A new Louisiana law, Bryan's Call, now adds a special designation to existing missing person alerts when that individual has a qualifying cognitive disability, and one local mother says it could save lives. Watch David Hamilton's full story:
"Last year, 12 year old Brian Vasquez climbed out of his bedroom window. Vasquez was later found dead, drowned with blunt trauma consistent with an alligator attack. His death inspired Brian's call, a new designation added to Louisiana's missing person alert system for children and adults with cognitive disabilities. The call is so important because the more people out there, because if Magnolia is running, and I'm running after her, even David James, they turn around, they laugh and smile. They're not going to stop if I'm calling their name. So the more people out there, the more people are aware of where they could be in the vicinity, the more people are looking, it helps us get these kids home safe."
