HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - All nine members of the 2017 Honolulu City Council have now testified before a federal grand jury investigating the payoff for disgraced ex-HPD Chief Louis Kealoha.
All of them publicly opposed the deal back then but the Honolulu Police Commission went ahead and approved it anyway after negotiating the $250,000 payoff in secret.
Kym Pine, who was on the council at the time, said the grand jurors had video of the council grilling former commission Chairman Max Sword during a committee meeting four years ago.
