Indictments related to the Hailey Dunn case are not expected Thursday when the Howard County grand jury meets, according to Midland NBC affiliate KWES.

The 13-year-old girl vanished from her Colorado City home at the end of December. During the investigation, law enforcement says it discovered child pornography on a computer inside the home of Shawn Adkins' mother in Big Spring. Adkins is the boyfriend of Hailey's mother.

Pornography was also seized from the Dunn home. However, Hailey's mother contends it was not child pornography.

Howard County District Attorney Hardy Wilkerson told KWES that no child pornography cases will be going before the grand jury on Thursday. He also told the station he still hasn't received the case from investigators.

To date, only Adkins has been named a suspect in Hailey's disappearance. Law enforcement has called Adkins and Hailey's mother Billie Dunn "persons of interest." According to Colorado City's City Manager Pete Kampfer, there are also other unnamed persons of interest.
