Missing in Hawaii: Recent Episodes
Julie Morgan
Hawaii is the land of rainbows and dream vacations. But for some residents and visitors, the sunshine, palm trees and relaxing waves have turned from a dream into a nightmare. Across the state, an alarming number of people are reported missing each year. In fact, Hawaii ranks 8th (or “in the top 10”) among US states for the most missing people. Each episode, we’ll delve into cold missing persons cases from the Aloha State. Maybe, together, we can finally bring some of the missing home.

It was a sunny morning in June, 1977, and there were no clouds in sight. Charlotte, or Char as her loved ones called her, walked out of her home on the Windward side of Oahu. She was pushing a stroller, which held her 5mo old son, Marx. Char walked to a local bus stop, and then seemingly vanished into thin air. Hours later, only the stroller would be found. That would be the last sign of the duo for nearly 35 years.
Where were Char & baby Marx?
