Keisha Lene Kootswatewa, a 32-year-old Hopi-Tewa mother and skilled beadworker and seamstress, disappeared from the Tees Toh area on the Navajo Nation in Arizona. She was last seen around March 22, 2022, after attending a chaotic house party in Teesto that reportedly ended in violence. Witnesses later said two men, Damien Niedo and Micheaux-Michael Begaii, were shot and killed at the gathering and that Keisha was taken from the scene at gunpoint.

Keisha had been going through a difficult period after separating from the father of her children and had fallen in with a new group of people; her family says she usually checked in every couple of weeks but stopped communicating in late March 2022. The family reports early confusion and delays as they tried to get local law enforcement to take action, and later the matter was turned over to the FBI. Search efforts included organized parties and door-to-door inquiries by relatives, notably her cousin Yolanda Bydonie.

Anyone with information about Keisha, the Teesto gathering around March 22, 2022, or movements in and around Tees Toh and Na Ah Tee canyon is asked to come forward.
