Information on the case from local sources, may or may not be correct : Morris was last seen at his home on Thomas Street in Heflin, Alabama on November 22, 1991. His mother had just had surgery on her knee, so he and his younger sister were helping her out. A red sports car pulled up as Morris's sister was cooking dinner. He went inside and spoke to the driver, a woman he knew. His mother had told him to stay away from the woman. When he came back inside, he said his older brother had sent the woman to get him. Morris's mother gave him permission to leave. He has never been heard from again. When his older brother came to the house later that evening, Morris's sister asked where Morris was. It turned out his brother didn't know, and hadn't sent anyone to come and get him. Morris was a high school senior at the time of his disappearance and was known for being a good football player. His dream was to attend the University of Alabama on a football scholarship and eventually play professional football, like his uncle Ike Grant, who played for the New York Jets. However, his younger sister stated he'd become involved with drugs by the time of his disappearance. He and his sister were close, but he wouldn't talk to her about it. Morris's case remains unsolved and foul play is suspected.

A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2�5% of missing children in Europe. By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends. Several organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and imAge at the time of disappearance: s of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.
