Details of Disappearance
Takoda and his sister Tiana have been missing from Portland, Oregon since January 15, 2004. Their parents, Brett Weed and Kyoko Oda, are divorced. With the court's permission, Kyoko moved back to her native Japan with the children in January 2004. Brett was supposed to be given visitation time, phone calls and online contact with the children. Once she arrived in Japan, however, Oda reneged on the custody agreement and cut off Brett's access to the children. Brett obtained full legal and physical custody of the children in July 2005. He hasn't had any contact with them since they went to Japan, however.Photographs and vital statistics for Oda are unavailable. Tiana and Takoda's cases remain unsolved.
