And CART Coordinators/Teams: If you’ve done a promo video, feature interview, or other public awareness (and for your area LEAs too) piece, feel free to share!
Thanks,
BonniePosted on behalf of Kay Vazquez, Puerto Rico Clearinghouse for Missing Children:
Our clearinghouse doesn’t have a “program“ for long term missing persons. We currently have 12 long term cases, the oldest being from 1974 and the latest from 2015. When the investigations stalls or goes cold, the case sometimes gets inactive. But is doesn’t mean we don’t corroborate new tips provided by the public and/or review the case and see if we “missed” or did not complete a task. One of the last steps we do is collect DNA from family members and create a yellow notice to send out to other INTERPOL member countries. The last, has surprisingly provided leads that we can check on.
Posted on behalf of Megan Eschleman, Program Manager, Investigative Services Program, Missing and Unidentified Persons Section, Violent Crime Investigative Support Section:
While we do not have a Long-Term Missing Program currently, we are also interested on receiving information from/about similar programs from the other partners.
Posted on behalf of Captain Michael Turner, Missouri AMBER Alert Coordinator, Missouri State Highway Patrol:
Missouri does have a Missing Persons Unit within the State Highway Patrol. More information on this unit can be found at https://www.mshp.dps.missouri.gov/MSHPWeb/PatrolDivisions/DDCC/Units/MissingPersonsJuvenileUnit/index.html and may offer assistance and other points of contact for your inquiry.
Posted on behalf of Michael Giddens, Special Agent Supervisor, Florida Dept. of Law Enforcement:
FDLE is part of a joint initiative through its Missing Endangered Persons Information Clearinghouse (MEPIC) and the Medical Examiners Commission (MEC). The purpose of this initiative is to gather resources and methods to identify the unidentified deceased persons and bring renewed attention to the growing number unidentified persons in Florida. Information on this initiative can be found at https://www.fdle.state.fl.us/MCICSearch/UnidentifiedProgram.asp and may offer assistance and other points of contact for your inquiry.
Posted on behalf of Sergeant Terry L. Styf, West Fargo, ND, Police Department:
The West Fargo PD does not currently have a Long-Term Missing/Cold Case program. However we are interested in hearing about others’ programs and efforts here as well, as our Special Investigations Sergeant is considering options for this type of program currently.
From Joni Turnpin, CJIN Administrative Support Specialist, Montana Department of Justice:
Unfortunately we do not have a dedicated missing person cold case unit set up in our Division of Criminal Investigations unit for the MTDOJ at this time. Presently each local law enforcement agency that is in charge of a missing person case has their own version of a cold case unit. Montana DOJ’s DCI unit is brought in upon request from the local agencies if they need assistance with a case.
