Cheerleader Body Found: 2 Years After Going Missing, Body of 13-Year-Old Hailey Darlene Dunn Recovered

A cheerleader's body has been found two years after she went missing, according to reports.

The remains of Hailey Darlene Dunn were reportedly found near Lake J.B. Thomas in Scurry County last month, according to NBC News. The 13 year old girl went missing two years ago, and authorities are still investigating what happened to the girl.

Authorities searched long and hard around Colorado City, with extensive resources used to conduct searches in the surrounding fields and landfills nearby. Her mother reported her missing on Dec. 28, 2010, and the frantic search for her included posting her picture on more than 100 billboards along the Texas interstates and other states.

Dunn's mom and her mother's boyfriend have both denied any involvement in the girl's disappearance. The boyfriend was a person of interest previously in the investigations but he was never charged with anything.

Her family has now announced that they will be holding a funeral for her soon, and they have said they hope that they can find some peace and healing after finally finding her body.

The body of the 13 year old cheerleader was found 20 miles away from Dunn's hometown of Colorado City.
