Sundown Johann Franklin Scrigna
Justice for Sundown Johann Franklin Scrigna — the trail went cold in 2015, but the truth hasn't.
Start here
Brother reported Sundown may have attempted off-grid living or temporary farm work; unverified speculation about possible relocation to Colorado—what evidence supports either theory?
Why was there a nearly 4-year delay between Sundown's last confirmed contact in December 2015 and the missing person report filed in January 2019?
Neighbor reported Sundown previously associated with individuals of questionable character—have these associates been identified and interviewed?
Sundown Johann Franklin Scrigna, a 33-year-old male, was last confirmed in contact on December 1, 2015, in Pāhoa, Hawaii, though his disappearance was not reported until January 2019. Investigators found his Leilani Estates residence abandoned and overgrown with no signs of recent occupancy, and neighbors reported he had not been seen for years. Despite extensive searches, canvassing, social media checks, and unverified speculation about possible relocation to Colorado, no credible leads have emerged, and the case was suspended in February 2020 pending new information.

19‑000334. The case originated from a report filed with the Los Angeles Police Department and forwarded to Hawaii authorities in January 2019.
Initial attempts to locate Sundown at his last known address on Kula Street in the Leilani Estates Subdivision were unsuccessful. The property lacked posted address numbers, was heavily overgrown, and appeared abandoned.
Neighbor inquiries indicated Sundown had not been seen for several years, and one neighbor reported he previously associated with individuals of questionable character. Multiple searches of the property were conducted throughout 2019.
Each visit confirmed the residence was unoccupied, overgrown, and showed no signs of recent activity. Efforts included verifying NCIC entry, conducting area canvasses, and attempting repeated contact with Sundown’s brother who had filed the initial report.
His brother stated he last had contact with Sundown in 2015 and believed his brother might have attempted off‑grid living or temporary farm work. He confirmed shared ownership of the property but reported no authorization for anyone to reside there.
Social media checks and public media releases yielded no leads. Continued investigative follow‑ups through late 2019 and early 2020 produced no new information.
His brother reported no financial activity linked to Sundown and only unverified speculation that he may have moved to Colorado. With no sightings, evidence, or activity indicating Sundown’s whereabouts, the investigation was suspended on February 18, 2020, pending new information or leads.
