    It was a dangerous proposition. Yet, some residents of Malibu and the Pacific Palisades had well established plans to stay at their homes and fight the Jan. 7 wildfire as it overtook communities.

    HAWAIIAN BEACHES (Island News)-- Albert Lauro Jr. evaded the police for over three decades. But, 33 years after the death of Dana Ireland, police compelled the 57 year old man to take a court ordered DNA test on July 19th. Knowing the results would link his genetic profile to the crime scene, Lauro took his own life at his home in Hawaiian Paradise Park, leaving investigators and the public with the lingering question:Who was Albert Lauro Jr. ?
