A contested case hearing will be held to determine if two HPD officers accused of causing a serious crash will get a city-funded legal defense.

Marquis Green was found guilty by a jury after a trial that dragged on for nearly a decade.

The charter amendments need support from six of nine City Council members to be added to the November ballot.

HPD data shows that domestic violence-related complaints have historically made up a notable portion of criminal allegations against officers.

The City Council passed a resolution requesting that HPD inform residents after doing warrantless searches when they're away.

The latest ruling brings the city's costs to about $127,000 in the eight-year-old case.  

The Honolulu prosecutor's office also has opened an independent investigation into the crash.

Testimony in the federal trial of Katherine Kealoha's brother Rudolph Puana has focused on allegations that the anesthesiologist was running a prescription drug ring.

Three Honolulu police officers are accused of causing the crash and leaving the scene without helping the severely injured passengers.

Kealoha's brother, Rudolph Puana, is on trial for allegedly writing opioid prescriptions for his friends to either sell or trade for cocaine.
