May 25th is National Missing Children’s Day

To keep alive the memory of  young Etan Patz, who was abducted off the street in NYC on May 25, 1979 while on his way to school, May 25th has been designated as National Missing Children’s Day.  His parents have never given up hope of his return and we join them in this hope. 

Listen to the Crime Prevention 101 radio show I did to commemorate Missing Children’s Day:
