Missing Persons
Our agency has access to the same data bases as the larger agencies
use when attempting to locate missing persons. We have access to
millions of public records, non-published telephone numbers, cellular
numbers, credit reports, bank accounts, etc. (Access to some records
is restricted by law and not always available unless authorized.)
We also have associations with other investigators all around the
country. If we have a possible lead, we can quickly check it out
personally, or with the assistance of a qualified investigator in
other locales.
Child ID Kits / DNA Collections
Children are our most valuable resource. Did you know
that in the United States more than 2100 children are reported missing
each day? Most parents have experienced the panic
of not knowing where their child is, if only for a moment. Children
wander off from amusement parks, department stores, camp grounds,
and such. Thankfully, most of these kids are found within minutes.
But, some are not. Some children are taken by an estranged or divorced
parent who takes the child from the custodial parent. Some children
are lured away by family members, neighbors, or other persons who
have won their confidence. Today, with the popularity of the Internet,
children are enticed to leave home by false promises made by child
molesters and child killers. And, of course, some children run away
for other reasons, becoming vulnerable to those who would use children
for their own selfish fetishes. Caring parents and guardians should
educate their children to protect them from harm. But, regardless
of all our precautions, children will go missing. When they do,
there are precautions that can be undertaken to ensure the likelihood
that they will be quickly identified, then located and safely returned.
It is remarkable how many parents have difficulty providing a valid
physical description of their child, or locating a recent photograph
or other identification. That’s where we can help.
Ross-Graham Investigations, LLC will provide their client with
a Child Identification Kit for each child. They will photograph
the child and obtain rolled fingerprint impressions. They
will collect hair and saliva samples and preserve them for future
DNA comparison if needed. They will provide a booklet (kit) within
which the parent will record the child’s height, weight, hair
and eye color, and other descriptive details. All
of this information can then be maintained by the parent/guardian
in one convenient location, readily available to provide to authorities
if the child should ever go missing.
Many police departments provide this kind of service free of charge
at certain times of the year. And, they should be commended for
the service. But, having to be available at the convenience of the
authorities is not always a viable option. Some parents/guardians
would prefer not to have to stand in line for extended periods waiting
to get their child/children identified. For a reasonable fee, Ross-Graham
Investigations, LLC will perform this service at the convenience
of the client, in their home or other designated location. If this
is your preference, contact us.
