All,
Code Adam was established after Adam Walsh was kidnapped from a Sears
store in South Florida. His body was later found. I am the same age Adam
would be now and frequnetly was at the mall where he was taken. His father
is the host of America's Most Wanted. They also have a missing children
foundation in West Palm Beach to help other parents who go thru this
tragedy.
