No photos, no reports, no future, no thunderstick, no nothin, Wsup Is Sinkey Missing? Maybe someone should report it.

Missing Persons Reporting Guidelines.
Law enforcement guidelines require that a reporting person must believe that a missing individual is a vulnerable adult or will harm himself or others before a police report can be taken.

Is the individual a vulnerable adult? This could be because of mental capacity, extreme depression, not catching fish, not cashing a check, getting beat by a yankee, or life threatening physical illness.

Is the individual a threat to himself or others? Is there a mental health issue that if not addressed could lead the individual to commit suicide, injure self or injure innocent bystanders?
Some of the reasons that a report shouldn’t be made are:

A missing individual who has chemical dependency issues and has refused to face up to them does not rise to the level of a danger to himself or others by itself. This is a choice the individual has made and is free to make even if it is ruining his life.
When there is history of disappearing and returning, no report should be made. If this person is acting on his own free will, it does not rise to the level of a police report. People have the right to direct their own lives in a manner they choose. There may be consequences for their actions but they will have to deal with that.

No signs of foul play. Adults are free to roam about as they please.
As a concerned reporting person, it is important to understand what really happens after the missing person report is filed:

The police department will determine if the individual truly is a threat to himself or others or is a vulnerable adult. If he is, the person’s name can be entered into the national database.
Our department is not going to actively search for the individual unless there is some extreme circumstance that dictates a search. This usually involves some physical evidence of foul play, etc.
If a police officer comes upon the missing person in the course of his normal duty, the officer cannot arrest this individual as no crime has been committed. You will receive a call and be told where the individual is and his status. If this individual is having a mental health emergency, he will be placed on a 72 hour police hold at a mental health facility. If he is overly intoxicated, he maybe taken to a detox facility for detoxification. At this time, the individual becomes the reporting person’s responsibility.

Too funny...

Not sure what's goin on with him or where he has been. Talked to him last week and started discussing getting some rock hauled to my house to make a new drive for the horse trailer and he had to take a call. Never heard back from him after that.
Thank you Lord for my family and the waters I get to fish
