Circumstances at a Glance

Jeramy was last seen in Anchorage on December 29, 2019. Publicly available case information provides very few details about where in Anchorage he was last seen, who may have seen him, what he was doing before he disappeared, or what circumstances led to his disappearance.

He has reportedly not been heard from since that date. No publicly released information reviewed for this article identifies a suspect or establishes that foul play, an accident, or a voluntary disappearance caused him to vanish.

Circumstances at a Glance

Jeramy was last seen in Anchorage on December 29, 2019. Publicly available case information provides very few details about where in Anchorage he was last seen, who may have seen him, what he was doing before he disappeared, or what circumstances led to his disappearance.

He has reportedly not been heard from since that date. No publicly released information reviewed for this article identifies a suspect or establishes that foul play, an accident, or a voluntary disappearance caused him to vanish.


What Happened to Jeramy Battishill?

Jeramy Lynn Battishill disappeared during the winter of 2019 in Anchorage. His official last-contact date is December 29, 2019, but remarkably little information about his final known movements has been made public.

The NamUs case states simply that Jeramy was last seen in Anchorage and has not been heard from since. Other case databases based on the official records repeat the same limited circumstances.

There is no publicly identified last-seen address, business, residence, vehicle, companion, or specific Anchorage neighborhood in the available official information reviewed for this article. That lack of detail makes Jeramy’s disappearance particularly difficult to reconstruct from public records.


Jeramy’s Description

At the time he went missing, Jeramy was approximately 5 feet 10 inches tall and weighed about 135 pounds. He has brown hair and brown eyes and is identified in missing-person records as American Indian/Alaska Native. A scar on his left arm is listed as a distinguishing physical characteristic.

Some records also list “Jeremy L Battishill” as an alternate spelling or alias. Searches for information about the case should therefore consider both “Jeramy” and “Jeremy.”


Delay Between Jeramy’s Disappearance and the Recorded Police Report

One of the notable elements of the public record is the difference between Jeramy’s last-contact date and the date associated with his Anchorage Police Department report.

Jeramy’s last-known contact is recorded as December 29, 2019, while case information lists May 5, 2021 as the report date associated with Anchorage Police Department case 210014063.

The publicly available records reviewed for this article do not explain the approximately 16-month gap. It therefore should not be assumed that investigators were necessarily unaware of his disappearance throughout that entire period; the records available online simply do not provide enough information to explain the discrepancy.

A NamUs record was subsequently established under MP91069.


An Alaska Native Man Missing From Anchorage

Jeramy’s case is also part of the broader issue surrounding missing Indigenous people in Alaska. The Alaska Department of Public Safety and Anchorage Police Department have acknowledged the importance of improving the response to missing Indigenous-person cases, including correcting the misconception that someone must be missing for 24 hours before a report can be made. There is no waiting period to report a person missing.

Jeramy continues to appear in Alaska’s missing-person data as an Indigenous male whose case is assigned to the Anchorage Police Department.


Latest Publicly Available Information

As of August 15, 2026, Jeramy Battishill remains listed in Alaska’s current missing-person data. The state dataset continues to associate his name with Anchorage Police Department case 210014063 and the December 29, 2019 disappearance date.

His NamUs case, MP91069, also remains publicly accessible as a missing-person case.

A current third-party Crime Solvers Central case record, updated in August 2026, likewise continues to classify Jeramy as missing and identifies the Anchorage Police Department as the primary agency. That site’s update date should not be interpreted as evidence of a new law-enforcement development; it reflects an update to the website’s case record.

I found no publicly announced resolution, recovery, arrest, named suspect, or newly disclosed theory of Jeramy’s disappearance in the current official and publicly searchable materials reviewed for this article.

That means the central question in this case remains the same: What happened to Jeramy Lynn Battishill after December 29, 2019?


Public Attention Continues

Although detailed media reporting on Jeramy’s disappearance appears limited, missing-person advocates and online communities have continued circulating his case.

A Websleuths discussion dedicated to Jeramy was created in October 2024, while missing-person advocacy pages and Facebook accounts have shared his photograph, description, police case number, and requests for information.

The Justice for Native People project has also published a page about Jeramy, helping keep attention on his disappearance within the broader Missing and Murdered Indigenous People community.

Social-media discussion can provide leads and preserve community recollections, but theories or claims appearing in comments should be treated as unverified unless confirmed by investigators or reliable records.


Someone May Still Know What Happened

Cases with limited publicly released information can depend heavily on someone coming forward with a detail investigators did not previously have.

A person who interacted with Jeramy shortly before December 29, 2019, remembers where he was staying, knows who he was spending time with, saw him somewhere in Anchorage, communicated with him by telephone or social media, or learned something about his plans may possess information relevant to reconstructing his final known movements.

Even information that initially appears insignificant could help establish a clearer timeline.
