Where's My Kid? Child Abduction and Child Safety

Description

The Susan Smith kidnapping and murder case in South Carolina significantly raised awareness about child abduction. Although most kidnappings are committed by relatives, say the experts, children and their parents have a lot to learn when it comes to keeping themselves safe. This program examines a police investigation into the disappearance of a preschooler and visits a school to test how easily youngsters can be lured by a stranger. The program also visits the National Center for Missing Children, the central agency helping authorities on a nationwide scale with missing children.
