. He is believed to have ***** by ********.

Just a few days earlier, Ryan was handing out missing persons flyers to people in the streets of LA as he said he would do everything in his power to find his daughter.

“She’s a wonderful person who brings joy to so many people,” he told reporters at the time.

Ryan had traveled to LA to help search for his daughter, who has been missing since November 8 when she stopped over at Los Angeles International Airport on her way from Hawaii to New York City.

Hannah was set to meet her aunt Geordan Montalvo and her aunt’s husband Bob in New York and they all had tickets to go to a concert on November 12 together. The vacation was described as a bucket list trip.

But, the 30-year-old missed her connecting flight at LAX on November 8.

The following day, she was spotted at a bookstore at The Grove, a popular outdoor mall in LA. One day later, she was seen at a LeBron James event.

On November 11, surveillance video captured her at a downtown Los Angeles Metro stop with a person not known to her family.

that police had waited 10 days after Hannah went missing to contact them as they condemned the slow-moving investigation.

Before she disappeared, Hannah had sent cryptic texts to a friend saying she had been “tricked pretty much into giving away all my funds” to “someone I thought I loved.”

Her sister, Sydni Kobayashi, described the texts as “really weird.” Hannah added that she was scared and couldn’t come back home.
