FORT WORTH -- NamUs is trying to reach even more families impacted by the disappearance of a missing loved one.
NamUs, also known as the National Missing and Unidentified Person system is a database not only for law enforcement, but it's also free to the public.
NamUs provides data management, analytical support, and forensic resources for missing and unidentified cases.
"We have had family members come into the NamUs data base and run searches that have resolved their own cases, said BJ Spamer, Director of Forensic and Analytical Services for NamUs at the University of NorthTexas Health Science Center in Fort Worth.
You can search a missing person, the case information, circumstances and descriptions. "We really want to reach families because we need them to participate in the search, " Spamer went on to say.
Sometimes the smallest piece of information entered into the database could make a match. "We have had cases connected by something as simple as a duffle bag, or a set of car keys."
Currently there are more than 50 missing people from Bexar County in the database as well as 26 others who are unidentified.
