EVANSDALE | The person who abducted a pair of cousins two years ago is likely local, according to new information released in connection with the investigation into their disappearance.

Elizabeth Collins, 8, and Lyric Cook-Morrissey, 10, went missing after they left for a bike ride in Evansdale in July 2012. They were later found dead in a rural Bremer County wildlife area. No arrests have been made in their deaths.

On Thursday, Evansdale police unveiled a new web page (http://evansdalepolice.org/latestonlyricandelizabeth.php) to act as a clearinghouse for information on the unsolved case.

Included on the site are newly released details about conclusions drawn from a study by members of the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit, which develops profiles of suspects.

“The offender is familiar with both Meyers Lake/Angels Park in Evansdale and Seven Bridges Wildlife Area in Bremer County,” the site said. It said the suspect chose Seven Bridges because he or she was familiar with the area and knew it was secluded.

“The offender blends in with and may be part of the Evansdale, Bremer and surrounding communities. It is unlikely that the offender is a transient or someone who was merely traveling or ‘passing through’ the area,” according to the site.
