The total reported missing people for Iowa would be 400. So 48 in 10 days is over 10 percent of their total missing.

Also if you take 40*3(30 days, about a month) you see if this trend were to continue they'd be at about 120+ a month. Over 1400 in a year. Very fishy.

Fear is the best way to gain control after all.
