Woman's body found off Kalapana

[alonak]

It was clear from the beginning that something very ugly had happened and many people wanted to cover for cultural backwardness and/or someone who had made a mistake and killed these kids. From the posts on the original Hawaii Tribune Herald Article, to punaweb, and the Big Island Chronicle... I'm sorry to have to say it this way, but many local people trying to divide up the haole people against each other, and having no concern for either of the dead young people or their families. These 2 kids obviously were Stupid to try to go against local people in business. They were completely naive. But just because they were Stupid, that was no reason to kill them. The young man and young woman's family never should have let themselves be divided. The mayor should have immediately put up a $100,000 reward the moment the homicide was revealed, if not, then the 2 families should have done so. The young woman's body should never have been released. I'm sorry for the young lady's parents who thought they were given what they called the Aloha treatment, but somebody needs to tell them the truth, that is the kind of Aloha reserved for special occasions. They tried to encroach on some local people's business turf, may have even offended some people purposefully or inadvertently, and they were killed for it. Now haole, make up your mind. What are you going to do?
