Group Hopes Anniversary Helps Find Missing Kids

A national group that focuses on missing children is hoping the 30th anniversary of the disappearance of two Kentucky kids will help lead to their whereabouts.

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in Alexandria, Virginia has been publicizing the cases of Chipley Sanders and James Bess of Ashland, Kentucky.

Sanders and Bess were each 13 when they disappeared from a group home on Oct. 4, 1984. The organization says the boys ran away and haven’t been heard from since.

Sanders has a pale birthmark on his back over his left shoulder. Bess has grayish blue eyes and he has a scar on the right side of his waist.

The Ashland Police Department also has an open file on the two boys.
