She and her fourteen-year-old cousin had stolen a bottle of alcohol and put it in the cannery, and in the early morning hours they sneaked out and went there to drink. While on the cannery dock at the Isanotski Strait at 3:00 a.m., Shanelle apparently leaned too far over the edge and fell in. The tide was ebbing at the time and the currents were strong. Shanelle's cousin tried to find help, but couldn't, then got sick and passed out and didn't wake up for hours. By the time the search of the water for Shanelle began, she had disappeared. She was an honor student at East High School at the time of her disappearance. She is presumed drowned, but her body has never been located.

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.
