Does anyone know what information you need to enter a case on NamUs? I tried to enter one but did not have the police case number and it was denied. I filled out everything that was a required field and all the information that I had so I don't know what else to do. Maybe if someone here knows how to enter one they could submit it for me?
It should be prompting you (in red) with what you're missing. I've entered quite a few and have never needed the police case number. That will get filled in when NamUs validates the info with LE.
If you skipped over date of birth, you later have to put in an age when missing.
If memory serves, you have to enter height and weight. If you don't know, guess. NamUs will verify with LE.
There's now a "missing from Tribal Lands" that needs a yes or no or the case will not submit.
You have to put in the police agency with address and phone number. A good many are already in there and you choose the correct one, but if it's not on the list, you have to manually enter the info.
What option did you choose for Relationship to Missing? Family would choose Family Member. I always choose "Concerned Citizen".
Don't forget the photo (if there is one). It's not required but it's easy to forget to enter it.
