Child Abduction - Amber Alert flac album

An amber alert (also AMBER alert) or a child abduction emergency alert (SAME code: CAE) is a message distributed by a child abduction alert system to ask the public for help in finding abducted children. It originated in the United States in 1996. AMBER is officially an acronym for America's Missing: Broadcast Emergency Response, but that is a contrived acronym, originally named after Amber Hagerman, a 9-year-old abducted and murdered in Arlington, Texas, in 1996.

AMBER plans require law enforcement to confirm an abduction prior to issuing an alert. This is essential when determining the level of risk to the child. Clearly, stranger abductions are the most dangerous for children and thus are primary to the mission of an AMBER Alert. To allow activations in the absence of significant information that an abduction has occurred could lead to abuse of the system and ultimately weaken its effectiveness. At the same time, each case must be appraised on its own merits and a judgment call made quickly.
