Torey Newlin was a 23-year-old senior at Colorado State University who disappeared during a trip to Lahaina, Maui, in late winter 2002. He attended a String Cheese Incident concert with friends but became disoriented that night and was last seen leaving the Lahaina Civic Center on foot, appearing paranoid and confused. Witnesses say he left behind his wallet, backpack, and cell phone and was wearing only white shorts, a puka shell necklace, and no shoes, identification, or money.

A security guard recalled Torey saying he didn’t know where he was before running out; a law enforcement officer later saw him yelling while walking along Honoapiilani Highway, and the final sighting placed him sitting on a bench in front of Wahikuli State Wayside Park. The Maui Police Department mounted searches with dogs and the fire department conducted aerial searches; the family also searched privately and offered a reward, but no credible leads developed. If anyone was in Lahaina that night or remembers seeing Torey, please share what you know.
