More than 1,000 people are reported missing in Maui three weeks after catastrophic wildfires destroyed the town of Lahaina.

Maui Police Chief John Pelletier said that law enforcement plans to release a verified list of people who are unaccounted for in the coming days.

Law enforcement has located 1,400 people so far out of an initial number of 2,500 people reported missing.

The police chief said he cannot guarantee the remains of everyone who perished will be recovered.

I’m surprised that Trump is not being blamed.

From another thread:

"Governor Josh Green, while pushing the climate change narrative on news show Face the Nation, said that King Kamehameha Elementary school burned to the ground. He said that 650 students attended the school. How many are accounted for?"

I can't help but wonder, how may are being trafficked right now?

Are you stating that Maui was set on fire for the purpose of stealing children for a global pedophile ring?

No, its all the fault of "climate change".

Climate change "amplified" the failures of officials to act properly on the Maui wildfires, Hawaii Democratic Gov. Josh Green suggested on Sunday, 2 days ago

We must emphasize the children that are missing. Won’t happen. The rats are the ones who have convinced us the adults don’t matter.

Some are blaming him, because he exited from The Paris Accords.

They’re in the ashes. It’s horrific but this is reality. You’re not going to find 1,000 live victims in a lava cave.

So it should be a Public Memorial Park....right?? BUT...privately owned...and run like Colonial Williamsburg...

I'm betting that the 1000+ are not missing at all...they just don't know that they're designated as missing....and who made out the list to start with??

Even bassackwards countries keep a running death toll, injured.
Are all the folks just setting on the beach drinking Bud lite, waiting for someone else to count the bodies? I was in Guam for some years but Hawaii takes the friggen cake!

Micronesians, Pacific Islanders, they are not all the same.

Human bodies don’t just burn into ash like a tree branch. If they died in the fire, there will be discoverable remains.

It’s ridiculous. Instead of just kidnapping children from 3rd world countries, they decided to kidnap an entire school and draw the attention of the world on them?
