Kaylene Oehling: A Relentless Fight for Justice | Pittsburgh, PA

Twenty-year-old Kaylene Marie Oehling disappeared from Etna, Pennsylvania, on January 10, 2020. What followed were years of confusion, frustration, and heartbreaking silence. At the center of this story is her father, Jason Oehling, whose relentless determination to find answers has never faded. For more than three years, Jason pushed for movement in a case that had stalled almost from the beginning. Then, in March 2023, Kaylene’s remains were unexpectedly discovered in a wooded area miles from where she was last seen. Much of what we share in this episode does not come from detailed police reports or official statements. Instead, it comes from Jason himself, someone who has been outspoken across social media, news interviews, and podcast appearances as he fights for clarity in his daughter’s case. We also spoke directly with Jason to confirm the details discussed in this episode. This is one of those cases where a family carries the weight of telling the story. Public information is limited. The timeline is fragmented. Investigators have not identified a cause or manner of death, and no one has ever been charged. Still, Jason continues to push forward, driven by love and the belief that the truth is still out there. In this episode, we walk through the known timeline of Kaylene’s disappearance, the recovery of her remains, the years of advocacy by her family, and the urgent need for answers. This is a case that has haunted a community and one that deserves far more attention. _______________________________________ Crime Salad Live Murder Mystery Event Get tickets here: https://www.pave.live/crimesalad • KMNO – Help for the Missing and Murdered https://www.facebook.com/people/KMNO-Help-For-The-Missing-Murdered/61563347895168/ Justice for Kaylene – Community Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/480311013138270/ Public Petition: https://www.change.org/p/justiceforkaylene-kaylene-oehling Submit a Tip If you have any information, no matter how small it may seem, please reach out. • Allegheny County Police Homicide Unit 412-473-1200 • Anonymous Tip Line https://allegheny.crimewatchpa.com Kaylene’s Memorial Fund GoFundMe: GoFundMe Crime Salad Merch: https://crimesaladpodcast.dashery.com/ Ad-free & bonus episodes:Patreon.com/crimesaladpodcast Thanks for Supporting Crime Salad!
