In recognition of Missing and Unidentified Persons month, the Special Victims Bureau (SVB) Missing Persons Squad (MPS) will be hosting a Missing Persons community event in partnership with the Miami-Dade County Medical Examiner Department (ME).
The event aims to provide a process whereby citizens can meet with various law enforcement agencies and ME personnel to view composite sketches of unidentified human remains, submit biometric data, and provide new investigative information lacking in current open missing person cases.
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NAMUS), Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), Florida International University (FIU), and various municipal police agencies throughout Miami-Dade County will also be participating in this event.
