Human Trackers - Accelerating the Search for Missing Persons

Murder Files Unsealed

The Pine County Sheriff's Office, equipped with a dedicated Search and Rescue team and certified human trackers, successfully located a missing woman after she became lost while searching for her dogs. The search efforts were hampered by frigid weather conditions, but the human trackers' ability to follow the woman's tracks significantly narrowed the search area, saving valuable time and resources. The collaborative effort involved various agencies, including the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, the State Patrol, and St. Louis County personnel. The successful outcome highlighted the effectiveness of human trackers in search and rescue operations and demonstrated the importance of collaboration between different agencies in critical situations.
