While one young college student has made headlines after she disappeared, dozens of children have gone missing in the same state.

A young University of Iowa student made headlines recently after she disappeared during an evening jog—but she is just one of the dozens of people who have been reported missing in Iowa in the last 10 days, and the overwhelming majority of the disappearances are children.

Mollie Tibbetts, 20, has become the latest face of the missing person database this week after she was last seen going for a jog near her boyfriend’s house on the evening of July 18, and she seemingly vanished. Dozens of people of have pitched in to help search for the college student, and as she appeared to have no motive to flee, and her closest friends and family members have cooperated with police, it raises troubling questions about whether she was abducted.

However, Tibbetts is not alone. According to the Missing Person database published by the Iowa Department of Public Safety, 48 people have gone missing in the last two weeks, and 34 of those people are children.

From the article:

_____

"When a child goes missing, there are a number of fears that run through a parent’s mind, and they often fear that the worst has happened to their loved ones. While individual cases such as the disappearance of Mollie Tibbetts do receive some national media attention, the overwhelming majority are swept under the rug and forgotten."

"It raises the question—what kind of a difference could the media make if it started focusing less on Stormy Daniels and Russia hysteria, and more on the innocent children who go missing every day in the United States?"

tighten up on the Southern border, especially by keeping unattended children in custody, and the Satanic machine has to turn to other sources of supply.

Members of the News Misleadia are responsible for 20% of these child abductions.

They are Satanic child rapists.

And I’m talking PROMINENT members of the News Misleadia.

How many missing are found, how long after they went missing, and under what circumstances?

All these children recently missing, were they from the same local area or scattered across the state?

Other questions may be asked.

Well, you know, they’re just Kids from The Heartland. They’re never going to vote Democrat anyway, so why should the Enemy Media care what happens to them or help to find them?

It would help to know context. Is this normal for Iowa, have any been found etc.

I live on the Ia/Ill boarder. This story was on the local news last night and according to that source, the number of missing is not abnormal.

Most of the children listed are run aways that return within 24 hrs.

The media is not/will not report on that.

Hard to spin a kid returning home as a SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG story to prey on peoples emotions.

At what age are “children” not children any more?
I tend to think of children anywhere from toddlers to 12 to 13 years. I don’t think that is what the article is portraying. 18 years to me is a young adult, or should be.

It would be nice or at least interesting to know more details on the missing persons, how it breaks down to age, ethnicity etc. what may or may not shed some light on it.

If the article can’t simply answer who what when where why and how... If it’s in the article but not the excerpt on FR and the thread poster doesn’t put it in the 1st post, then they must want folks to click on the article I guess. Sure doesn’t lend credence to the seriousness of the title, in my opinion.
