Missing location (approx) :
Bremerton, Washington
Missing classification : Endangered Missing
Gender : Male
Ethnicity :
Asian
DOB : 07/21/1992 (29)
Age at the time of disappearance: 19 years old
Height / Weight : 5'10 - 5'11, 116 pounds
Description, clothing, jewerly and more : A white sweater, blue jeans, sneakers, a black baseball cap and a red cross necklace. Carrying a black backpack with pink squares.
Medical conditions : Scott's jaw was broken on the left side and wired shut at the time of his disappearance. He was taking opiate pain medications and under follow-up care from his surgery. He may be in need of medical attention.
Distinguishing characteristics, birthmarks, tattoos
: Asian male. Black hair, brown eyes. Scott has a surgical scar on the left side of his face and a scar under his chin. He may wear eyeglasses.
Information on the case from local sources, may or may not be correct : Scott was last seen drinking with friends at Evergreen-Rotary Park, about three blocks from Warren Avenue, in Bremerton, Washington at 10:00 p.m. on October 27, 2011. He never showed up for his next doctor's appointment and has never been heard from again.
Although Scott has dropped out of sight before for a few days at a time, he's never been gone for this long, and it's uncharacteristic of him to be out of touch with his loved ones. He normally used his Facebook account every day, but hasn't accessed it since October 26, and he hasn't used his cellular phone since the evening of his disappearance.
Scott had plans to join the Navy after he finished school. Because his disappearance is out of character, his family is concerned for his safety. His case remains unsolved.

Missing Children�s Statistics
One Missing Child Is One Too Many
The lack of a common definition of �missing child,� and a common response to the issue, results in few reliable statistics on the scope of the problem around the world.
Even with this challenge, we know that:
In Australia, an estimated 20,000 children are reported missing every year.
Australian Federal Police, National Coordination Centre.
In Canada, an estimated 45,288 children are reported missing each year.

This, however, is only a snapshot of the problem. In many countries, statistics on missing children are not even available; and, unfortunately, even available statistics may be inaccurate due to: under-reporting/under-recognition; inflation; incorrect database entry of case information; and deletion of records once a case is closed.
The lack of numbers, and the discrepancy in the numbers that do exist, is one of the key reasons why ICMEC developed and advocates for the Model Missing Child Framework, which assists countries with building strong, well-rounded national responses, and facilitates more efficient investigations, management, and resolution of missing children cases.
We firmly believe that one missing child is one too many, and we are committed to improving the global understanding of and response to missing and abducted children.
Here is a look at missing children in the United States. There are several different types of missing children: runaways, family abductions, lost or �thrown away� and non-family abductions. Advances in technology, communications through public alerts and greater cooperation from law enforcement have facilitated the recovery process.
Statistics
According to the FBI�s National Crime Information Center (NCIC) Missing Person File, there are 89,637 active missing person records, of which juveniles under the age of 18 account for 30,396 (34%) of the records. (as of December 31, 2020)
AMBER Alert
�AMBER (America�s Missing: Broadcast Emergency Response) Alerts are emergency messages broadcast when a law enforcement agency determines that a child has been abducted and is in imminent danger. The broadcasts include information about the child and the abductor, including physical descriptions as well as information about the abductor�s vehicle - which could lead to the child�s recovery.�
The AMBER Alert system began in 1996 and was named in honor of Amber Hagerman, a 9-year-old who was abducted in Arlington, Texas, and murdered.
All 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands have AMBER Alert plans in place to help find missing children in danger.
As of December 2020, the AMBER Alert program has been credited with the safe recovery of 1029 children..
