Thinking of Hawayi, this is so sad of a story. My heart breaks for her and the family. I only hope that the person
responsible for this outcome is locked up and punished as duly deserved.
From what I have been able to gather
About 5pm on Sept 16 2014, Hawayi arrived home as seen by her grandmother (her mom's mom).
She came into the house and changed out of her school clothes and turned on the TV. Her father
calls and tells her that he might be stopping by her cousin's house, but not right
away. This would be the fathers Niece. With her mother working, she took the money that was left
for her? made the lil hike to the store to get candies for her and her cousin. Whom she usually visited anyway.
I don't think she was even on the roads while she walked to the store. Its kitty corner from the apartment buildings
complex. Just a few trees separating it. This is the possible route I would think she'd take. Coming
in from behind the Texaco and what looks like the dumpster area. Pictures of map below. She never made it
to her cousin's home and her dad never did either. She was not reported missing till after dark that night.
I have to think if it was a crime of opportunity, the opportunity was in the Texaco Parking lot
or the Apartment Complex Parking area. Whomever could have seen her walk out from behind that area
as whomever left the Texaco moments before she arrived. Drove around to the apartment complex and
snagged her on her way back through. Seems the Texaco on google is rather busy, if something happened
in the parking lot I would think someone saw something. Second someone in the apartment complex either
living there or visiting someone that does. Sees her going through there as he is leaving, parks and
waits for her. Crimes of opportunity. I don't think she took the long route down her drive way out to
St. Stephens past the little wooded area separating her entrance from the Texaco's and back again.
I would have walked the shorter way from the back of the Texaco.
I would think that would be why the person in the video would be questioned. She may have seen something
walking out of the store shortly after Hawayi. Questions I would think asked would be. Do you remember the
girl. do you remember her walking in? did you see her as you walked out? Was she walking towards the road?
Etc.... From what was said and understand that she is not a suspect and has been cooperating with law
enforcement. I have to wonder if they question any of the customers that were on video shortly before Hawayi
was in the store? Even just to ask if they seen the way she entered the Texaco parking lot.
They listed it as a homicide, and was said by the public works employee that she was nude when found. She
was not even wearing shoes. I have to wonder if these items were found near by? And what the cause of her
death was. Strangulation?
I hope they find out who did this to her soon and lock em up. So saddened.
My thoughts and heart are with the family during this tough time.
