Intense search underway for missing toddler last seen 2 weeks ago​

An intense police search is underway for a missing 18-month-old who was last seen two weeks ago, when she was dropped off to her father.

Police identified the child as Kytana Ancog.

“Help me look for my baby. She means the world to me. I love her so much,” said Kytana’s mother Ashley Ancog.

Kytana was dropped off Jan. 31 to her father, Travis Rodrigues, at his Kaulainahee Place address in Aiea.

“She dropped the baby off with him and never got her back,” said Lisa Mora, Kytana’s grandmother. “I just want the public treat it as if it were their child or their grandchild.”

“Maybe you don’t necessarily know where they are today, but let’s say you saw them a couple days ago, maybe even a week ago, where was the last time you saw them and what time? Give us any kind of information. That would be very beneficial to the investigation,” said Sgt. Chris Kim, Honolulu CrimeStoppers Coordinator.

Rodrigues is a convicted felon with a long criminal history.

You know, at some point one starts to question why the Judge keeps allowing these continuances. There might be a good reason, of course, but it does make you wonder.

That's why I point them out and make an ad nauseum big deal about them. And Mel does too. This needs to STOP. All have jobs to do and they need to DO THEM. Or explain WITH PROOF of the need. I can't even begin to tell you what this does to families, their lives and the ups and downs and all their entire lives at a standstill because it is very hard to go forward in any way until justice comes IF it comes. The hope, the travel, the arrangements for the time you think it is going to happen but not only that the knowledge or so you THINK that just gotta make it that long, then we will be through it and so forth.

On top of that our system doesn't work and is bogged down due to THIS as much as anything. YEARS and YEARS. And no one should kid themselves some need for delays are lies or a conflict on that date with another case is not always true. Just like any normal person that has to prove why they missed work and get a doctor's excuse, just like a kid in school, etc. This is b.s.

Kudos by the way for putting this in print from the case log showing ALL the delays. What was the other one I just saw you do that in? Emma Sweet? I think everyone and podcasters should do that. Seeing it right there in black and white of delay after delay after delay for the same hearing or trial and seeing it month after month or year after year really calls them out and stands out.

This is disgusting and these ARE OUR employees even though it has gotten so far away from people believing that and they certainly don't either. I mean the judges, the prosecutors at least for SURE. They are OUR courtrooms and OUR system. Someone I watched a couple of months ago pointed this out and I believe it was Vinnie Politan. Not necessarily was it on delays, I can't recall bu the fact remains it is a fact.

And for anyone to think they can't call it out or that they are public servants that should have to explain like anyone else, to the people who pay them, I disagree. Respectfully and don't know why more don't.

Grand jury indicts man in fatal Aiea shooting​

Mar. 21—Leroy Charles Kelii Rodrigues was indicted on one count of second-degree murder and two firearm charges in the death of Ethan Owens.

An Oahu grand jury Wednesday indicted 33-year-old Leroy Charles Kelii Rodrigues in the fatal shooting of a 21-year-old Waianae man on March 13 in Aiea.

Rodrigues was indicted on one count of second-degree murder and two firearm charges in the death of Ethan Owens.


The Honolulu Prosecutor's Office said in a news release that Owens and three other men went to Rodrigues' Aiea home to collect a debt.

According to a court document, Rodrigues, armed with a rifle, met the four men at 2 :12 p.m. March 13 outside his house at 99-627 Kaulainahee Place, and an argument broke out.

When Owens tried to leave in his vehicle, Rodrigues allegedly went up to the driver's side of the vehicle, pointed the rifle and fired a single round into the left side of Owen's face, according to a court document showing probable cause for a warrantless arrest.

Owens was critically injured and taken to Pali Momi Medical Center, where he died at 3 :25 p.m.

Police recovered a Winchester Model 92 rifle.

One of the other men identified Rodrigues as the shooter.

Rodrigues was arrested at 2 :17 p.m. March 13 on suspicion of attempted second-degree murder, and three outstanding warrants. After Owens' death, the offense was changed to second-degree murder.

If convicted, Rodrigues could be subject to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole based on a state law that allows of two or more felonies to be sentenced to an extended term of imprisonment, the indictment says.

Second-degree murder carries a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment with the possibility of parole.

Rodrigues is also charged with carrying or use of a firearm in the commission of a separate felony, which is a Class A felony, punishable by up to 20 years in prison, and place to keep loaded firearms other than pistols and revolvers, a Class B felony, punishable by up to 10 years in prison.

Rodrigues is being held at the Oahu Community Correctional Center in lieu of $2 million bail.

The owner of the Kaulainahee Place house is Leroy C. Rodrigues, the grandfather of Travis Rodrigues, who is awaiting trial for murder in the death of his 18-month-old daughter, Kytana Ancog.

Travis Rodrigues, aka Travis Heffelinger, listed the house as his residence following his arrest.

Travis Rodrigues initially made a confession to police that he struck and squeezed the toddler until she was lifeless at the home of a friend in Aiea. He told police he placed her body in a duffel bag and gave it to a friend to dispose.

Ancog's body was never found.

Leroy Charles Kelii Rodrigues is a first cousin of Travis Rodrigues, aka Travis Heffelinger, according to a relative.

Correction : Travis Rodrigues and Leroy Rodrigues III are first cousins. An earlier version of this story, citing unconfirmed media reports, said they were brothers.

Not facinig nearly enough imo.
"Could be" subject to life imprisonment... I have a lot more to say but I'll stop. Right there.

City Council approves $250K settlement in HPD discrimination, harassment suit

HPD Detective Maile Rego is getting $250,000 to settle a lawsuit against the Honolulu Police Department.

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - An HPD detective is getting $250,000 to settle a lawsuit against the Honolulu Police Department.

The City Council approved the deal for Detective Maile Rego on Wednesday.

In 2021, Rego said supervisors denied her promotions because she is a woman.

She also said command staff retaliated against her because she criticized the department’s response to the missing child investigation of 18-month-old Kytana Ancog.

Rego said supervisors launched an internal investigation into her computer use when she tried to assist.

The settlement includes additional taxpayer funds for legal expenses, and she’ll received back pay for the time she spent on leave.

HPD has not responded to our request for comment.

Couldn't find an article, but Kytana has now been missing for 4 years.

 

[GrandmaBear]

Look at her. It is what gets me in some of these cases. Look at the first pics on top. Someone cared about this child, dressed her up, did her hair, etc. The smiles, up top she clearly is happy...

Who did this and had her happy and what happened... So sad, so tragic. SOMETHING happened. Something changed...

Such a beautiful child. Happy.

Something changed. A picture is worth 1,000 words right. Apparently not always... One would never know this was a child in crisis, about to die.

Man facing murder trial in death of daughter makes a plea offer
The man whose murder trial in the 2021 death of his 18-month-old daughter, Kytana Ancog, had been set for June 16 has made a plea offer to the state.

Travis Rodrigues’ plea offer was mentioned during an Oahu Circuit Court hearing Wednesday to discuss trial setting. The state said it is still working on the offer, the court minutes say.

An offer had been submitted as early as January, and possibly earlier. Court minutes from a Jan. 3 hearing show the state acknowledged it had received an offer and is considering it, but informed the court it needs more time to see if the offer is viable.

Rodrigues’ attorney Walter Rodby did not respond to the Honolulu Star- Advertiser’s request for comment on the details of the plea offer.
