The vast majority of the cases in our judgment are what we would call 'fractured families,'

We got a call from parents of a 7-year-old separated from her mother in the storm. We put the photos on the air and on our Web site, and the child's grandmother called and said, I have her.' That is a pretty good illustration of the kind of situation we're seeing.

We're working on these one case at a time, doing old-fashioned gumshoe detective work. Every report we get, we have to treat as if it's potentially serious and the child is at risk.

This is more about reunification and repairing. But it's extremely urgent. If you're separated from your child in a supermarket or department store for 10 minutes, it's something you never forget. Here are parents who are separated from their children for three weeks and don't know where they are.

This is a massive problem, and the numbers are growing, ... We know there will not be a positive ending in some of these cases. We hope the number is as small as possible. Meanwhile, we're working under the assumption that these children are out there.

So many children in this situation were not able to tell us or social services who they are and where they lived and what their mom's name was.

[The Center for Missing and Exploited Children] has learned a lot from the Katrina experience, ... We have people on the ground. We have offered our center and resources to the state of Texas ... There's a good clearinghouse in Austin (and) we have offered to assist them in any way we can...

We recommend that parents take this seriously.

News directors are first and foremost looking for news, ... So if you look at the recent cases that have gotten so much attention ... those children disappeared from their homes and their own beds. It is a scenario that absolutely terrifies every parent. Thus, it's news.

[The trafficking in children for sex was once thought to be a problem beyond America's borders. But the FBI and the Justice Department have now started focusing intently on the issue--and what they've found is shocking. Thousands of young girls and boys are falling victim to violent pimps, who move them from state to state, which makes it a federal matter. The younger they are, the more they're worth on the street.] There is a greater and greater demand for younger and younger kids, ... America doesn't look. People are shocked and horrified when they hear these girls' stories. They say, 'That doesn't happen here. It happens in Thailand. Or the Philippines.' But once you start shining a light on it, you find it everywhere.

Some ? a very small percentage, we believe ? did not survive the storm. A larger number are kids who are probably with mom or dad or grandma, but other family members don't know where they are. We think they're safe, they just haven't been in touch with the rest of the family yet.

We're trying to mobilize the financial industry to choke off the money.

There is a greater and greater demand for younger and younger kids. America doesn't look. People are shocked and horrified when they hear these girls' stories. They say, 'That doesn't happen here. It happens in Thailand. Or the Philippines.' But once you start shining a light on it, you find it everywhere.

So much of what we've done started in Louisville.

I am hyper about not using numbers that exaggerate and inflame. Our message is we don't want you to live in fear … but you have to be alert and aware.
