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.

Markings and/or Distinguishing Characteristics Hispanic female. Black hair, brown eyes. Bianca has a large surgical scar on her abdomen and the letter "B" tattooed on her hip. She is right-handed and her ears are pierced.
Details of Disappearance Bianca was last seen in the 16000 block of Walnut Creek Drive in San Antonio, Texas on May 1, 2016. Her husband, Joe "Daniel" Carrasco, said they got into an argument and he took their youngest child and left in his truck to go to work. He stated that after he left, Bianca left home on foot, leaving their other two children home alone, and he passed her in his truck as she walked down the street.
She has never been heard from again. Her phone has been turned off since 10:22 p.m. on May 1, which is completely uncharacteristic of her behavior; she never turned it off.
Bianca and Daniel had married after she got pregnant when she was eighteen years old; he's eleven years older and had previously been married to her aunt. Although they had three children over the next eleven years, their relationship was rocky and her family said Daniel tried to keep Bianca isolated from them. She and her mother were estranged at the time of her disappearance and hadn't spoken to each other in about five years.
Bianca studied at Odessa College and eventually graduated from the Galen College of Nursing in October 2015. She was working as a registered nurse at an oncologist's office when she went missing, and after she graduated nursing school she decided to divorce and immediately changed her relationship status on her Facebook profile from "married" to "divorced."
The Carrascos were still living together, but Bianca was casually seeing other men, a fact Daniel apparently discovered by looking through her phone. A few days before she disappeared, Bianca texted her sister saying, "Daniel emptied the account and opened another account without my name on it, so I have no access to money except my credit card which is almost at the limit. I will not be controlled by a man and money."
At 2:00 p.m. on the day she went missing she spoke to her sister for the last time and spoke about going to see a lawyer and about child custody issues. After her disappearance, Daniel didn't want to report her missing because he thought she had left voluntarily, but her sister insisted.
Police have investigated both Daniel and one of the men Bianca was seeing, but nobody has been named as a suspect in her . Foul play is possible in Bianca's disappearance; her loved ones don't believe she would have walked out of her life and they describe her as a loving and responsible parent who wouldn't have left her children alone as Daniel claims she did. Her remains unsolved.
