On August 22,1993, a 16-year-old Indigenous girl from Hilo, Hawaii went out with a man she had met earlier in the day and never came home. He and two other men drugged her, sexually assaulted her and beat her. They drove her to a nearby state park and tossed her off a 20-foot cliff. But despite all this, when her family reported her missing, police wrote her off as a runaway teen. Years later, one of her killers confessed to her grisly murder and the torture she was put through. But her body has never been found. Her family has never been given the closure they need and deserve.
