I was cynical last night something just didn’t sit right.

383 children a day are reported missing according to missing persons charities - it’s not viable to have each one covered in the news within a couple of hours is it really ?
I'm not point scoring, trying to educate. Share official police appeals and not others. This is potentially important.
People can claim their child is missing when in reality they are in care for their own safety and at risk if someone tells the biological parent where they are.
People can claim their wife is missing and needs mental health assessment. In reality the female might be fleeing domestic violence, FGM, forced marriage etc.
Let the police decide what needs the public assistance with sharing.
This one at the time was a child being bundled into a van..if that was confirmed by witnesses and the Police then it's worth a mention.
But it wasnt, there was no child, no van and no bundling!This one at the time was a child being bundled into a van..if that was confirmed by witnesses and the Police then it's worth a mention.

Kids go missing all the time. If they put every kid going missing on the news there'd be nothing else on.
Like I said, hysterical overreacti
We’ll have to agree to disagree , the police stated repeatedly there was no missing child reported so it didn’t seem to be real from the start
But it wasnt confirmed.
The police put loads of resources at this based on a Facebook post that went viral. A part of that resource just their keep the public calm. Had the person rang police, reported it and allowed the police to investigate in their own way there wouldnt have been a need for that type of response.
A waste of resources potentially unable to respond to other potential crimes last night.
Even if the story is correct about her child witnessing it her response to it was wrong. She also later posted "I'm absolutely devastated as they nearly took my little girl" - no they didn't as it didn't happen.
It’s getting worse round here hun x

Things like this didn't used to happen.Need to be vigilunt.
There is no such thing as free speech in the UK
Glad the whole thing was a hoax / misunderstanding (maybe) and hope no one that needed the emergency services lastnight was impacted by the incident
That is missing though. Kids at home do the same.kids in local authority care get reported missing if they don’t return home at a certain time ,
That takes up loads of police time ,
They’re not missing , just doing what they want cos they can ,
Yes most are vulnerable in some way but the care homes can’t even lock the doors on a night so the kids just up and fk off

Her name is very much out there along with screenshots of her original post which was then deleted. As you say the police I’m sure will be speaking to her - she’s wasted a lot of resources
Eh? Am I reading that correct? Her kid come in and says someone has been kidnapped and the first thing she does is post on Facebook, somebody else rang police?
