ORLANDO, Fla. — It’s been over a week since six delegates of the unified Haitian Special Olympics soccer team were reported missing in Osceola County and experts say cause for concern about their safety will only grow the longer the investigation drags on.
“Timing means a lot because the first few hours are critical to hopefully locating that person safely and nearby,” Bryanna Fox, an associate professor in the Department of Criminology at the University of South Florida, said. “As time goes on, the odds of something negative happening increases.”
Five days into the investigation, another soccer team member disappeared, reportedly last seen exiting a bus at Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort on Saturday.
