They're not missing, they just aren't actively being tracked or sought out. The 300K figure comes from unserved Notice to Appear and missed court appearances, not from an actual failure to locate. They don't even have the manpower to go door to door and confirm this is how many are missing.
Their sponsors were vetted prior to any of these children being released into custody, and the vast majority of them ended up with family members anyway. We could very likely track them down if we truly wanted to, but this whole story is a media fabrication so there's no actual need.
So far the "attempts" to locate these children has just been different agencies making phone calls, with some of them going unanswered. And honestly, what kid is going to answer a call from a random unknown number these days? All this generation does is text
