Shasta Himelrick
Murdered and Missing Women in Ohio Part 8
I will tell you upfront that the pathologist ruled Shasta Lynn Himelrick’s death a possible suicide. He did so just like he ruled Tameka Lynch’s death a drug overdose.
Shasta (20) spent Christmas Day 2014 with her family. Everything was looking up for Shasta. Her drug recovery was going well, despite the loss of her father earlier that year. She even posted on Facebook on December 18th that she was expecting a baby with her fiancé, Michael Owes.
While at her paternal grandmother’s house on Christmas Day, Shasta received a text message that made her leave with parting words that she would be back later. That would be the last time anyone in the family saw her alive.
She was texting friends and family until around 2:30 AM. She was seen at a gas station purchasing items at 3:15 AM on December 26th. The items were a sweatshirt, food, and gas.
That night, Shasta was upset that Michael was at another girl’s house partying, or so the cops say…
