Murdered &Missing Cherokee People

The Cherokee Nation Marshal Service is asking the public for assistance in locating Logan Jackson, a 15-year-old Cherokee teenager reported missing on Friday.

A federally mandated report on missing and murdered Indigenous people was quietly removed from the U.S. Department of Justice website nearly 300 days ago, and lawmakers who authored the law that created it say its disappearance undermines critical public-safety work in Indian Country.

Zachary was last seen in Tulsa OK on 10/23/2025 near the Day Center. Please call Muskogee Creek Nation Lighthorse at 918 732-7800

lease help locate Daniel Mannon, a 15-year-old Cherokee Nation citizen. Daniel was last seen on September 22, 2025, at the Cherokee Nation Outpatient Health Center walking toward Downing Street in Tahlequah.

In 2022, a high school feud in Tahlequah escalated into tragedy when 18-year-old Ethan Gentry was shot and killed. Federal prosecutors have now charged Jermyn Vann, Jr., along with his parents, Jermyn Sr. and Billie Vann, in connection with the case. Ethan is remembered as a devoted son, athlete, and friend with a big smile and a bigger heart. The MMCP project honors his life while seeking justice and accountability.

Cherokee 411 with Cara is committed to bringing these stories forward, honoring families, and demanding accountability. Erik’s story is not just about one man—it is about a system that too often leaves Native families without answers.
