When Haley Faith Wilson ran away from home one day after Christmas, her father was heartbroken. Instead of hiding or not making his voice heard, he jumped onto social media and then created this video. Often times, especially in missing person investigations, parents aren’t sure what to do. This was a compelling, creative example of what parents can do if this happens to them.

Crimefighting App Launched At University, Created By Professor and Team
Friday, September 16th, 2011
Virtual crimefighting is now a reality on one college campus. Professor Ashok Agrawala and his team on the University of Maryland campus designed and launched a new crime tool to help instantly fight and prevent crime on the university grounds. It is a smartphone app called M-Urgency that can transmit personal information and location directly to dispatchers by recording audio and video. This method efficiency allows dispatchers to relay the information to officers on the ground.
All students have to do is subscribe to M-Urgency through their phone using their student ID. If they find themselves in a emergency situation, all they have to do is hit the button. The best part is the video transmitted will be recorded and can be used in a court of law if needed.
Developers are hoping to expand their services to other universities in the future and other phone services too.
Right now, the services works on all Android phones with hopefully future development for iPhones.

NATIONAL CENTER SAFETY: NSTeens for TWEENS
Wednesday, July 7th, 2010
1 in 7 kids are solicited for sex online. This alarming statistic was recently released from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. The survey says 1 in 33 kids receive aggressive online solicitations to meet in person and 34% of kids say they’ve had communication with people they don’t know. NCMEC maintains a proactive approach to protect children and teens and now they have two brand new items for children between the ages of 8 and 12. The NSTeen site now has animated video and educational games for children in this age range. “Cyberbully Zombies Attack” and “Mike-tosis” both target information about technology, safety and cyber bullying prevention. Although these sites are for “tweens,” parents and teachers are encouraged to log on and educate themselves on the dangers lurking online for kids. The content is available in English and in Spanish. NSTeen is an entity of the main hub of NetSmartz.
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children says its CyberTipline has handled more than 903,240 calls of child sexual exploitation. According to a press release on their site, the Child Victim Identification Program has reviewed and analyzed more than 34 million pornographic images.
Body burned beyond recognition
Friday, January 8th, 2010
- Paula Sladewski
PAULA SLADEWSKI MURDERED
Investigators are putting the pieces together and trying to figure out who would set Paula Sladewski on fire and then throw her in a trash dumpster.
Cops say Paula’s body was “burned beyond recognition” and firefighters were called to put out the flames at a dumpster fire. Her body was identified a few days later through dental records. Paula is originally from Michigan, and in 2003 she appeared in a video for Playboy. At this time, investigators are calling her boyfriend a “person of interest.”
Police know the couple arrived in Miami on New Year’s Eve with friends, they watched Lady GaGa perform, and had plans to say in Miami throughout the weekend. On January 2, 2009, that Saturday night, the couple went to Club Space – until they got into an argument at 7 a.m. Sunday morning and split up. That’s when cops say she was last seen.
