Kampfer: Report of Dunn Evidence in Landfill Not Accurate

Colorado City's City Manager Pete Kampfer says reports that dogs searching landfills turned up evidence in the disappearance of 13-year-old Hailey Dunn are not accurate.

Kampfer says while dogs got two "hits," nothing has been confirmed as evidence in the case.

An Associated Press report titled "Landfill Search Yields Clues in Missing Dunn Case?" has circulated across the country on the websites of television stations and newspapers. In the report, Kampfer is cited as saying dogs "turned up evidence." Kampfer says he can't confirm that.

Investigators combed through trash at Allied Waste Services Friday, and law enforcement deemed the search "unsuccessful."

Trash from Colorado City is transferred to Abilene, Odessa, or Snyder, Kampfer previously told bigcountryhomepage.com.

Texas DPS Senior Trooper Sparky Dean says many landfills in the vicinity of Colorado City have already been searched. Dean said searches of this nature are not uncommon in missing persons cases that may involve criminal activity.

It is my belief that Adkins murdered that poor little girl. Most likely in the late evening of the 26th.
He left work early in the morning of the 27th to dispose of the body, while no one else was home. They are searching the landfills just in case he put her into a dumpster (makes me sick). They are searching every place he could have dumped the body between 7am and 4pm of the 27th.
Geez, my prayers are with her and the family.
