Description
Throughout our South Australia season, we’ve unintentionally covered a number of cases that have involved missing persons. Approximately 38,000 people are reported missing in Australia each year, and 99.5% of those that are reported missing are located. There are currently 1600 long-term missing persons cases in Australia.
In this Very Special Episode, we want to shine a light on some of these long-term missing cases in true MITLOO fashion – one per each state in Australia. We also discuss what to do if you think someone is missing, how to submit a tip to police, and what to do if you have information about a missing person. If there’s one takeaway from this episode, it’s this: DO NOT WAIT 24 HOURS TO REPORT SOMEONE MISSING. You won’t get in trouble if you report someone missing and they are found straight away. Better to be safe than sorry.
Trigger warnings: murder, sexual violence, assault.
