The family believes she was abducted. The Sheriff's Office noted they do not have information or evidence that points to an abduction, but they are not ruling it out.
"I know she is screaming for me right now but I don't know where you are," Kieth said as tears filled his eyes.
Sandra Oswald has headed the volunteer search group over the last few days.
“No one wants to be searching five days out. We wanted her home days ago," she noted.
The searchers were combing through the area off Old Oregon Trail where Sherri's phone was found. On Monday they decided to put their search on hold.
"[We are] just trying to regroup and take everything in over the last three days of our search and figure out what we want to do for the rest of the week. We are all pretty worn out, pretty tired but that doesn't deter us," Oswald explained.
Lieutenant Anthony Bertain with the sheriff's office said they also temporarily suspended their ground search.
"Our resources would be better directed to managing tips, following up on the leads and the information we got from the search on Thursday," he said.
