The Kauai serial killer is an unidentified killer who murdered two women and injured another on the island of Kauai, Hawaii, between April and August of 2000.
On April 7, 2000, the body of Lisa Bissell, a 38-year-old woman from Hanapepe, was found in a ditch close to Polihale state park. She was s*xually assaulted, beaten, and later stabbed to death. Her throat was also slashed.
Some of her belongings were found off of a road in Waimea, so it's believed she was abducted from there.
On May 22, 2000, a 52-year-old woman was severely wounded by the perpetrator in Kekaha. The perpetrator approached the victim in the yard she was working in and told her, "My name is John and I'm homeless."
The victim recommended that he visit her neighbors home, where the owners frequently let homeless people camp on their property. When she turned around to continue working, the assailant forcefully took her behind the house and beat her, breaking one of her arms.
He then sexually assaulted the victim. He later stabbed her in the chest with a knife, but the knife bent after it hit the victim's breastbone, so he threw it in a bush and fled. The victim crawled for three hours until she reached a telephone and called for help.
On August 30, 2000, the decomposing body of Daren R. Singer, a 43-year-old woman from Maui, was found at a remote campsite near Pakala Point Beach. She was raped, stabbed in the throat, and beaten to death.
Her face was almost beaten beyond the point of recognition. Investigators determined that she was murdered at least 12 hours prior to the discovery of her body A memorial service held for Singer in September of the same year was attended by more than 500 people.
Despite a composite sketch of the perpetrator and the availability of his DNA, he was never caught, and the murders remain unsolved.
