Time To Change The Reporting Process For Missing Persons

The Palmetto Sleuth Podcast-A True Crime Podcast.

We discuss how bad the reporting system is for missing persons and how it varies from region, to state, to towns just like yours and mine. We also discuss making this issue and the Amber Alert more standardized across our nation and I put out a challenge to my listeners.

Conflict of Interest-State Legislators Who Create Law, Appoint Judges, Practice Law Privately and Other Issues.

We discuss the problem of one of our State Legislators practicing Law privately and representing a subject in a high profile, double murder trial and how it raises questions for citizens, Law Enforcement and Circuit Solicitors Offices. How can this not be a 'Good Ole Boy' system issue along with Judges being appointed by these same legislators. Time for reform and change.

Life Mistakes Do Not Determine A Victims Worth

In our season ending episode we discuss an issue that has been very common place in the cases we have been working. A missing persons questionable background or life mistakes are not a gauge to determine how much that investigation gets the proper attention and service. It is not our place, or anyone else's, to pass judgment on someone especially when they are a victim. We are getting so many stories from families who know and/or have heard their missing loved one and their mistakes and run-ins with Law Enforcement have been a gauge for the level(or lack thereof) of service and effort put into the investigation. Many families can barely get callbacks or information from investigators and this is unprofessional and paints a very bad light on those in Law Enforcement who work hard to do the right thing everyday and by every victim.
