Information on the case from local sources, may or may not be correct : Henson was last seen in Key West, Florida on February 24, 2010. She lived in a houseboat offshore in Cow Key Channel. Two men who lived in nearby houseboats, Darrell Henshaw and Brendan Coughlin, reported her missing the next day.
They stated they saw Henson taking a dinghy from her boat to shore at 11:15 a.m. The next day, her bike was found locked in its usual spot on the seawall, but Henson and her dinghy were gone.
Henson's mother stated her daughter had been romantically involved with both Henshaw and Coughlin. Authorities were initially unable to find the men to interview them about her case. They eventually located and questioned them. Both men had gone to Miami, Florida to look for work the day after they filed the missing persons report, which is why they couldn't be found.
Henson is an alcoholic, has previously been homeless and has had several run-ins with the law; she was arrested at least seven times in the four years prior to her disappearance. In September 2009, she was charged with attempted murder after she allegedly attacked a male acquaintance and tried to slit his throat with a box cutter; he had to get nine stitches.
The charge was later reduced to felony domestic battery, then to misdemeanor battery. She pleaded guilty and was released from jail on February 5, after 148 days in custody. She was on probation for the offense at the time of her disappearance and is now wanted as an absconder.
Henson's mother stated she had been trying to clean up her life. She had an associate's degree from St. Petersburg College and was enrolled at Florida Keys Community College, hoping to become a substance abuse counselor. Her hobbies include snorkeling, scuba diving, cooking and reading on the beach.
Authorities stated they don't suspect a crime in Henson's case and think she may have met with an accident at sea. Boating conditions were bad on the day of her disappearance, with strong winds and rough seas. Her mother believes foul play could have been involved in her disappearance, however. Her case remains unsolved.

September 2021 updates and sources

A missing person is a person who has disappeared and whose status as alive or dead cannot be confirmed as their location and condition are not known. A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2�5% of missing children in Europe. By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends. Several organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and imAge at the time of disappearance: s of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.
