Bone ClonesMuch has happened in the world of replicating skulls and skeletons since Bone Clones, Inc.® began in 1993, but the one thing that hasn’t changed is their commitment to accuracy and quality. In their first year of business they coined the phrase “virtually indistinguishable from the original” and it remains their motto. When they started “cloning from real to resin,” many wondered whether replicas would be accepted because they would not look “real.” They commented that the few zoological replicas available were not convincing and broke easily. That became their first challenge: to make a reproduction so faithful to the original that it was, in fact, difficult to distinguish between them. At the same time, the reproduction must be durable. Many years later they are pleased that Bone Clones® (the brand) has become so well accepted that their replicas are used regularly in a variety of educational disciplines from anthropology to zoology. Bone Clones made their donation to the Crime Museum to honor the memory of Karen Ramey Burns, Forensic Anthropologist and trusted and valuable consultant to Bone Clones in the area of anthropology, human anatomy, identification of human remains, who passed away last January. Karen did so much difficult work in places like Kosovo, Guatemala, Colombia – helping local residents of those and other countries identify their disappeared and deceased. She is greatly missed by her colleagues, and the Crime Museum is thankful for both the donation and Karen’s contribution to her field.

The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) is a private, (501)(c)(3) nonprofit organization which was created in 1984. The mission of the organization is to serve as the nation’s resource on the issues of missing and sexually exploited children. The organization provides information and resources to law enforcement, parents, children including child victims as well as other professionals. In 1984, the U.S. Congress passed the Missing Children’s Assistance Act which established a National Resource Center and Clearinghouse on Missing and Exploited Children. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children was designated to fulfill this role. On June 13, 1984, the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children was opened by President Ronald Reagan in a White House Ceremony. The national 24-hour toll-free missing children’s hotline 1-800-THE-LOST opened as well.Today law enforcement is better trained, better prepared and responds more swiftly and effectively than ever before. There is better law and better technology. Parents are more alert and aware. Yet there are still thousands of children who do not make it home each year, and more who fall victim to sexual exploitation.

PeerlessPeerless® Handcuff Company was established in 1914 in Springfield, Massachusetts. Over ninety years later the classic swing through design of the original Peerless® handcuff continues to be an industry standard. James Milton Gill founded the company after purchasing the patent for a new handcuff design that would revolutionize the law enforcement profession. The inventor was George Carney. Carney’s innovation was the now familiar swing through self locking handcuff. Unlike other restraints of the day, this design was relatively lightweight and easy to carry. The new style handcuff also gave officers a significant advantage since it was easily applied and effectively restrained both hands. The combination of lightweight and ease of use greatly increased officer and public safety. The new Peerless® handcuff quickly became popular, rendering other types of handcuffs obsolete. Over time, and after the patent expired, the design was copied by most other handcuff manufacturers. Now in its fourth generation, Peerless® Handcuff Company remains a family business committed to producing the finest restraints available. We offer a full range of metallic restraint products and accessories. These products are used by law enforcement, correction and military agencies throughout the US and abroad.
