Disappearances of Shaina Kirkpatrick and Shausha Henson information

Shaina Ashley Kirkpatrick^[2] (born April 27, 1997)^[3] and her sister, Shausha Latine Henson^[2] (born January 26, 2001),^[4] are two missing American children who vanished under mysterious circumstances in 2001 from Portland, Oregon, United States.^[a][5] The siblings accompanied their mother, Kimyala Henson, on a road trip with Kimyala's childhood friend, Christina Noel Mayer, and Mayer's boyfriend, Frank Lee Oehring. The group had intended to travel to Canada, but first drove to California, where Kimyala obtained her birth certificate.

Two weeks later, Mayer and Oehring were found dead in a murder–suicide at a rest area in Collier County, Florida. Eight days later, Kimyala Henson's body was discovered in a rural area near Pyramid Lake in Nevada; she had been bludgeoned with a hatchet and shot to death. Mayer and Oehring were assumed responsible for Kimyala's murder, and evidence showed that Mayer had assumed Henson's identity, and that she and Oehring had used Kimyala's credit cards to purchase gasoline and food. According to subsequent reports, Oehring allegedly led a Satanist group in Stewartsville, Missouri, of which Mayer was a member.

Despite widespread searches, neither Shaina Kirkpatrick nor Shausha Henson were located, and as of 2023, their whereabouts remain unknown.
