121: Gone in Omaha: The Disappearance of Camisha Hollis

On the night of April 1–2, 2018, Camisha Hollis vanished from her Omaha home after a violent argument with her longtime partner, Marvin L. Young III. Her three daughters woke the next morning to find their mother gone, her car and phone missing, and the house silent but for troubling signs of what had occurred.

Investigators discovered blood at the home, spent shell casings, and evidence of forced medication given to the children, raising alarms about abuse and coercive control. Days later, Hollis’s vehicle was abandoned downtown, and her whereabouts remain unknown.

Camisha’s disappearance remains unsolved. Her family continues to search for answers, highlighting the broader risks mothers face in abusive relationships.
