ABOUT THOMAS LAUTH

Thomas Lauth, has 17 years experience in missing persons investigations. That experience includes locating missing children, runaway teens as well as missing adults where foul play is suspected or mental illness is an issue. Mr. Lauth has also worked extensively on cases involving abduction. Over the years, experience has taught many lessons in the location of missing persons. Outside of a traditional law enforcement approach, a private investigator can pursue many alternative avenues that yield concrete results. First of all, a private investigator that works exclusively on missing adults, runaway teens and abducted children has much more time to dedicate toward the case. County, city and state police agencies as well as the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) have enormous caseloads while manpower and resources are spread thin. A private investigator answers to the parents of a runaway or abducted child, or whoever retains his services. Law enforcement agencies many times cannot pursue every avenue available to locate a missing loved one.

A professional missing persons private investigator will engage the family in the search. Encouraging relatives, mothers and fathers to get out in the neighborhoods and utilize the public resources that are available. Thomas Lauth will aggressively pursue media exposure similar to the manner that was used in recent high profile disappearances as seen on CNN, NBC, 48 Hours, Prime Time Live and Inside Edition as well as local television and print media for the case to reach public eyes and ears increasing the chances of locating and recovering the missing adult or child. In addition, Thomas Lauth works closely with the National Center for Missing Adults in Phoenix, Arizona, where law enforcement, the media, and families can connect and share information and leads. The National Center for Missing Adults increases awareness of missing persons as well as offers wonderful resources for the family of a missing adult. The Center can also connect families with reputable resources. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in Washington, D.C. operates similarly for runaway teens and abducted children.

Thomas Lauth approaches a missing adult case proactively where law enforcement approaches such a case reactively. The only time law enforcement works proactively is when media attention is drawn to a disappearance, abduction, or kidnapping where foul play is involved. Otherwise, police agencies will not search for a missing adult unless they come across him or her during routine duty or as the result of a tip or call. They can only react to the information they receive.

Thomas Lauth works nationally and will travel to all states including Canada and Mexico and will travel overseas as well should the case require it. A few of the cities that Mr. Lauth has traveled to include Boston, Massachusetts; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Atlanta, Georgia; New York City, New York; Denver, Colorado; Phoenix, Arizona; San Francisco, California; Wichita, Kansas; Las Vegas, Nevada; Baltimore, Maryland; Miami, Florida; Houston, Texas; Chicago, Illinois; Oakland, California; Nashville, Tennessee; Louisville, Kentucky; Los Angeles, San Diego, California; Greenville, North Carolina and Brownsville, Texas on missing persons cases over the past twenty years. There are few experts in this field outside of law enforcement who work every day in locating missing persons.
