Once an assessment of the missing person is completed and the appropriate law enforcement responses have been made, if the person, juvenile or adult, has not been located, then a report should be forwarded to VICAP for inclusion in the database. In 1985, Detective David Reichert of the King County, Washington, Sheriff’s Office and a member of the Green River Task Force said that once the offender’s victim selection preferences were identified, the task force paid particular attention to other missing persons with the same characteristics. The task force assembled as much information as possible about missing persons, including individual medical information, dental charts, and X-rays. When victims of the Green River Killer were discovered, their remains were typically little more than skeletons. However, task force preparation paid off, and recovered remains were compared with missing person reports, with identification achieved in only a day or two.
