Abigail Bernstein and her two young sons remain missing in a case that has drawn the attention of the FBI in Honolulu.
Bernstein, who was born on December 14, 1990, was last seen with her children, Koa Kai Bernstein and Kush Kohole Bernstein, at the Ala Wai Boat Harbor in Honolulu, Hawaii, in October 2022. The FBI continues to seek information that could help locate the family.
The case remains open, and authorities are asking anyone who may have information about their whereabouts to come forward.
When Was Abigail Bernstein Last Seen?
According to investigators, Abigail Bernstein and her two sons were last seen at Ala Wai Boat Harbor in Honolulu on October 12, 2022.
The family had reportedly been preparing for an extended journey by sea. They subsequently failed to return as expected, leading relatives to report them missing and authorities to begin efforts to determine where they went.
The FBI later publicly appealed for assistance in locating the family.
Who Is Abigail Bernstein?
Abigail Bernstein is a woman from the United States who has connections to Hawaii, Naples, Florida, Petoskey, Michigan, and Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
Authorities say she has also used several names, including Abi, Avi, Avigayil, Abigayil and Ovi.
The FBI’s missing-person information lists her as a woman born in 1990 and continues to seek information concerning her whereabouts.
Her Two Sons Are Also Missing
Abigail is missing alongside her two sons.
Koa Kai Bernstein, born January 23, 2013, was last seen with his mother and younger brother. He was nine years old when he was reported missing.
Kush Kohole Bernstein, born November 11, 2015, was six years old when he was last seen. Hawaii authorities continue to classify him as missing and endangered.
Both children were last seen at the Ala Wai Boat Harbor with Abigail.
Where Could the Family Be?
Authorities have previously indicated that Abigail had ties to several Hawaiian islands, including Oahu, the Big Island, Kauai and Maui.
Investigators have considered the possibility that the family may have been living away from conventional services or moving between locations.
However, their current whereabouts remain unknown.
There has been no confirmed public information establishing where Abigail or either child is currently located.
Has Foul Play Been Confirmed?
Authorities have not publicly established that the family disappeared as a result of a confirmed criminal act.
Earlier statements from investigators indicated that they had not found evidence of foul play, while also making clear that it had not been completely ruled out. The investigation therefore remains unresolved.
It is important not to present theories about the family’s disappearance as established facts.
FBI Offers Reward for Information
The FBI is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information that leads to the safe recovery of Abigail, Koa and Kush Bernstein.
Investigators are particularly interested in information that could establish where the family has been living or traveling since they were last seen.
