Parents of Runaway Teens

Important things that parents should know and understand if their child has ran away

I am sad to say that there are so many runaways each and every day in Oklahoma and across the country. Police departments do not have the manpower or resources to do a lot more other then take the report get a pick up order issued and get the child entered into NCIC “National Crime Information Center Database”. To try and understand the issue let me explain it this way. We will take Oklahoma City Police for example. If they were to open a true investigation into every runaway reported to them, it would take a division twice the size of their patrol division to do so. The funds are just not there.

However it is very important that children be located as soon as possible and returned home safely due to the fact of the criminal element that is out there preying on kids today including Human Traffickers.

That is why I do what do. When I can afford to take a case I do so at no charge to the family. That is why I try to get the information out to parents that have a child runaway to please as soon as it is reported to the police Please contact us if we can take the case we will at no cost. There are some good organizations out there such as CFSI Center for Search and Investigations it is a National Organization headquartered in Texas that I volunteer with as one of their Oklahoma Investigators. They will provide services at no cost to families of runaways that are ages 11-16. JTB Tactical Response however will also work cases on runaways age 17.
