The National Crime Information Center's (NCIC's) Missing Person File was implemented in 1975. Records in the Missing Person
File are retained indefinitely, until the individual is located, or the record is canceled by the entering agency. The Missing
Person File contains records for missing who
* have a proven physical or mental disability (Disability - EMD), * are missing under circumstances indicating that they
may be in physical danger (Endangered - EME), * are missing after a catastrophe (Catastrophe Victim - EMV), * are missing
under circumstances indicating their disappearance may not have been voluntary (Involuntary - EMI), * are under the age of
21 and do not meet the above criteria (Juvenile - EMJ), or * are 21 and older and do not meet any of the above criteria but
for whom there is a reasonable concern for their safety (Other - EMO).
As of December 31, 2006, there were 110,484 active missing person records in the NCIC. Juveniles under the age of 18 account
for 58,763 (53.18 %) of the records and 12,657 (11.46 %) were for juveniles between the ages of 18 and 20. *
During 2006, 836,131 missing person records were entered into the NCIC, an increase of 0.19 % from the 834,536 entered
in 2005. Missing Person records cleared or canceled during the same period totaled 851,940. Reasons for these removals include:
a law enforcement agency located the subject, the individual returned home, or the record had to be removed by the entering
agency due to a determination that the record is invalid.
*This fulfills requirements as set forth in Public Law 101-647, 104 statute 4967, Crime Control Act of 1990 stating the
Attorney General is to publish a statistical summary of reports of missing children. This act was modified April 7, 2003,
by "Suzanne's Law" changing the definition of a missing person to be under 21 years of age. [ref. 42 USC 5779(c)]
