More than 1,000 people are reported missing in Maui three weeks after catastrophic wildfires destroyed the town of Lahaina.

Maui Police Chief John Pelletier said that law enforcement plans to release a verified list of people who are unaccounted for in the coming days.

Law enforcement has located 1,400 people so far out of an initial number of 2,500 people reported missing.

The police chief said he cannot guarantee the remains of everyone who perished will be recovered.

This is a disturbing debate with you. And yes, I've talked with many people working in cremation. It was NOT just a brush fire but sure you can have your point.

Like I said, they might find remains. I also posted in my first post they won't find anyone alive which was MY point.

Nobody who was trapped in the fire zone, no.

My point is that if people perished in the fire, they will find their remains.

Taiwan should change its name to Nanking.

Sad part of that picture is all the burned up houses and cars, and just feet away is lots of water.
