Former Honolulu Prosecuting Attorney Keith Kaneshiro has been arrested by the FBI as part of the ongoing massive public corruption probe that resulted in the conviction of ex-Honolulu Police Chief Louis Kealoha and his wife, Katherine.

He self-surrendered to authorities just before 6 a.m. Friday at his condo in Waialae and was escorted by FBI agents.

Kaneshiro received a target letter from the Department of Justice in 2018, when he too became a focus of the case.

He was on paid leave for two years before his term expired and Steve Alm was elected to replace him.

It comes after three former high-ranking city officials were arrested and charged with conspiracy to defraud the U.S. as part of the city’s $250,000 payout to the disgraced former police chief in 2017, despite the fact that he was already a target of a federal investigation.

The three, who all served in the former Mayor Kirk Caldwell administration, are:

• Former city Managing Director Roy Amemiya;
• Ex-Honolulu Police Commissioner Max Sword;
• And former Corporation Counsel Donna Leong, who was the city’s top civil attorney.

Louis Kealoha, meanwhile, is serving a seven-year prison term in Oregon for obstruction, conspiracy and bank fraud ― all crimes committed while he led HPD.
