Search underway for missing Oahu woman; case believed linked to man found dead

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - Authorities are asking for the public’s help to find a missing woman and sources say her disappearance may be linked to a separate case in which a man reported missing was later found dead.

CrimeStoppers sent out a missing persons report for 36-year-old Johnalynn Ilae around 3:35 p.m. Thursday.

She last made contact with a family member at approximately 10 p.m. on Wednesday.

Ilae lives in the McCully area, but may have been in the Pearl City area during the evening hours.

Officials said she was last seen driving her brown four-door Nissan Altima with the license plate SBF-091.

Ilae is described as Hawaiian, about 5-foot-5, 185 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.

CrimeStoppers also put out a separate missing persons release Thursday, seeking help to find 46-year-old Frank Camaro.

But about 4 p.m., authorities said that alert had been canceled after Camaro was found dead in the Ala Moana area.

Sources say the two cases are believed to be linked.

Anyone with information on Ilae’s whereabouts is asked to call CrimeStoppers at (808) 955-8300.
