Summary

1 in every 10,000 children reported missing is not found alive. In the cases where the children are murdered 74% of them are females and 74% of them were murdered within the first three hours of the abduction.

But what if you do all of those things. What if your beautiful 12 year old daughter is with her friends, what if she is sleeping in her bedroom. She should be safe right? What kind of maniac would abduct a girl from her bedroom in the middle of a sleepover with her two friends?
