Hundreds of Massachusetts law enforcement officers took part in a training exercise Tuesday as part of a new effort to improve searches for missing people and investigations into unidentified human remains.
As of March 1, Massachusetts authorities have 1,908 missing person cases and 19 cases of unidentified human remains on file with the FBI; Gov. Maura Healey proposes that $300,000 be committed to the budget for the establishment of a Missing and Unidentified Persons Coordination Unit
"Our first budget proposes funding to establish a statewide resource to enhance coordination and underscores our commitment to strong state and local partnership," Healey said in a statement."Trainings will offer vital insights into the technology, forensic services, and investigative supports that help to improve investigations, resolve cases and provide families and communities with the answers they desperately need.
"This initiative is important for local law enforcement and the communities they serve as it provides the resources needed to assist these complex investigations and help reunite missing people with their loved ones," added Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll."This collaborative partnership is an important step toward providing the knowledge and tools required to enhance investigative standards and keep our communities safe.
