Authorities have confirmed that the bodies recovered from the Missouri River in Omaha, Nebraska, this week are those of the three girls who went missing nearly two weeks ago.

The search began after three girls in a group of four on a fishing trip were reported missing on April 15. The operation quickly grew to involve multiple agencies, including local, state, and federal partners.
