Hi all: I am somewhat new and I would like to know how to properly post about a missing person. I saw it on my Facebook feed. A 33-year-old Australian man, John Regan, visited the U.S. and has not been seen or heard from in weeks. He was supposed to return to Sydney for a family wedding on February 1. His family is concerned because he hasn't touched his bank account for a while and he has no credit card so he would have to be withdrawing funds from the account to travel.
I don't see anything while Googling for news so perhaps it hasn't been deemed newsworthy. Is it proper to post about a missing person just from a post on Facebook? For all I know, he may have been found already. But having two children in their early 30s myself, I can understand the family's anxiety -- I know my kids would never go so long without contacting me especially if they were supposed to be home for a family wedding. If it is proper to post, then which forum? Australian missing persons, even though he is missing in the US or maybe even Canada? Thanks.
