Missing Person Photos
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 Scott was last seen in Perry County, Arkansas on August 4, 2006. At first his wife, Pamela Jared, said they went to visit Thornburg Cemetery, she left him there while she went to buy some drinks, and when she returned, Scott was gone.
Later, Pamela changed her story and said the last time she saw him was at a friend's mobile home on 86 Trail on August 3. The three of them cooked methamphetamine together, talked and listened to music. Pamela stated Scott was restless and kept going in and out of trailer. At 11:00 a.m. the next day, she wanted to leave, but she couldn't find her husband anywhere. Pamela said she'd lied to the police at first because she didn't want them to know about the drugs.
A forester reported seeing and speaking with Scott on the morning of August 4. Scott asked him for a drink of water, then talked to him for awhile, saying he was out exploring. The forester didn't know what direction Scott traveled in when he left.
That evening, a woman in Perryville, Arkansas saw a man matching Scott's description sitting on a bridge. The man spoke to someone driving a white Corvette, which drove off without him. About two weeks after Scott's disappearance, a man who knew both him and Pamela saw Scott at a crack house in west Little Rock, Arkansas.
Scott had lost his job earlier that year, and that summer their house was foreclosed on. They were in the process of moving at the time of his disappearance. Pamela stated her husband was depressed over their circumstances and suicidal. In June 2012, she petitioned to have him declared ly dead. His remains unsolved.
