EP. #95: Daylenn Pua - Stairway to Heaven (Haiku Stairs) - Oahu - Hawaii

 

February 26th, 2015; A young man from the Big Island of Hawaii was on Oahu visiting his grandmother.  He planned to hike the Haiku Stairs, also known as the Stairway to Heaven.  His grandmother warned him it was illegal to hike the stairs and he could be arrested.  Not heeding her warnings, he set off on the hike that morning.  When he didn't return home, he was reported missing, and the search began.  Join us this week as we investigate the disappearance of Daylenn Pua. 

Notes & Corrections:
- Early in the episode, Joe states Moke was visiting his grandmother on the Big Island.  Mike corrects Joe around timestamp 5:15, stating that Moke was from the Big Island and visiting his grandmother on Oahu. 

- There were a lot of discrepancies in our research on the age of Moke and the date he went missing.  We discuss this during the episode, and based on evidence believe he started his hike on the 26th, not the 27th, which is listed in many news reports on this case.
