Kayleah Wilson case: Backpack lead' goes nowhere
Friday, April 9, 2010
What could have been a major lead in the case of a missing 12-year-old girl in Greeley turned out to be an old backpack.
An employee at a business in the area of 13th Street and 8th Avenue told police Wednesday that he had a backpack that once belonged to missing Kayleah Wilson. But he'd had the backpack for several months.
The man, who said he didn't want to be identified, said he purchased the backpack last October at a church sale. He was looking at the backpack Wednesday and realized it had Kayleah's name in it.
Police met with the man and then contacted Kayleah's mother, April Wilson, who told them the family had donated the backpack to the church last year.
Investigators from Greeley police and the FBI said there were no new leads in the case
