LANAI CITY – Police have opened up a murder-suicide investigation into the deaths of a 15-year-old girl and a 24-year-old man, both Lanai residents, found dead Saturday morning in a field.
The couple apparently had a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship but may have broken it off sometime before their deaths, according to Lt. Glenn Cuomo of the Maui Police Department’s Criminal Investigation Division.
Police would not release the names of the two victims, pending notification of family members.
The two were reported missing to authorities by their families around 8:30 a.m. Friday, Cuomo said. A community search was launched, and the victims’ bodies were found at 7:50 a.m. Saturday in field No. 5311, approximately a half mile from the Lanai Police Station.
Four Maui police detectives and an evidence technician were immediately dispatched to Lanai to investigate, Cuomo said.
He said police were investigating whether the murder-suicide was connected with a July 16 arrest of a Lanai man for 14 counts of sexual assault against a minor.
Cuomo said police believe the teenage girl and the man each died by a single gunshot, but investigators want to wait for an autopsy report to confirm the cause of death. A firearm was found at the scene, but Cuomo would not identify the type of gun or speculate on who fired the weapon.
Cuomo said police have no witnesses.
The bodies were taken to Maui Memorial Medical Center, where autopsies were expected to be conducted.
Police confirmed that the girl was a student at Lanai High and Elementary School.
Lanai Principal Pierce Meyers said he started fielding calls about the incident Saturday morning.
He said he plans to meet with the police chaplain and other officials today on how to best help Lanai students and the community as a whole.
“We recognize the need for people who are grieving,” Meyers said.
An event could be held as early as Monday night, but Meyers could not provide details until he completed his discussions with authorities.
Lanai teachers were scheduled to return to the campus Tuesday for their first official day back to school. The first day of classes for students is July 31...

and guilty for it all i just can't blame no one,
i'm filthy with what caused the death of his son,
it kills me to think that i'm the one that shed his blood,
i still think think of the way he died and how it was,

MY TESTIMONY
February 24 2006
hey guys i jus wanted to share my testimony with you
well growing up i pretty much was raised on sports
and foolin around
i had a loving family
but i took it all for granite during my intermediate years i started doing some things that i never did want to do...got a girlfriend that is suicidal like 24-7.and i had to be there like all the time
we had some good and bad times...mostly bad
it was to much for me.so i did some drugs cuz i was lost and looked at it as my way of bein cool...and as my stress reliever...which was not... i was mad all the time
i didnt know where to turn
jus always thinkin about how much i hate this world and this world hated me
i even threatened my brother zack and told him i would kill him
stop right now i want to say i was confused and didnt know what i was doin i love this guy so much but any ways...
and when i wasnt mad i conteplated suicide...later i found out my dad volunteered me to go to thailand on a mission trip during the summer i didnt wanna go
as the school year had almost come to an end my friend catelin at church asked me to come to summer camp with them cuz she didnt want to be stuck there with just timmy from our church which was pretty cool
during summer camp i was thinkin about the trip to thailand after but i didnt want to go because i thought i was going to die but i didnt wanna disappoint my dad so i was thinking
then one day my friend jeremy pulled me onto the side to talk about what was going on because during church camp i wasnt showing much of a godly attitude because i was stressed out with life so we talked about things in tears and i was crying so badly i couldnt talk straight he told me to say a prayer with him and give my life to christ and after that i jus couldnt shut up about accepting christ...he got me into christ and now i know Gods with me hes showing me the way
thank you god for your son
thanx for the bigger family
i love you so much
and catelin thank you for inviting me to camp you probably dont remember inviting me but thanks because if it wasnt for you i wouldnt have been livin the way i am livin now
thanx
