A missing person is a person who has disappeared and whose status as alive or dead cannot be confirmed as their location and condition are unknown. A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2 to 5 percent of missing children in Europe.
By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends.
A number of organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and images of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.

According to current statistics, 4,000 people in the United States go missing every day.
Sometimes a child suddenly vanishes from the bus stop or the local park or even from their own yard or bedroom. Or a teenager doesn�t return home after a walk to the neighborhood grocery store or a bike ride or a party with friends.
Other times, an adult is mysteriously absent from their job or neighbors haven�t seen them for several days, and family and friends haven�t heard from them either.

Details of Disappearance Quisenberry was last seen in Thomasville, Georgia sometime during June 1989. Witnesses saw her boyfriend, Jerry Robert Hobbs, carrying her over his shoulder at a shelter for battered women. Hobbs later stated they were in a trailer on Lost Arrowhead Lane off Carter Road, near Stewart Road, and Quisenberry got drunk and passed out. He left, and when he returned. she was gone. She has never been heard from again.
Quisenberry's loved ones reported her missing in August 1989. Her daughter was pregnant at the time of her disappearance and they kept in close contact, and Quisenberry also was in regular touch with her sisters. Her family believed she'd met with foul play. There was a history of domestic violence between Quisenberry and Hobbs.
The investigation into Quisenberry's was reopened in 2009 and blood was found in the trailer she disappeared from. In May 2009, Hobbs was arrested and charged with her murder. He told police that whatever happened between himself and Quisenberry was "between him and God."
In June, however, the against Hobbs was dismissed for lack of evidence and he was released. He moved to Washington state and is now deceased. Foul play is suspected in Quisenberry's due to the circumstances involved.
