I imagine that there is human judgement applied to the decision to make missing-person photos and information public.
Police departments see the impacts of abuse more than almost anyone except those being abused -- they're going to, in general, be very sensitive to enabling an abuser.
- jacobush 7y agoYeah, that sounds reassuring but do you have any basis for this? (More than it should work like this, but I'm jaded.)
- lazyasciiart 7y agoWhy do you imagine that? My impression is that police officers are more likely than the average person to be abusive themselves, and that police departments are still fairly unsympathetic to domestic abuse victims.
