Hi Kimster i'm new to this web-site, My back ground is a retired lawman with22 years in job, but in a rural area and we still have our runaways mostly females and most did not run far nor leave the county some were found and returned home and other were found dead and by the hand or hands of another I know two of them one was 16 years old died in 1989 and the other one was 14 years old and she died in 1990. Had a suspect an a good one and some the investigation stop after about 6 months and for over 20 years I can not get the local new media to run follow up stores on eather girl there are a lot of people who needs to step up to the plate if the obduction and murders of childern cops can not do it alone parents can not do it alone and not only that but the care factor is gone.
And another point this is looked at like drug dealing it's a business and it's on the up swing . you had a good article.
