He had waived the right to challenge his extradition during a hearing in Salt Lake City last month. Castro, who is ill, appeared by video from a hospital bed.<\/p>\n<p>While Castro was still awaiting extradition, Honolulu prosecutors told their counterparts in Utah this week that they were not proceeding against him because of &#8220;recent complications involving a material witness in this case and the state of the evidence.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Please understand we view this as only a temporary setback, and we remain fully committed to continuing our efforts to prosecute this matter in the near future,&#8221; Kelsi Guerra, a deputy prosecuting attorney in Honolulu, wrote in a Monday letter to Deputy Salt Lake County District Attorney Clifford Ross.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" alt=\"hawaii-15559172881426519613.jpg \" height=\"324\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/02\/27\/e2c5cf20-e9c1-4fa0-a672-ab19ca7eef47\/thumbnail\/620x324\/d7de33362f5b8f6f6319beddaf19b105\/hawaii-15559172881426519613.jpg?v=906a31f1d4c74cf15e139a5e9bae4f67 1x, https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2025\/02\/27\/e2c5cf20-e9c1-4fa0-a672-ab19ca7eef47\/thumbnail\/1240x648\/f1a04a8d1f35470782736594d22d8168\/hawaii-15559172881426519613.jpg?v=906a31f1d4c74cf15e139a5e9bae4f67 2x\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">Dawn Momohara, left, and a sketch of a person of interest in her murder released by police.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Hawaii Police Department via HawaiiNewsNow<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Utah District Court Judge John Nielsen ordered Castro&#8217;s release late Wednesday afternoon. He was released Thursday, said Chris Bronson, spokesperson for the Salt Lake County Sheriff&#8217;s Office.<\/p>\n<p>On March 21, 1977, shortly after 7:30 a.m., Honolulu police found the body of Momohara on the second floor of a building at McKinley High School. Momohara was partially clothed and lying on her back with an orange cloth tied around her neck,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/live\/vVOnH7Dj--k\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">said<\/a>\u00a0Lt. Deena Thoemmes, of Honolulu Police. A subsequent autopsy ruled Momohara was strangled to death, and the medical examiner said there were signs of sexual assault.<\/p>\n<p>Castro graduated from the Honolulu school in 1976.<\/p>\n<p>An attorney for Castro had said during a hearing last month in Salt Lake City that he intended to fight the charges upon his return to Hawaii, where he is still a resident, according to jail records. It is unclear how long Castro had been in Utah when he was arrested at the nursing home in Millcreek, just south of Salt Lake City.<\/p>\n<p>A McKinley High School graduate who was the school&#8217;s band teacher at the time of Momohara&#8217;s death said he was disappointed to learn of Castro&#8217;s release.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I guess they&#8217;ve got to make sure they have a rock-solid case,&#8221; Grant Okamura said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In a sense I&#8217;m disappointed that they couldn&#8217;t at least go to trial but I can understand their nervousness that they don&#8217;t want to just haphazardly go into something and have it thrown out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Authorities in Hawaii said Thursday that they were continuing with their investigation into Momohara&#8217;s killing. No further information was being released at this time, Honolulu police spokesperson Michelle Yu said.<\/p>\n<p>Following Momohara&#8217;s death, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.honolulupd.org\/cold-case\/dawn-momohara\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">police released sketches<\/a> of a person of interest and a possible vehicle described by witnesses as a 1974 or 1975 Pontiac LeMans. But they were unable to identify a suspect, and the case grew cold.<\/p>\n<p>Several days after Momohara was killed, detectives interviewed Castro. He said he met Momohara at a school dance that year and last saw her at a carnival on campus in February 1977. Police interviewed his brother, who also met Momohara at the dance<\/p>\n<p>In November 2023, Honolulu police went to Chicago, where the brother was living. They &#8220;surreptitiously&#8221; obtained DNA from one of the brother&#8217;s adult children, police said.<\/p>\n<p>Lab findings excluded the brother as a suspect, but a DNA sample from Castro&#8217;s adult son, and later from Castro himself, proved he was responsible, police said.<\/p>\n<p>Castro was arrested last month at the nursing home where he had been living in Millcreek, just south of Salt Lake City, on a fugitive warrant for suspicion of second-degree murder. Jail records indicate he is still a resident of Hawaii, and it is unclear how long he had been living in Utah.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list
