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 Henry was last seen by his girlfriend at a residence at Mile 25 on Chena Hot Springs Road in Fairbanks, Alaska on the morning of March 31, 2010. They were at a friend's home when Henry suddenly left without explanation. He has never been heard from again.
Henry has several warrants out for his arrest and he had failed to turn himself in to serve a jail sentence for theft. His mother stated he was stressed about his pending incarceration and the recent death of his grandfather, but it's uncharacteristic of him to be out of contact with his family.
At a recent court appearance, he told the judge he was committed to his children and his girlfriend and that he was "growing up." He may still be in the Fairbanks area, or he may be in Anchorage or North Pole, Alaska. The circumstances of his disappearance are unclear.
