This episode explores the origins and impact of the AMBER Alert system through the tragic story that inspired it. We begin with the case of Amber Hagerman, whose abduction and murder led to the creation of one of the most recognizable child‑safety alerts in the world. The episode traces how the AMBER Alert system was developed, how it works, and why it matters, while also examining other high‑profile missing child cases, including Rae Leigh Bradbury and Madeleine McCann. Through these stories, the podcast reflects on loss, public response, and the ongoing efforts to protect children and bring them home.
