Three children, three unexplained fates: David Lück, 11 months old. Emin Önen, 10 years old. Leonie Gritzka, 15 years old. Three children who disappeared at different times and in different places in North Rhine-Westphalia – and never reappeared. To this day, there is no certainty about what happened to them. In April 1990, David Lück and his mother Henriette disappeared after a walk in Cologne. Both are still missing today. Leonie Gritzka from Remscheid was last seen on July 22, 2016. The investigation remains with the Wuppertal police. Emin Önen disappeared in Kerpen-Buir. On May 16, 1993, he left his parents' home to go to a friend's house – but never returned. In this episode, Ida speaks with Emin's family about the loss and the uncertainty as to whether Emin is still alive. Chief Inspector Torben Konrad also explains how the police handle cases of missing children. Information can be submitted via this free police hotline: 0800 6 888 000 The 116 000 hotline is available to parents or caregivers who are missing a child or young person, who suspect child abduction or kidnapping, or to children and young people themselves who, for example, have run away from home and are at a loss. ___ Table of Contents 00:00-01:01 Intro 01:02-02:02 Three Missing Persons Cases 02:03-06:28 The Emin Önen Case 06:29-08:38 Police Work in Missing Persons Cases 08:39-09:41 Challenges for the Police 09:42-11:58 The David Lück Case 11:59-14:07 The Friend 14:08-15:08 Hope for Emin? 15:09-17:16 The pain of the relatives 17:17-17:49 Status of the investigation 17:50-19:34 The Leonie Gritzka case 19:35-20:40 Exchange between police and relatives 20:41-21:49 Dealing with long-term missing persons cases 21:50-24:28 Emin's family hopes 24:29-24:49 Conclusion ___ Would you like to know more about police work with missing children?

It is precisely because of this experience that I consider it important today as a journalist to investigate such trials, explain the background, and give those involved a voice outside the courtroom if they wish. I find it particularly fascinating to shed light on the differences between legal adjudication and perceived justice. That's why I've been a writer on the MordOrte team for some time now – and now also in front of the camera. ___ Imprint: http://wdr.de/k/Impressum Privacy Policy: http://www.wdr.de/k/datenschutz Produced with ❤ and your broadcasting fee. #WDRLokalzeit
