Law enforcement officers in West Virginia may no longer have to “confirm” a child has been abducted to issue an AMBER Alert. The state senate approved a bill in April that would allow the alert to be issued for any missing child. Legislators also approved the “Kelsey Smith Act” that lets police compel a wireless provider to issue a “ping” on the phone of anyone considered to be in danger. Police in Kansas were denied access to Kelsey Smith's cellphone number for 4 days because she had not dialed 911. Her body was found 45 minutes after a ping finally went out.
