Kendra Nicole Battelo, 24, disappeared from Enid, Oklahoma, in early July 2022. She was last seen on July 5, 2022, and her mother last heard her voice on a phone call around midnight on July 7. Family reported her missing on July 12 after several days without contact. At the time she vanished Kendra was about 5 feet 7 inches to 5 feet 8 inches tall, 115 to 130 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes; she often wore a short buzz cut and sometimes wigs.

The months before her disappearance were turbulent. Kendra had been in a violent relationship with her boyfriend, Colby Sheppard, who was arrested in the month before she vanished on a domestic violence charge she said included strangulation. A court date was set for July but the case was dismissed after Kendra went missing and could not testify. Kendra had been staying with friends on West Randolph Avenue when she disappeared. After her last call, her phone and social media went silent; there was an unconfirmed sighting on July 20, 2022, in Pawnee of a woman who resembled her.

Investigators carried out interviews, search warrants, and field searches, but Kendra’s whereabouts remain unknown and the investigation is active. If anyone knew Kendra, saw her in July 2022, or has information that could help locate her, please come forward.
