Officials said Texas EquuSearch conducted a search for Kimberly in 2003 to no avail. 

Dispite the search, Kimberly's family continued searching for answers. 

On Thursday, June 13, Tim Miller, Founder and Executive Director of Texas EquuSearch was called upon by the Beaumont Police Department to assist in an active search for Kimberly based on new information. 

According to a release, upon arrival and initial assessment, Miller requested the assistance of ground penetrating radar systems.
