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.

Date Missing 06/09/1995
Missing From
Alma, Arkansas
Missing Classification Non-Family Abduction
Sex Female
Race
White
Date of Birth 09/12/1988 (34)
Age 6 years old
Height and Weight 4'0, 55 pounds
Clothing/Jewelry Description A green Girl Scouts t-shirt, blue denim shorts and white leather sneakers.
Markings and/or Distinguishing Characteristics Caucasian female. Blonde hair, blue eyes. Morgan had five visible silver caps on her molars at the time of her 1995 disappearance; the caps were scheduled to be removed in 2000. Her teeth were crowded at the time of her 1995 disappearance and she would have needed orthodontic braces in adolescence. Morgan has a protruding purple vein on the lower left side of her rib cage.
Details of Disappearance Morgan attended a Little League Baseball game with her mother in Alma, Arkansas on June 9, 1995. She joined her friends to catch lightning bugs near the baseball field later in the evening.
Morgan was last seen at approximately 10:45 p.m. as she stood near her mother's Nissan Stanza in the parking lot. She was emptying sand from her shoes at the time. She has never been heard from again.
Witnesses told authorities that they observed an unidentified Caucasian male watching Morgan play on the field earlier in the night. The man apparently approached a group of children playing with Morgan and asked them a question; investigators have not publicly released any additional details about the conversation.
The suspect is described as being approximately 23 to 38 years old in 1995, 6'0 and 180 pounds. The suspect had black or salt-and-pepper hair, which was combed to the back and possibly curly, and he had a mustache and three to four days' growth of beard. He also had a hairy chest. He wore cut-off blue jean shorts and no shirt or shoes and spoke with a "hillbilly" type dialect or accent. Sketches of Morgan's alleged abductor are posted with this summary.
Authorities subsequently learned the truck was caught on a home video by a person who was recording the Little League ball games that night. A still photo of the truck is posted with this summary. It is not possible to see the truck's driver, however.
Two attempted abductions occurred in the general area on June 9 and 10. In Alma, a suspect resembling Morgan's abductor enticed a four-year-old girl into his red truck. The abduction was interrupted and the girl saved when her mother saw them and screamed. In Fort Smith, fifteen miles from Alma, a suspect tried to entice a nine-year-old girl into the men's restroom at a convenience store. He stopped when the girl resisted. Authorities announced that the incidents both involved the same man.
While the individual involved in these incidents has not been confirmed to be the same man sought in Morgan's , he resembled the suspect in her disappearance and so did his truck, and authorities believe the events are linked.
In 2021, authorities named Billy Jack Lincks as a primary person of interest in Morgan's abduction. A photo of Lincks is posted with this summary. He died in prison in 2000, while serving time for attempted child abduction. The attempted child abduction occurred within two months of Morgan's disappearance, and only a few miles away from where she was last seen.
Investigators are trying to learn more about Lincks's life, associates and activities. He was born in Crawford County, Arkansas, served in the U.S. Army during World War II, and worked for Braniff Airlines in Dallas, Texas between 1962 and 1974. He moved to Van Buren, Arkansas in the late 1970s. Investigators believe he had ties to states adjacent to Arkansas, including Tennessee and Oklahoma.
There have been unconfirmed sightings of Morgan throughout recent years, but she has not been located. The suspect and his possible vehicle remain unidentified.
