The Missing 411 series began when David Paulides received an anonymous tip from an off-duty park ranger while Paulides was working on some periphery research in a national park. The ranger expressed some concern over the way the National Park Service had been handling some of the missing persons cases in their parks, and he suspected that the National Park Service was not acting in complete integrity with regard to disclosing information about people who go missing in their parks, and asked if Paulides would be willing to research this concern. Paulides obliged, and has since uncovered hundreds of missing persons cases, primarily in national parks and wilderness areas, the characteristics of which fit a specific profile.
The missing people documented in these cases fit the following profile:
Missing people are often found in areas previously searched.
Missing people are documented as having traveled impossible or highly improbable distances for their age and physical endurance level.
Missing disappear in the presence of their dogs. Sometimes, searchers only find the dog.
Trained police bloodhounds, and K-9 units brought to the scene of the disappearance are either unable to pick up a scent trail, or will lie down and not want to track.
Inclement weather such as rainstorms and windstorms strike immediately after these disappearances, severely impeding search efforts.
Missing people disappear in the late afternoon, most commonly between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM
Missing people are found near the perimeter or in the middle of a swamp or briar patch.
Missing people are found in an unconscious, or semiconscious state.
Missing are found with one or more items of their clothing removed, without apparent reason to have done so.
Law enforcement and family members are often quoted stating that they believe kidnapping or foul play has occurred.
