Description

Every year, more than 600,000 people are reported missing, and hundreds of human remains go unidentified. Two primary federal databases supported by the Department of Justice (DOJ) -- the FBIäó»s National Crime Information Center (NCIC) and the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs) -- contain data related to missing and unidentified persons to help solve these cases. NCIC contains criminal justice information accessed by authorized agencies to assist with daily investigations. NamUs information can be used by law enforcement, medical examiners, coroners, and the general public to help with long-term missing and unidentified persons cases. This report describes the access to and use of missing and unidentified persons information contained in NCIC and NamUs, and the extent to which there are opportunities to improve the use of this information. Table and figures. This is a print on demand report.
