Do you accept direct case submissions from law enforcement officials?

While the MPCCN no longer accepts case submissions from the general public, cases are accepted from law enforcement agencies. E-mail the case details and a photo (JPEG, GIF or BMP format) of the missing person and I will add the profile as soon as possible.

Where do you locate the cases featured on the MPCCN?

Cases are located from various online databases, such as The National Center For Missing and Exploited Children. Numerous law enforcement agencies also profile local missing persons. Additional case details are occasionally found in online newspaper archives. All of the information sources are hyperlinked at the bottom of every MPCCN case file.

Are all closed cases featured in the resolved section?

No.

Please report any closed cases to me and I will respect the wishes of the victim and / or law enforcement. Many resolved cases are not included in the database at the request of the authorities or the individual.

Are you a private investigator?

No.

As stated elsewhere on the site, I only maintain the MPCCN as an online database. I am not paid for my efforts.
