In February 1991, Ken Holmgren received a chilling phone call from his father Elmer Holmgren, instructing him to contact the ATF if he didn’t hear from him again. Elmer was working for wealthy couple Sante and Kenneth Kimes, who were involved in criminal activities. Elmer disappeared, and later Sante and her son were convicted for two murders. Elmer was cooperating with the ATF as a witness before his disappearance, but authorities did not seek answers in his case. Evidence related to a suspected arson involving the Kimes was destroyed in the 9/11 attacks, and the case remains unresolved. Sante Kimes died in prison in 2014, while Kenneth Kimes Sr. died in 1994. Kenny Kimes Jr. served a life sentence for his involvement in the murders. The Kimes family lived a lavish life in multiple properties before the fire at their Honolulu home, which was determined to be intentionally set. Elmer disappeared while in protective custody, with the ATF losing track of him. His involvement in the suspected arson was revealed by a friend, but the case remains unsolved. The Kimes family was involved in a series of crimes, and Elmer’s disappearance has left his son frustrated with the lack of answers from authorities.
