They are the lost souls of New York City.
Three thousand, eight hundred twenty-one people are listed as missing across the state. In the city alone, somebody vanishes every 83 minutes.
Many are found hours or days later. But others are never seen or heard from again.
The startling figures, compiled by the FBI's National Crime Information Center, include unsolved cases stretching back decades.
Scores of the missing are suspected murder victims while others are feared abducted.
Some are believed to have planned their own disappearance, and many others are children who have been whisked off by one of their parents without permission.
All have one thing in common: They cannot be found.
Camden Sylvia and her boyfriend left their downtown Manhattan apartment for an evening jog on Nov. 7, 1997. They never returned.
Camden Syliva, 36, and Michael Sullivan, 54, were known to have been having problems with the landlord of their Pearl St. loft at the time of their disappearance.
On July 15, 1977, Audrey got dressed and said she was walking one block to buy cigarettes. She never came back.
Audrey was a schizophrenic who had been hospitalized a number of times, though Nerenberg said she was medicated and capable of walking to the store alone.
Kristine Kupka, 28, was five months pregnant when she left her apartment in Kensington, Brooklyn, on Oct. 24, 1998.
She was last seen with the baby's father, one of her professors at Baruch College. He was married, had made it clear that he did not want the child - and remains a major suspect in her disappearance.
