Hopkinsville, KY — The search for 16-year-old Amanda Henderson, who went missing on December 5, 2025, has entered its second month, with no sign of her despite increasing concerns from family, friends, and the local community. Amanda, along with her friend Kimera, was reported missing on the same day, but while Kimera was safely located in New York on January 12, 2026, Amanda’s whereabouts remain unknown.

Kimera’s safe return to her family has provided some relief, but her statement that she and Amanda parted ways and that she does not know where Amanda went after that has only deepened the mystery surrounding her disappearance. It is believed that Kimera’s family resides in New York, which may explain her presence there, but Amanda was not found with her, raising further questions about her location and safety.

Amanda is described as a 16-year-old girl standing between 5′ 2″ and 5′ 4″ tall, weighing approximately 210 lbs. She has black hair and brown eyes. Her sudden disappearance has left her loved ones in a state of growing concern, with each passing day increasing their fear for her well-being.
