Bill Summary
ENDANGERED MISSING PERSON ALERT -- Adds to existing law to establish endangered missing person alerts and to provide criteria for activation of an alert.
AI Summary
This bill establishes an "Endangered Missing Person Alert" system in Idaho, to be developed and implemented by the Idaho State Police missing person clearinghouse. The system allows for voluntary cooperation between broadcasters, cable systems, and law enforcement agencies to enhance the public's ability to assist in recovering missing and endangered persons. The bill outlines the criteria for issuing an Endangered Missing Person Alert, including that the missing person must be reported to law enforcement, be a resident of Idaho, and be incapable of returning home without assistance due to factors like mental illness, disability, or other circumstances. The law enforcement agency must verify the criteria before requesting the alert, which will be distributed based on the last known location of the missing person. The alert will be terminated when the person is located or the alert is no longer effective.
