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 Christian was last seen in Corpus Christi, Texas on November 24, 2005. He left his home in the company of David Todd Andrews on a 74-foot boat named the Gypsy II. Photos of the boat and Andrews are posted with this summary.
Andrews and Christian were seen together on the boat in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Louisiana, reportedly bound for the Florida Keys. The Gypsy II was reportedly taking in water at the time, but Andrews and Christian declined assistance from a civilian boater. Christian, Andrews and the boat have not been seen since.
Andrews's date of birth is June 8, 1966, making him 39 years old at the time of Christian's disappearance. He's described as Caucasian, 5'11 and 200 pounds, with brown hair and hazel eyes. His nickname is Captain Dusty.
Authorities believe Christian left of his own accord with Andrews. Andrews claimed that Christian was his son, but this isn't true.
Christian's mother didn't give permission for her son to leave on the boat trip, but she didn't report him as a missing person until January 4, six weeks after he left home. His disappearance remains unsolved.
