January 2008 -- Missing & Unidentified
Current as of the January 31, 2008 indexing
According to the FBI-NCIC there are 102,133 Missing Persons listed in their system -- children and adult.
There are 7,011 Unidentified Persons listed their system -- children and adult.
Footnote
The numbers fluctuate due to newly entered cases and removal of resolved cases.
A spike/ drop in numbers does not necessarily mean an increase in missing and unidentified, it can means that more cases are being entered/ removed into the system.
Older cases are often added to the NCIC years after the actual event initially took place.
Often cases are often purged and / or expire.
