Brad Dennis, the Director of Search Operations for KlaasKids Foundation’s National Search Center for Missing Children, tells bigcountryhomepage.com he has arrived in Colorado City.

Dennis says he'll be meeting with law enforcement throughout the day as well as Hailey's mother, Billie Dunn.

Monday Story:
Representatives from one of the most recognized advocate groups for missing children are on their way to Colorado City to assist in the search for missing 13-year-old Hailey Dunn.

Brad Dennis, the Director of Search Operations for KlaasKids Foundation’s National Search Center for Missing Children, says he'll meet with Hailey's mother, Billie Dunn, to help determine how his group can be help find Hailey.

The KlaasKids Foundation was established in 1994 in an effort to help protect children. The group's founder, Marc Klaas, is the father of murder victim Polly Hannah Klaas. He's regularly appears on the Nancy Grace show to discuss Hailey's case.

Dennis tells KTAB News a decision on how his group will assist will likely be made Tuesday. He says they'll probably help manage the volunteer search efforts.

Dennis has over twenty years of experience in search and rescue and disaster response, according to klaaskids.org. He has managed search efforts for over 60 missing/abducted children around the country.

Texas Equusearch, who originally told KTAB News they expected to be involved in the search, has not returned phone calls for nearly a week.

Officials now say the information that leads to Hailey's safe return is $15,000.

Nice post Michelle... you got his name wrong and he never actually said what you quoted in quotes. Go back and read the affidavits before commenting.

I really do not understand why they can not go to Dunn, Tx and question the Steve guy. He supposedly stated " She can be found in Scurry county " Well, Hailey did not live in Scurry county and her family has not ever said she was planning to go there. She was to go to a friend's, I believe, in Colorada City. Is this not enough evidence to question this Steve guy (and the last person to see her) much much further. They need to go in and search his house and vehicle and do anything possible. I mean REALLY ! What the H !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
