Journal #32 (Missing in a big world)
A missing 13 year old teenager was reported missing November 20, 2007. I read that mesa police department is asking for help from the public to find Brittnee M. Plant. It's kind of weird to think about someone being missing. Because you know for a fact that they are somewhere on this earth. But its even weirder and harder to think that someone, anyone can really end up missing. I always thought about life as being real. And it still is but in a different way. Almost like we're now live our lives like a video game. And in these games anything can happen.

Hi Phylicia,
I saw your Blog entry on missing people. Here is some recent information for you to consider.
"By the end of 2005, there were 109,531 active missing person records according to the US Department of Justice. Children under the age of 18 account for 58,081 (53.03%) of the records and 11,868 (10.84%) were for young adults between the ages of 18 and 20.[1]
During 2005, 834,536 entries were made into the National Crime Information Center's missing person file, which was an increase of 0.51% from the 830,325 entered in 2004. Missing Person records that were cleared or canceled during the same period totaled 844,838. The 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"
If you would like to learn more about missing people in general as well as a number of individual cases you can do so by going to my MySpace page at URL: www.MySpace.com/maelstrom5
