Tara Irdawati Isnin was a 33-year-old woman who moved from Singapore to Hawaii in August 2013 to begin married life with her husband, Leonardo Leo Chavez. On October 28, 2013, police found Tara dead from gunshot wounds inside the couple’s Ala Wai Townhouse apartment in Waikiki. Chavez was also found wounded from what authorities described as a self-inflicted gunshot and was taken to The Queen’s Medical Center.

Reporting identified Chavez as the central and only publicly named suspect. He was released from the hospital into police custody and faced second-degree murder and firearm charges in Hawaii; early court records show he pleaded not guilty.

Tara had recently left behind a young daughter in Singapore and was described by friends as a newlywed whose life in Hawaii had just begun. Does anyone have information about Tara’s last weeks in Waikiki or contacts who can help clarify what happened?
