Hawaii: Dawn Momohara and Nancy Anderson

On Monday, March 20th, 1977, 16-year-old Dawn Momohara received a call at the home she shared with her mother in Honolulu. It was an unknown male who asked to meet her at the local Ala Mohana shopping center. Telling her mother she would be back later, Dawn left without another word. When she hadn't returned home by midnight, her mother called the police. Dawn was found the next morning, dead, at her nearby High School. She had been raped and strangled. The case soon went cold. 
Nancy Anderson was born in Michigan, but, after High School, in 1971, wanted adventure. She soon moved to Oahu in Hawaii and found a roommate and a job at the local McDonald's, also at the Ala Mohana shopping center. Things were going well until the end of January 1972, a mere four months after moving to Hawaii, Nancy was found dead in her bathroom by her roommate. She had been stabbed. Her case also went cold. 
Two cases, 6 years apart that went cold, but, miraculously, and with the help of forensics, science, DNA and geneaology, were solved more than four decades later.
