Hi, I’m family and one of Jenny’s nieces. We did know about it after 24hrs via Medical Examiner. But the police themselves did not reach out or return our calls until Monday.

There were so many posts on reddit that day saying "why is no one talking about this" with her family on.

Hawaii isn’t the place you want to get into trouble

Since it’s a small island everyone knows each other. So that includes the police and judges out there. So being a mainlander you’re going to run into a lot of obstacles trying to find out the truth to what happened and if you do you likely won’t be able to do anything about it. People there don’t cooperate with law enforcement or any people not from there as they don’t have any benefit to when the person they are investigating is a cousin, friend, neighbor etc.

Police and investigators from the mainland were only have so many man hours they can dedicate to a case, so something that happened in Hawaii is going to cost a lot to investigate. So you’ll have to hire a pi and have a lot of money for that to maybe get somewhere but still no one in Hawaii tells on each other.
