these statistics are from an american website but the survival timeline is probably universal...
The first hour is the most critical. If a child is truly abducted and not a runaway, if they are NOT found within that hour the chances of them being found, or found alive diminishes with each passing hour. After 72-hours most law enforcement personnel hope for the best, but expect the worst.
