Twenty-five families gathered over the weekend for the first annual ”Missing In Michigan” day. The event was organized by the state police and the goal was to help families in Michigan who are searching for missing friends and family members. Many families took time to make sure all of the information on their missing loved one was up-to-date in all databases and participants were also able to provide their own DNA samples.
