Gold Alert; create a statewide alert for persons 18 to 23 years of age.

Summary

The bill would let Mississippi law‑enforcement agencies issue a Gold Alert for missing adults 18 to 23 who are believed to be in imminent danger. It requires the local agency to file a report, waive waiting periods, and send details to the state Bureau of Investigation, which then triggers alerts through E‑911, media, highway signs and a 24‑hour hotline. The goal is to speed up searches and protect families.
