Video: How Private Investigators Find Missing Persons
In this video, licensed Los Angeles private investigator Ken Childs explains how missing person investigations are conducted and why “boots on the ground” investigative work is often the most effective way to locate someone.
Missing persons investigations typically involve interviewing witnesses, canvassing neighborhoods, and gathering information from people who may have seen or interacted with the missing individual. By developing leads and focusing on locations where the person was last seen, investigators can often identify where a missing loved one may be staying or traveling.
Once a missing person is located, families can decide whether investigators should make contact directly or simply confirm the individual’s location while they determine their next steps.

Can a private investigator find a missing or homeless person in LA? Yes!
While you might think that law enforcement would be the best option to find a missing or homeless person, the reality is that their volume of calls for “real crime” limit their ability to even look into your request, and if they do, their approach is very hands off. A Los Angeles private investigator will know the city, its communities, and the surrounding areas well enough to efficiently track down and contact a missing person faster than any other option.
