Adventures with Purpose searched Donner Lake for more than two hours, trying to figure out where Kiely's car, which had also gone missing, could've entered the water. They searched a couple of ponds in the Cold Stream area, but the water was too shallow, team leader Doug Bishop, told FOX40. Prior to their alleged success, the search included several more hours in the Boca Reservoir, putting two boats in the water to assist them. The search party's selected locale is a bit unusual since it's 16 minutes from the campsite. Bishop couldn't disclose the details of the team's decision to search through Donner Lake. "I really wish I could tell you," Bishop told the outlet. "Unfortunately, I can't, what we're working with right now, no one knows." Nick Rinn, a certified diver, said: ...We're taking our resources and the intel that we've been provided and we're trying to see different avenues.... He said it was a ...different place to look." Bishop did tell FOX that "there's multiple roads that lead here, directly from Prosser.... "We also know there several parties at Prosser that night, as well as this lake that night. As well as Stampede." The team has been in contact with local authorities and Kiely's extended family after fans urged them to take on the case. "With 15 to 20 million viewers per month, there was an overwhelming demand, not only by multiple different agencies, all of our supporters," Bishop told the outlet. The team said on YouTube that they can be particularly helpful in Kiely's case because they specialize in underwater searches and have the tools needed like sonar technology. They told FOX that they believe they are different from previous search parties because there is no red tape, they have a fresh pair of eyes, and use unorthodox search tactics. "When you miss a loved one or a friend… and you don't know, it's a nightmare,... Bishop said. "What we provide is those answers, when we're able to. That's what we're hoping to do in this case." Adventures with Purpose has millions of subscribers on YouTube with viewers watching the team travel around the country investigating cold cases. This case is new for the team as it's still fresh. It's only just over two weeks since the wild party she was attending. "It's tough," Bishop told the outlet. "I don't want to find her. If she's here and something has happened to her, I do. ...I want to be able to provide the family and this community answers so they can properly lay her to rest." Fears of Abduction Although Kiely's case may seem like a missing person case, police are treating it as an abduction based on one key fact. That night, Kiely was driving her silver 2013 Honda CRV with California license plate 8YUR127. However, the cops have not been able to find her car, which is why they are treating Kiely's disappearance as an abduction case. Likewise, Lindsey's best friend, Marika Beck, 42, fears that Kiely might've been taken. She said: ...We're really concerned she's been taken out of state, potentially trafficked and heading to the borders, ...So if we can get the borders actively locked down and patrolled for every f**king car that goes through there, it's very likely she's still in the car because they haven't found it.... Eerie Sweatshirt Message Officials believed Kiely could have been wearing a friend's sweatshirt at the time of her disappearance. They claim that she may have worn that sweatshirt later on in the night as the temperature dropped in the woods.
