HOUSTON -- Members of Texas EquuSearch have traveled to Orlando, Fla., on a mission to find a 3-year-old girl who has been missing for months, KPRC Local 2 reported Thursday.
Caylee Marie Anthony, 3, was last seen June 9. Her mother, Casey Anthony, didn't report her disappearance to police until more than a month later.
Tim Miller, founder of Texas EquuSearch, received a call from the family to help search for the girl.
"Caylee's grandmother called and she really wants our help," Miller said. "Her grandma and grandpa are just distraught."
Orange County sheriff's deputies took air and hair samples from Anthony's car. They announced Wednesday that scientific evidence of a decomposing body was found inside the trunk of the car.
Detectives will soon be able to confirm if the DNA collected from the car matches Caylee's.
Miller said that although it has been two months since Caylee's disappearance, he is optimistic that his crew will find her alive.
"We're going take our hearts and determination to see if we can hopefully find this little baby alive and bring her home," he said.
Casey Anthony has been charged with child neglect, making false statements and obstructing an investigation. She is out of jail on a $500,000 bond.
