When 7-year-old Danydia Betty-Jacqueline Thompson didn’t show up after school to meet her brother and sister for the walk home, both of them knew something was terribly wrong. After telling relatives, the campus of Marlboro Elementary was poured through again in an attempt to find the missing first-grader, but attempts were fruitless. For 8 days, family, neighbors, professionals, law enforcement, Fort Hood soldiers, and countless Killeen residents searched for Danydia. On that 8th day, two military volunteers searching overgrown roadsides miles south of town found the body of Danydia Thompson. Her murder remains unsolved to this day.

If you have any information about the abduction and murder of DaNydia Betty-Jacqueline Thompson, please contact Bell County Crime Stoppers at 254-526-8477.
