Karen Louise Johnley Wallahee, 28, was last seen on November 7, 1987, near the Yakama Indian Reservation in Washington after visiting the now-defunct Lazy R Tavern in Harrah. She was described as 5 feet tall, about 100 pounds, with black shoulder-length hair held by pink barrettes, brown eyes, and wearing a Levi denim jacket, pink t-shirt and white tennis shoes. Her cousin reported her missing and noted she had no means of transportation. Concern was also expressed about the person she was last seen with, though few details about that individual are available.

Her disappearance became part of a larger pattern of unsolved deaths and disappearances of Native women on and around the reservation during the 1980s and 1990s. The Yakama Nation Tribal Police have handled the investigation and the case remains open. Very little else is publicly known about Karen’s movements that night or any confirmed sightings afterward.

If anyone knew Karen, saw her on November 7, 1987, or has information about who she was with that evening, please come forward.
