Marc Giauque reporting Police belive she's dead, but the family of a missing Utah girl has doubts. And now they're releasing an age-enhanced photo of the child, in hopes of finding new leads.
Adam Bishop says they're trying to find closure, and that there's simply not enough evidence out there to convince them Acacia was drowned, after she was kidnapped by her Grandmother. An age enhanced photo shows a blonde haired smiling girl who'd now be four years old.
"We think of what if nothing had happened? This is how she would look, and what she'd be doing, probably getting ready to go to school here soon, in pre-school. There's just a slew of emotions," said Bishop.
Bishop says the last time Acacia was seen, she was a toddler. He says that posed a problem for people who enhanced the photo because they change so much over time. The photo is being released nationwide in USA Today.
