AN ACT relating to missing persons.

This bill would require local law enforcement agencies across Kentucky to have written policies for sharing missing persons case information with the Kentucky State Police, who would then submit that information into a national database for missing and unidentified persons. The goal is to make sure missing persons cases are consistently reported and tracked at the national level. It sets a standard process so that information does not fall through the cracks between local and state agencies. Who it may affect: families of missing persons, local law enforcement agencies, and county and city governments responsible for policy compliance.
