Vanished in Kalihi: The Murder of Helen Prestosa

On a rainy November night in 2015, a beloved Jack in the Box manager disappeared from her apartment in Honolulu's Kalihi neighborhood. 39-year-old Helen Prestosa was gone, and no one knew why.

Answers seemed imminent when police honed in on the troubled son of Prestosa's neighbor. But a contentious murder trial — which was nearly derailed by a courthouse breakdown — resulted in an outcome that left many feeling shocked and let down.

This episode features an exclusive, in-depth interview with the defense attorney who repped the man accused of murdering Prestosa. And it will leave you wondering if the right person is in prison today.
