Full custody of Shanae was given to her biological father on July 27, 2006. Sharp was given a court appointed deadline of August 15, 2006, to bring Shanae back to South Dakota. They failed to return, and have been missing since August 17, 2006.

A state arrest warrant was issued on August 17, 2006, by the Circuit Court of Beadle County, South Dakota, after Sharp was charged with removal of child from state. Sharp was subsequently charged with unlawful flight to avoid prosecution, and a federal arrest warrant was issued by United States District Court, District of South Dakota, Southern Division, on August 31, 2006.
