After 24 hours, the search for the remaining child along creeks and streams is still underway.
Kentucky State Police say the weather is not helping and is causing them to slow their search.
"It's extremely muddy, the ground saturated with water, and like I said it's starting to rise on us again so we are not only dealing with the water we are fighting with mud trying to get people in and out of the area." said a KSP trooper.
KSP says two crews will search throughout the night Thursday. Scuba crews from Ashland were called in Thursday to assist. The next rotation of crews will arrive Friday morning.
Kentucky State Police now confirm that four of the five missing children have now been found dead. Search and rescue crews are still searching for the fifth child.
