The footprints were found at the home of Mrs. Barbara Christiansen, 44245 Second St. E., where Donna sat with the Christiansen children, Miselle, 5; Shawnee Lee, 4, and Mark, 3. Today, more than 100 deputies conducted a house-to-house search in the Christiansen neighborhood and in the surrounding desert."
