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 Glenna disappeared from Alliance, Ohio on June 2, 2009. She has never been heard from again and was classified as a runaway for years. She may have taken a purple bicycle with her.
In December 2021, Robert Lindsey Moore was charged with aggravated murder, murder and being a repeat violent offender in connection with Glenna's disappearance. He is the last person known to have seen her alive.
According to the prosecution's theory of the , Glenna and her boyfriend ran away from home in 2009. They stayed with Moore at his home for a couple of nights, and he offered them alcohol.
At some point, according to witnesses, Glenna went to her boyfriend, wearing only a sheet, and said Moore had tried to rape her. Moore was infuriated at her accusation and told both Glenna and her boyfriend to leave his residence. He offered to give Glenna a ride back to her own house, and she got in the car with him.
About an hour and a half later, Moore returned home alone and said Glenna had jumped out of the car while he was at a stop sign. Relatives who saw him at the time noted his pants were muddy from the knees down, he was splattered with blood from the waist up, his hands were "busted up" and his knuckles were bloodstained; he said he'd been "jumped" and beaten by three men. Glenna has never been heard from again.
Moore had a prior history of violent offenses and had been charged with murder in the 1993 death of a Stark County, Ohio woman named Virginia Lecorchick, but convicted of involuntary manslaughter after a jury trial and served fifteen years in prison. He stated he had "just exploded" and killed Lecorchick after she refused his sexual advances, then dumped her body in a lake.
At Moore's trial in the spring of 2022, the jury acquitted him of aggravated murder, but was unable to come to a verdict on the charge of murder. He will remain in jail while the prosecution decides whether to retry him for murder.
Moore is awaiting trial in Glenna's . Her body has not been recovered, but foul play is suspected in her disappearance due to the circumstances involved.
