Leslie Caudill Turner, the wife of missing high school football coach Travis Turner, addressed rumors that she aided in her husband's disappearance. "Criminal charges were not obtained against Travis until days after he failed to return home," the family's attorney said in a statement to Us Weekly on Wednesday, December 3. "He was not a fugitive nor wanted by law enforcement at the time he went missing. His wife was not helping him escape, she was asking for help to find him." Travis, 46, went missing on November 20, last seen by members of his family walking into the woods near their home while carrying a gun. Days later, he was charged with five counts of child pornography and five counts of using a computer to solicit a minor. Missing High School Football Coach Might Not Have Acted Alone: Detective "The family of Travis Turner continues to cooperate with law enforcement efforts to locate Travis," the statement said. "Their homes and properties have been searched multiple times, with their consent." Leslie did not immediately contact authorities when her husband walked into the woods on November 20 because "this was something he had done multiple times throughout the years." "When he did not return to his home that evening, his wife, out of concern, asked for assistance from law enforcement.," the statement explained. "As directed, she filed a missing person report the following day with the Virginia State Police." Travis was officially classified as an "endangered missing person" by the VSP on November 22. Leslie's fears about her husband's disappearance were "heightened" when she realized Travis left home without a host of essential items. "Travis' car and keys were left at home," the statement read. "Travis wore contact lenses by day and glasses in the evenings. Travis' contact lens supplies and glasses were left at home. Travis' wallet, license, cash, and all its contents were left in the home. Travis is prescribed certain daily medications which he needs, those were left in the home. It is not like Travis to disappear or stay away from home." Leslie and Travis have been married since 2001 and share three children: sons Bailey, 25, and Grayden, 21, and daughter Brynlee, 11. The United States Marshals Service joined the search for Travis on the ground in Virginia on Monday, December 1. Missing H.S.
