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.

Wedowee, Alabama
Missing Classification Endangered Missing
Sex Female
Race
White
Age 41 years old
Height and Weight 5'2, 120 pounds
Clothing/Jewelry Description A pink tank top, beige or tan slacks, a gold band with two diamonds, and a ring with a black onyx stone.
Markings and/or Distinguishing Characteristics Caucasian female. Blonde hair, blue eyes. June has a linear scar on her lower abdomen, and has previously cracked her tailbone. Her shoe size is 5 or 6. One of her previous married names is Lee.
Details of Disappearance June was last seen at a roadside rest stop on Highway 431 near Wedowee, Alabama on October 8, 1973. She, her husband Lawrence D. Streeter, and her two children from a previous marriage were traveling from his parents' home in Altha, Florida to their own home in Penn Yan, New York.
Lawrence was driving the car, which was pulling a small travel trailer, and he pulled into the rest stop to spend the night. He, June and their two poodles slept in the travel trailer, and June's children were asleep in the car.
The next morning, Lawrence awakened the children and told them June had left during the night while he was asleep. The dogs were barking inside the trailer, but he wouldn't let the children into it. He unhooked the trailer and drove the children to a nearby town, gave them ten dollars and put them on a bus to Bath, New York, where their father lived. They arrived there two days later.
According to her family, it's uncharacteristic of June to leave without warning; she always kept in touch with her family. She had met Lawrence, her fifth husband, four years earlier while he was working a carnival. After their marriage, they traveled a circuit as a husband and wife country music duet, singing at clubs and carnivals.
However, by the time of her disappearance June was tired of traveling and said she wanted to settle down. Her sister stated June was afraid of Lawrence and that she had left him several times, would always return to him. He had allegedly threatened her with a pistol on multiple occasions.
When June's family hadn't heard from her by Christmas 1973, they reported her missing to the Penn Yan Police Department, and the Penn Yan police made inquiries in Florida and Alabama, but found no trace of her.
Investigators interviewed Lawrence and searched the travel trailer, and found a .32-caliber pistol and some of June's clothes. He insisted she had simply left him during the night and never returned. He moved to Florida shortly after her disappearance and was later arrested on an outstanding larceny warrant out of Georgia, but the larceny was later settled in civil court.
June's family believes she is dead and may be buried in the marshes along Highway 431 in Alabama. Her disappearance remains unsolved. Penn Yan police are still the investigating agency.
