A week after 3 young sisters were murdered during a court-approved visitation, fugitive father Travis Decker remains on the run — possibly on the Pacific Crest Trail. Tonight, Surviving the Survivor breaks down the latest manhunt developments and the growing Amber Alert controversy.

#STSNation! 

Welcome to Surviving the Survivor — the podcast that brings you the very #BestGuests in all of #TrueCrime. 

It’s been one week since 9-year-old Paityn, 8-year-old Evelyn, and 5-year-old Olivia Decker were found murdered near a Washington State campground — after a court-approved visitation with their father, Travis Decker. 

Now, Decker — a former Army Ranger with survival training — remains on the run. Authorities believe he may be traveling along the Pacific Crest Trail, and the manhunt is intensifying. 

Meanwhile, the case is igniting a nationwide debate over Amber Alert laws, parental visitation safety, and systemic failures in protecting children of parents with documented mental illness and military trauma. 

Tonight, we break down: 

• The latest manhunt developments and leads 

• What went wrong with the Amber Alert process 

• The larger questions about mental health services for veterans and family court protections 

• What happens next in the search for Travis Decker
