Maine Mother's Unrelenting Search for Missing Son Continues

As active missing persons cases rise in the U.S., families like Tammy Lacher Scully's are left to navigate the search for their loved ones.

Tammy Lacher Scully continues her search for her son, Graham Lacher, who disappeared 18 months ago from a psychiatric hospital in Bangor, Maine.
The number of active missing persons cases in the United States has increased to 97,000 in 2022 from 85,500 in 2018, with a rise in the number of vulnerable people disappearing.
Search efforts by police for missing adults are typically short-lived, leaving family members like Scully to continue the search.
Scully has expanded her search to Boston, visiting shelters and handing out flyers, and has sent 1,000 postcards to police departments, legislators, and health clinics across Maine.
Scully has doubled the reward for information leading to her son's safe return to $10,000, following a donation from a friend.
