I agree with you; but, it seems like there has been quite an uptick in these 'bold' criminals. imo
The local who was posting on here earlier said they saw them until 1 am.

Chippewa Falls police searching for missing child
CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis. (WEAU) - The Chippewa Falls Police Department is searching for a missing child.
10-year-old Iliana M. Peters, who goes by the name Lily, a fourth grader at Parkview Elementary School, was reported missing Sunday at 9 p.m. by her father.
Peters’ father said she did not return home after visiting her aunt’s house on the 400 block of North Grove Street. She was last seen by family members Sunday evening. Peters was supposed to be heading home to the 50 block of East Birch Street, but she wasn’t found in the area. Her bike was found after dark near her aunt’s home near the walking trail between the end of North Grove Street and the Leinenkugel’s Brewery parking lot.
Peters was last seen wearing a purple quarter-zip long-sleeve shirt with black stretch pants and gray shoes.
K9 teams from the Chippewa County Sheriff’s Department and Lake Hallie Police Department were called in to search the area last night. The Chippewa County Sheriff’s Department also used a drone to search the woods near the area Peters went missing. Meanwhile, Chippewa Falls Police investigators continued to follow-up with family and friends who might have information.
Currently, the incident does not meet the criteria for an Amber Alert, according to the Chippewa Falls Police Department, who said they contacted the Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation.
Anyone with information about Peters’ whereabouts is asked to contact the Chippewa County Dispatch Center at 715-726-7701 and select Option 1.

I think they were. They talked about bringing in drones and dogs to look for her, and that search would have taken place after 9pm.
Her bike was found late that night, and her body the next morning around 9:15.

I'd love to know exactly when certain things happened timeline wise. Maybe we'll hear something in an hour.

This article has picture of where her body was found and it does look to be at the end of the trail cause you can see the crime scene tape:
Coroner: Autopsy underway for Lily Peters; Chief to hold press conference

I feel so bad for the people in this town. As a child this would have caused me so much fear and anxiety. I was 10 when Polly Klaas was kidnapped and even though it wasn’t in my town, it was not far from me and it was a defining moment in my life. I realized that evil exists and that our safety is never guaranteed, even at home in our own bedrooms. I hate that these kids will all feel that same sense of a part of their carefree innocence being take away.
That picture was helpful. Further from the trail/path than I was picturing. It makes more sense that they found the bike without finding her.

Agree. Yes the timeline is so important. Not having one sure opens this case up to so many scenarios.

THE heartbreaking death of a young Wisconsin girl is eerily similar to a 26-year-old cold case that inspired the Amber Alert, according to a former FBI agent.
The body of Iliana "Lily" Peters, 10, was discovered in a wooded area not far from her bike on Monday morning outside the Lienenkugel's Brewery in Chippewa Falls, which is a few blocks north of her home.

I’m a local. I live in Chippewa Falls.
<modsnip - rumor>
I’m assuming he told Lily to ‘be home by x’ and didn’t know she’d left the aunt’s and the aunt didn’t know she didn’t make it home. Presumably dad searched for a period of time before calling LE. So this likely happened between 5 and 8pm. Her bike ride home was about 6 minutes one way (the trail) and 4 minutes the other way (Columbia to Rushman).
Some things about this area: When it gets to spring, people dress down. My son insisted on wearing shorts today, it was a high of 48. Lily had a 3/4 zip pullover not a 3/4 sleeve. Think a sweatshirt. The trail has been there for years. Google images shows it very green and overgrown. It’s April, the pavement of the entire path is visible from across the river because there are no leaves. If you stand on Prairie street (both prairie street and birch street start on one side of the creek and continue on the other) and look across the creek, there is a steep embankment from the water up to the path. Then the path. ‘Behind’ the path is a very steep hill. Today there were LE searching the hill. Above the hill is the cemetery, so the cemetery isn’t visible from the trail. There’s a VERY low chance she would have gone up that hill, although when I was a kid, we climbed on occasion as it was a shortcut from the baseball fields to the pool. Again, this ‘woods’ isn’t grown in yet, so the hillside is visible from across the creek. Prairie street isn’t busy. At all, but there are homes facing the creek. I would guess a 10 year old would choose the interesting, fun ride through the trail And over the Leinies bridge every time. If I had to guess I would guess she took that route regularly.
I think where she was found is probably the crime scene, or very close. If dad was looking starting at 8pm then LE was canvassing starting at 9 and going overnight, nobody could have brought the body back to the woods without being seen. I’m guessing, since it took 12 hours to find the body that it was hidden, which would support LE pivoting to homicide upon discovery of the body. Part of me thinks this was a local kid or two, older than her, who just wanted to mess with her. Maybe evilly motivated, maybe accidentally, but then tossed her bike and concealed her body.
But the community is on edge.
