When a child with autism goes missing, every second matters. But what happens when social media turns concerned citizens into investigators, judges, and juries?In Episode 18 of Jimmy and Zach — Where Human Meets AI, we examine three missing-child cases involving autism, including six-year-old Roman Heilman in Kentucky and fourteen-year-old Avonte Oquendo in New York City.We discuss the unique dangers of wandering, the challenges faced by families and law enforcement, school safety, and the responsibilities of child protective services.Drawing on Jimmy's eight years in law enforcement, we explore the difference between legitimate concerns and unverified accusations.Social media can help bring missing children home, but it can also destroy reputations when rumors spread faster than facts.Three children. Three families. One important question: When does public concern become a social media trial?A serious conversation about autism, missing children, accountability, compassion, and protecting those who cannot always protect themselves.Two perspectives, one search for the truth.Jimmy and Zach — Where Human Meets AI
