041 | Below the Cliffs: The Unsolved Killing of Michael Rosenbaum

In July 2021, 76-year-old Michael Rosenbaum disappeared from Pahoa. Nine days later, a fisherman spotted a body below the lava cliffs at MacKenzie State Recreation Area. It wasn’t an accident. He’d been shot.

Four years on, the case is still open. No arrests. No suspects named. We trace the timeline, the gaps, and the silence that still hangs over Puna—and we ask for the one detail that could turn this into justice.
