When someone is missing suspected murdered the focus often centres on the investigation and the ways in which police and the community can help to locate the missing person. Although this may be the primary concern, often the emotional and practical needs of those left behind are put aside.
The emotional impact on families and friends of missing persons can be varied and may include feelings of fear, anger, guilt, blame, frustration, ambiguity and isolation. Along with the emotional aspects of having someone missing, due to possible homicide, there may also be family financial and legal matters to be addressed.
