"Final Victim of Maui Wildfire Identified: Closure for Community"
TL;DR Summary
Maui police have identified the 100th and final known victim of the deadly Lahaina wildfire as Lydia Coloma, 70, making her the ninth member of her family to be confirmed dead. The scale and intensity of the fire made victim identification extremely difficult, with the death toll initially revised from 115 to 97 due to more precise testing. Now, all 100 individuals have been identified and their families notified, with just three people remaining unaccounted for. The community still faces challenges in rebuilding and recovering from the disaster, including a housing shortage for survivors and disagreement over the disposal of toxic ash and debris.
