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.
Resources for Missing Persons
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 Williams was last seen in Monaca, Pennsylvania on May 14, 2011. He had been to see his sister in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania the previous evening, then went to visit his mother in Monaca. He was upset at the time and acting strangely, and told his mother he'd lost his job and his friends were angry with him.
Williams left his mother's house at 5:30 a.m. and has never been heard from again. He was driving a black 2005 Ford 500 he'd borrowed from his cousin. The next day, the car was found unlocked and abandoned off a logging road in a remote wooded area of Monongalia County, West Virginia, nearly one hundred miles south of Monaca.
The radio was tuned to a hip-hop station; Williams prefers classical music. The driver's seat was also pushed forward, too far for someone of Williams's height to even get into the car.
Williams has a license to carry a .40 caliber handgun; it hasn't been located. His wallet, car keys and cellular phone are also missing. His remains unsolved.
