A massive search effort is currently underway in Minnesota for a missing mother of two, Kira Trevino. The 30-year-old was last seen on February 21, 2013, and her husband, Jeffery Trevino, was later convicted of her murder. Despite extensive searches at the time, Kira’s body was never found.
Now, eight years later, a renewed search effort has brought together close to 2,000 volunteers from across the state. The search is being coordinated by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA), with assistance from local law enforcement agencies and volunteer organizations.
The search began on Saturday, April 17, with volunteers gathering at the Keller Regional Park in Maplewood, Minnesota. They were divided into teams and given specific areas to search, including parks, wooded areas, and bodies of water.
The search effort has been aided by technology, with drones and other equipment being used to scan the terrain from above. The BCA has also set up a tip line for anyone with information about Kira’s disappearance.
The massive search effort is a testament to the dedication and determination of the volunteers, many of whom have been following Kira’s case for years. It also highlights the importance of community involvement in solving crimes and bringing closure to families.
Kira’s family has expressed their gratitude for the outpouring of support and the efforts of the volunteers. They have also emphasized the need for continued awareness and vigilance in cases of missing persons.
The search for Kira Trevino is ongoing, and anyone with information is urged to contact the BCA tip line at 651-793-7000. The massive search effort serves as a reminder that even after years have passed, there is always hope for answers and justice.
