b"Within a year of the abduction and murder of 9-year-old Amber Hagerman, several vastly differing factors came together to create the Amber Plan, known today as the Amber Alert. From the idea of a concerned parent who mourned for Amber\\u2019s relatives to Amber\\u2019s family, and then from an association of radio managers to state and local authorities, the little girl\\u2019s long-lasting legacy came to fruition and subsequently saved many lives. Though the Amber Plan went off without a hitch in many regards, it got off to a rocky start in others. Considering both the good and bad, perhaps, and even when the rules were bent or broken, helped lead to the program's great successes. This is the story of the Amber Plan, the Amber Alert.
