I figured the high count of missing kids in Virginia had very possibly a trivial explanation.

What I don't understand is how former FBI agent Ted Gunderson could claim that 700,000 kids go missing every year. I assumed he meant in the U.S., but could he have meant worldwide? It looks like there can't be over one- or two-thousand kids missing in the U.S. each year.

He meant what he said. Go rewatch the Gunderson vids. He states that missing kid statistics is the only thing they do not track and he was pissed off about that. They dont track them for a reason. I like reality calls but the video proves nothing and i sensed she didnt want to disagree with the guy. Just because he has a degree and made a phone call doesnt prove anything. This so called trustworthy woman on the phone has probably repeated her script line to thousands of enquiries already.

Was Gunderson talking about 700,000 missing kids in the U.S. every year? or in the whole world? or what? And do you know what his evidence was for that? Is it from police reports? - It should be fairly simple for some nonprofit to take a phone survey of the U.S. to determine how many kids are missing now from this year and last year.

He never said but i believe he was implying the USA. I need to go rewatch them myself and reanalyze his words because this man knew way more about this rabbit hole than any of us on voat. The one about the satanists that killed the family really shocked the hell out of me, wouldnt be surprised if they were friends of alefantis.

less than 1% of those kids stay missing for an extended period of time. so he is just saying that's the total number of reports filed in the US annually. but 99+% of the time they are found within a few days. so it's a misleading fact.

reports, depending on agency, claim between 400,000 and 800,000 PER YEAR, in the US only.

Depends on who you listen to, but that number adds up very quickly over time.

I think there are around that many who at some point are reported missing, but the majority return later. It's annoying, but people don't always clarify their information sufficiently, and misimpressions result.
