Missing and Murdered
Henny Scott, a 14-year-old girl from Montana’s Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation, was missing 19 days before the FBI acted on her mother’s pleas and issued a public advisory. Scott’s snow-covered body was found on the reservation she called home two days later.
Scott’s story is not unique on Native American reservations. Indigenous women go missing and murdered at rates far greater than the overall population. Search parties often end in disappointment. And rarely are any of those murders ever prosecuted.
With little help from BIA or local law enforcement, desperate family members are often left with more questions than answers.
