Advertiser Staff

A 48-year-old Kapahulu man was charged last night with second-degree murder in connection with the death of a woman whose body was found near an 'Ewa goat farm last week.

Ronald Howe was charged with the murder of Robyn Mae Nakaji, 46, and was being held last night in lieu of $1 million bail. He could face a mandatory life term in prison with parole.

Nakaji's body was found April 23 wrapped in a blanket and tarp near the farm on Old Fort Weaver Road. Her head, mouth and hands were bound with tape.
