“The overwhelming majority of our missing persons quickly return home or are located,” D.C. Police Chief Peter Newsham said. “So far in 2017, 95 percent of our cases have been closed. In 2016, we had almost 1,000 fewer reports of missing persons than we had in 2012.”
Chanel Dickerson, the new commander of the D.C. police Youth and Family Services Division reiterated that, “So far in 2017, there have been 708 missing persons reports filed at Metropolitan Police Department, of which 674 have been closed, and 34 remain open.”
This does not change the fact these young girls are still missing. And we, yes, we need to find them.
