  • Miami Township’s Take Me Home Program for those unable to communicate

    Miami Township’s Take Me Home Program for those unable to communicate

    [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

    Miami Township, Ohio – The Miami Township Police Department is a participant in the national Take Me Home program. This program was originally developed by the Pensacola (Florida) Police Department for people who may have trouble communicating who they are, where they live, or what type of assistance they may need. Once the individual’s Take Me Home record has been located, the first responder has the information at hand to appropriately assist the person.

    If your loved one wanders off and is in the Take Me Home program, their police officers, firefighters, and paramedics will all have immediate access to emergency information for the individual. The first responders will readily have a picture so will know what your loved one looks like while searching for them.

    In the past, any first responder responding to a scene of a missing person has had to coordinate with other first responders to see a picture of who they are looking for. This program gets this information to them quicker, saving precious time and, possibly, making the difference between a good outcome and a bad outcome.

    If the first responders happen to locate someone who is unable to communicate who they are or where they live, they are able to search the program using what demographic information they know (age range, gender, etc.). If the subject is in the system, they will be able to identify them by their picture and will immediately have emergency contact information, a current address, and will be able to return them to you.

    There are very few requirements to have your loved ones entered into the program. The child or adult needs to live in or visit Miami Township, and would have difficulty communicating due to a developmental or cognitive disability while lost or in an emergency situation.

    These individuals tend to be at risk for wandering and may include those with disabilities such as Alzheimer’s, Autism, Dementia, Down Syndrome, Traumatic Brain Injury, etc.

    If you have a loved one who you feel would benefit from being in the Take Me Home program, visit MiamiTwpOH.gov/pd. You will need to fill out a form and submit it with a digital picture. 

    FILL OUT THE ENROLLMENT FORM.

    You may also stop into the Miami Township Police Department to obtain a form.

  • BCI Facial Reconstruction Created of Summit County John Doe

    BCI Facial Reconstruction Created of Summit County John Doe

    Columbus, Ohio – Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, Summit County Medical Examiner Dr. Lisa Kohler, and Twinsburg Police Chief Christopher J. Noga today unveiled the forensic facial reconstruction of a man whose skeletal remains were found more than 20 years ago.

    The clay model was created by a forensic artist with the Attorney General’s Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) in an effort to help Summit County authorities identify the man.

    Summit County John Doe

    “This person is someone’s son, and there is a family out there who loved him.  Now we need the public’s help to find this person’s loved ones some answers,” said Attorney General Mike DeWine. “This facial reconstruction we recently started doing at BCI is a new tool we hope will lead to positively identifying remains in cases like this one.”  

    His remains were found on February 18, 1982 behind a business at 3047 Cannon Road in Twinsburg. He is believed to be an African American male between 20 and 30 years old and approximately 5’6″ tall. Additional details such as weight, hair, or eye color are unknown.

    Items such as hairstyle are the artist’s estimations to complete the reconstruction and should not be considered significant markers for identification. 

    More than 900 law enforcement agencies today received this bulletin in an effort to bring widespread attention to the case.

    “While his remains were discovered in 1982, we believe that his death occurred approximately a year and half before that,” said Chief Christopher J. Noga. “We are really hoping people take a good look at this BCI facial reconstruction.  It may lead to us being able to finally identify him.”  

    BCI’s forensic artist is available to assist local law enforcement with the creation of forensic facial reconstruction models to help identify unidentified skeletal remains. This is the second facial reconstruction created by BCI in northeast Ohio, and the fifth reconstruction statewide. A Greene County Jane Doe was identified as a Florida woman following BCI’s creation of a clay model in December 2016.  A Jane Doe reconstruction and John Doe reconstruction were created for two separate, still-unidentified decedents in Marion County earlier this year, and the clay model of a John Doe in an unsolved Akron investigation was created in July.

    Missing Persons Unit analysts can also provide case review, investigative assistance, link charts, and mapping.

    BCI also offers the Ohio LINK (Linking Individuals Not Known) Program, a free service to police, coroners, and families of missing individuals. The LINK Program was established through the Attorney General’s Office in 1999 to help match DNA taken from family members of missing individuals to DNA from unidentified remains.  Samples of DNA submitted by family members as part of the LINK Program are compared only to DNA samples of unidentified remains submitted through similar programs nationwide. There are currently 194 open cases in the Ohio LINK database.
