Derrick Ray Henagan was 35 when he was last seen on August 4, 2008, near Newberry in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Residents reported seeing him walk into brush across from a neighbor’s property at about 4:30 p.m.; he was supposed to meet his live-in girlfriend at a deer blind but never arrived. He never returned to the home, never contacted family, and has not been reliably seen since.

Those close to him said he had been living on North Manistique Lake Road, had recently argued with his girlfriend and had stayed with a neighbor. In the days before his disappearance he called family and friends in Hartford, Michigan, seeking a ride home; his father sent money for a bus ticket. Searches and interviews by the Michigan State Police found no clothing, personal property, or remains in the woods.

Henagan was about 6 feet 1 inch and 170–180 pounds with short spiked brown hair and brown eyes. Distinctive marks included heavily scarred, deformed fingers on his right hand after reattachment, several other scars and lumps on his body, pierced ears and left nipple, and multiple tattoos including tribal designs on both upper arms (one reading Rayce + Dy) and a large wizard on the left side of his back. The case remains open and was subsequently ruled a homicide; his body has not been recovered.

Did anyone in the Newberry or McMillan area see Derrick or the car he might have been using that afternoon?
