarding their pending case......Yhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04942420110192420444noreply@blogger.com
