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 Nylo was last seen in Cincinnati, Ohio on December 4, 2020. He has never been heard from again and his mother, Nyteisha Lattimore, disappeared with him. They lived on Melrose Avenue in the Walnut Hills area.
At 3:30 a.m. December 12, Nyteisha's body was found inside a body bag near the Purple People Bridge on the Ohio River; she'd been stabbed to death. With her body was a Paw Patrol blanket with Nylo's blood on it. The next day, Nylo's stroller was also found in the river, near where his mother had been located.
Neighbors reported hearing the sounds of a struggle coming from Nylo and Nyteisha's apartment on December 5. Investigators believe Nyteisha was murdered that day by her boyfriend, Desean Brown. Photos of both Nyteisha and Brown are posted with this summary. Authorities believe Brown threw Nylo in the Ohio River, alive, on December 6, five days before he dumped Nyteisha's body.
A few days after Nyteisha's body was found, Brown was charged with murder, felonious assault, gross abuse of a corpse and tampering with evidence in Nyteisha's . He had purchased a body bag from eBay, and on December 11 he took an Uber ride with the bag to the Ohio River, telling the driver that he was moving out and the bag contained his clothes.
Desean is awaiting trial in Nyteisha's . If convicted, he could face the death penalty. He has not been charged in connection with Nylo's presumed death.
Nylo's body has not been located, but foul play is suspected in his due to the circumstances involved.
