Don’t say we didn’t warn you. In our Nov. 13, 2014 and Jan. 29, 2015 cover stories, we reported that the financial situation at Maui Memorial Medical Center, and the rest of the Maui hospital region as a whole, was pretty grim.

According to Wesley Lo, the Maui region CEO for the Hawaii Health Systems Corporation (HHSC)–which oversees hospitals throughout Hawaii–the Maui region will likely end fiscal year 2015 with a $46.3 million deficit. Last year, the region saw a $38.2 million loss. Next year, Lo said during a Nov. 10, 2014 public hearing in Kahului, hospitals in Maui County will lose nearly $40 million, and another $46 million in 2017.

“Current budget estimates anticipate that the deficits will continue to grow exponentially year after year,” stated a Nov. 5 Maui Memorial press release. “This may leave [the] Maui County population vulnerable to drastic cuts in available services and jobs, and families with little other option than to fly to Oahu for care.”

Well, the HHSC Maui Region Board approved $28 million in cuts to services and positions at their meeting last week.

“As administrators, as parents and involved citizens in this community, this is a path we have refused to accept in response to the continued financial shortfalls of our region, however, it is now time to address this issue head on, and that involves accepting the reality of our situation,” Lo said in a Mar. 27 news release. “The cuts to our hospitals, facilities, staffing and services we provide our communities, will set us back 20 years.”

Though alarming, the news release was vague on specifics. For instance, it noted that while the region would “immediately” cut 50-75 “non-clinical administrative positions,” these cuts would “only save the region a nominal amount compared to the

shortfall cited by the board.”

Lo was more specific in a Mar. 28 Maui News story, saying current services like the valet parking and public food service would go. According to the paper, cuts to “oncology, cardiology, obstetrics and gynecology” are also “on the table.”

If you’ve been paying attention for the last few months, you’re probably asking why the Maui Region is suddenly–after years of running deficits that the state Legislature has steadily refused to make up with appropriations–only now making big cuts.

A big part of the reason might be that HB 1075–a bill that would authorize “the Maui Regional System to enter into an agreement with a private entity to transition one or more of its facilities into a new private Hawaii nonprofit corporation”–is still making its way through the state Legislature.

Though certainly not guaranteed to pass into law, the bill is still very much alive.

According to The Maui News, Lo “acknowledged that opponents of the bill may consider the budget cut an attempt to sway legislators, but he believes that ‘any businessman should plan for this eventuality.’”

Of course, should HB 1075 pass, Lo said the board would “re-evaluate” the cuts, The Maui News reported.

After nearly five years of work, 10 public hearings throughout Hawaii and the submission of 12,375 pieces of testimony, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is proposing to expand the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary, both in terms of geographic size and mission.

“This proposal is the result of a multiyear collaborative effort that involved considerable input from all sectors of the local community,” said Malia Chow, the sanctuary superintendent, in a Mar. 25 NOAA news release. “We welcome further public review and input into our proposed new management plan as we move forward with the important job of managing this special place which is

designed to protect a single species (in this case, humpback whales) and more towards what it’s calling “ecosystem-based management,” which I take as meaning that it would protect all the species (or “resources,” in NOAA-speak) in the sanctuary.

“The ecosystem-based management approach, as proposed, is backed by science and is consistent with the traditional Hawaiian approach to managing natural and cultural resources,” states the NOAA news release. “NOAA works closely with the state of Hawai‘i, local communities and various stakeholders to protect Hawaii’s natural and cultural resources.”

To facilitate this, the sanctuary boundaries would expand to include 235.2 additional square miles. And to better reflect the new mission, the sanctuary name itself would change, to the “Hawaiian Islands National Marine Sanctuary–Na Kai ‘Ewalu” (the later portion of the name is a Hawaiian reference to the waters that both divide

Big changes

critical to both the regional economy and communities in Hawai‘i.”

According to the voluminous Management Plan Review Documents (posted online on Mar. 20), NOAA is proposing that the sanctuary move away from an entity

and connect the Hawaiian islands).

The Sanctuary will hold public hearings around Hawaii starting later this month on their proposed changes. Here’s the schedule for the Maui County hearings: April 29, 5:30-8pm: Kihei Youth Center, 131 S. Kihei Rd.

Overheard

April 30, 5-7:30pm: Kaunoa Senior Center, 788 Pauoa St., Lahaina May 1, 4-6:30pm: Lanikeha Community Center, 2200 Farrington Ave., Kaunakakai May 2, 9:30am-12pm: Lanai High and Elementary School, 555 Fraser Ave., Lanai City

ATTENTION Keokeagulch2013 is searching for and asking for help from anyone who has knowledge of the following: We believe that sometime in 1972 an illegal diversion was built on the Keokea gulch on Haleakala Ranch property just above the site where the Kihei Wastewater Treatment Facility was to be built (1975). This diversion was built by a developer or a developer and others and done illegally to get around the Clean Water Act of 1972. This was built without an Environmental Impact Statement, a Stream Channel Alteration Proposal, or any building permits, inspections, or the establishment of an easement for the water, which subsequently flooded our neighbors. The County of Maui facilitated this building project, requiring none of the above required County, State, and Federal permits and then proceeded to entangle the state of Hawaii Department of Transportation having them construct a bridge for this illegally displaced water at the new site where it passed under the new Piilani Highway (1971 to 1980); a site approximately 1200 feet west of the old stream bed. Since its construction, this has been hidden from FEMA / NFIP resulting in flood insurance being forced upon our neighborhood. This inappropriate tax has resulted in a cost of several million dollars over the last 34 years.

We have recently filed a complaint with the State of Hawaii and the US Attorney General’s offices as the County has done nothing to correct the problem and wasted 2 years obstructing our attempts to resolve this through normal governmental channels.

Any information that you can offer about the people, developers, or County officials who participated would be greatly appreciated. Please e-mail us at keokeagulch2013@ gmail.com. If you do not wish to leave a name, leave a 4 digit number and if we feel that your information will help in correcting the risk to our community from this inadequately constructed and never maintained diversion, we will publish that number in a subsequent ad.

Thank you for your help and your courage to do so.

GOODWILL OPENS NEW KAHULUI DONATION CENTER After a brief absence, donations to Goodwill can once again be made in Kahului. Goodwill Industries of Hawaii has opened a new donation center on the mauka side of Kahului Shopping Center. The POD at the corner of South Pu‘unene Ave. and West Kamehameha Ave. will be operated by Goodwill staff seven

days a week, from 9am to 5pm.

The “Big Blue Box” will accept clothes, toys, books and other household goods. All donations received will stay in the community and will be sold at the Maui Goodwill store, located at 250 Alamaha St. Suite N9.

“We are excited to have a new convenient location right here in Kahului for anyone to donate their goods,” said store manager Stephanie Holloway. “When you donate to Goodwill, you are helping us create jobs for the community.”

Revenues from the sale of donations will directly support Goodwill’s job training and job placement programs; in the past year, Goodwill placed more than 1,700 individuals in jobs and served more than 13,000 people in Hawaii.

A full list of store locations and donation centers can be found at Higoodwill.org.

COUNTY OF MAUI OFFERING NEW INFOSHARING MOBILE APP In an effort to better connect residents with county services, the County of Maui is now offering a free mobile phone app that would allow people to alert officials to non-emergency problems and then monitor how officials correct those issues, according to a county news release sent out on Mar. 30.

“Powered by SeeClickFix Inc. technology, COMConnect (short for County of Maui Connect) is a place-based reporting platform that allows residents to document neighborhood concerns and improvements alike, ranging from litter and flooding to damaged sidewalks and malfunctioning traffic signals,” states the Mar. 30 county news release. “COMConnect will allow residents to report community issues, as well as view, comment on and vote to fix problems submitted by their neighbors.

Citizens can even create their own ‘watch areas’ to receive notifications about all issues reported in their community, enabling them to follow the progress of all service requests–not just the ones they report.”

The app is available on both Apple and Android platforms. Those who lack mobile phones capable of downloading apps can access the COMConnect services online at Mauicounty.gov/COMConnect.

“Technology has once again made our world a smaller place, and this is a good thing for all of our residents,” said Mayor Alan Arakawa in the news release. “With COMConnect people will be able to participate more and be a part of the process that it takes to run a community.”

I know, there’s a public relations rule that bad news typically drops on Fridays, but scientists rarely adhere to such traditions.

Which is why the University of Hawaii sent us yet another alarming news release on Monday, Mar. 23 on how global sea level rise will cause even more damage to our shorelines than previously estimated.

“For the study, published this week in Natural Hazards, the research team developed a simple model to assess future erosion hazards under higher sea levels– taking into account historical changes of Hawai‘i shorelines and the projected acceleration of sea level rise reported from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC),” states the Mar. 23 UH news release. “The results indicate that coastal erosion of Hawai‘i’s beaches may double by mid-century.”

We’re not talking big changes centuries from now–the new UH research indicates that those living and working near the shore will see considerable erosion in the next few decades.

“This means that the average amount of shoreline recession roughly doubles

by 2050 with increased SLR [sea-level rise], compared to historical extrapolation alone,” said Tiffany Anderson, the study’s lead author and a post-doctoral researcher at the UHM School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology, in the news release. “By 2100, it is nearly 2.5 times the historical extrapolation. Further, our results indicate that approximately 92% and 96% of the shorelines will be retreating by 2050 and 2100, respectively, except at Kailua, O‘ahu, which is projected to begin retreating by mid-century.”

There is some slim hope: the new study shows exactly which beaches will see the worst erosion, allowing the “thousands” of exposed residents to see how much their neighborhoods will change.

“This study demonstrates a methodology that can be used by many shoreline communities to assess their exposure to coastal erosion resulting from the climate crisis,” said Chip Fletcher, Associate Dean at the UHM School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology and co-author of the paper, in the news release.

“Mapping historical shoreline change provides useful data for assessing exposure to future erosion hazards, even if the rate of sea level rise changes in the future,” stated the news release. “The predicted increase in erosion will threaten thousands of homes, many miles of roadway and other assets in Hawai‘i. Globally the asset exposure to erosion is enormous.”

Eaton’s marketing and communication experience has served her well in several leadership roles including Director of Development and Marketing for Cabrillo Music Theatre, a nonprofit musical theater company in Southern California.

“Alexis’s strong marketing and communication skills will continue to position the resort for great success,” Havens said.

Eaton earned a bachelor’s degree from the University of California, Los Angeles and Masters in Business Administration from California Lutheran University.

Researchers are now preparing a study seeking to confirm that dog slobber, by itself (and not just the psychological advantages of playing with and petting a dog), might provide human health benefits (such as relief from asthma, allergies and inflammation). Specialists from the University of Arizona and University of California San Diego point to existing evidence of the comparative healthiness of dog-owning families and suspect that canine saliva, like yogurt, may have unusual probiotic value.

INDIA JUSTICE Since News of the Weird last visited the judicial backlog in India (2013), the problem has worsened. The open caseload grew to 31,367,915 by the end of that year–a quantity that, if all of the country’s judges, working around the clock, each resolved 100 cases an hour, it would still take 35 years to clear. Bloomberg Business Week reported in January that lawyers needlessly fatten the backlog with multiple filings, mainly to jack up their fees (and thus encouraging “extortion threats,” in place of “law,” as the preferred method of resolving disputes).

TEXAS JUSTICE Death-penalty opponents have long sought a clear-cut case in which an obviously innocent person was wrongfully executed, and unsurprisingly, the great state of Texas appears about to provide that, in Cameron Todd Willingham (convicted in 1992 and executed in 2004). Since his trial, the arson evidence “proving” murder has been thoroughly discredited, and recently an ex-cellmate’s 1996 letter surfaced–demanding that his own prosecutor comply with the sentence-reduction he was promised if he claimed that Willingham had “confessed” to him (and in fact the cellmate’s sentence was substantially reduced after he wrote the letter, though the cellmate later appeared grievously remorseful). Prosecutor John Jackson is facing a state investigation for not disclosing the sentencing promise before trial.

ELF JUSTICE Public policymaking in the United States is often gridlocked by recalcitrant ideologues, but at least administrators are not constrained by elves, as in Iceland. After seven years of controversy, the country’s Road Administration recently approved a new pathway near Reykjavik that had been delayed by a troublesome, 70-ton boulder in the right-of-way–which could not be dislodged because it is believed to be a “church” for the country’s legendary “hidden people.” The elves’ leading spokeswoman, Ragnhildur Jonsdottir, finally declared, to officials’ relief, that the elves had accepted the boulder’s relocation (to the side of the road), having

“been preparing for this for a long time, moving their energy to the new location.”

GREAT MAYO PROTESTS OF 2015 Four weeks ago, News of the Weird noted that a United Nations representative opposed a suggestion to open certain meetings to the public, fearing that it would only invite spectators in the gallery to throw “mayonnaise” at the delegates.

However, two months earlier (and unknown to News of the Weird), the Belgian prime minister, defending his country’s austerity measures, had faced a group of protesters who had rained upon him french fries topped with mayonnaise.

RECURRING THEMES Japan may have its cat restaurants (where loaner felines lounge during meals) and even its penguin bar in Ikebukuro, and London (as reported here a month ago) an experimental owl cafe (with specially domesticated birds perched on diners’ shoulders), but not to be outdone, an entrepreneur in Seoul, South Korea, guesses that his Thanks to Nature Cafe will be a big hit–with sheep wandering through the dining room.

(After all, according to the lunar calendar, 2015 is the Chinese zodiac Year of the Sheep.) Owner Lee Kwang-ho said his novel business model has attracted visitors from Macedonia, Saudi Arabia and New Zealand, among other countries.

HOME UNIMPROVEMENT Fred Horne of Columbus, Ohio, burned down his house in February trying to smoke the bedbugs out of his couch. Only that one piece of furniture caught fire, but carrying it out of the house, Horne got stuck in a doorway, and the blaze spread. And near Darwin, Australia, in February, an unnamed woman living in an RV came face-to-face with a snake and decided to encourage the serpent to leave–by lighting a fire beneath the RV’s floor. The vehicle was destroyed but, said the police superintendent, “we don’t know what happened to the snake.”

SUPPORTING THE TROOPS Federal law prohibits foreclosures and repossessions (unless by court order) against active-duty military members, but Americans would hardly know that from observing creditors. A 2012 Government Accountability Office report found at least 15,000 violations by U.S. financial institutions, small and large, including JP Morgan Chase (violations News of the Weird reported in 2011). In February, auto lender Santander Consumer USA agreed to pay $9.35 million to settle charges that it illegally seized cars of 760 service-members (some while deployed in war zones) over the last five years. ■

MPD OFFICERS WILL SOON START

WEARING BODY CAMERAS

BUT ARE THEY JUST A

TROJAN HORSE FOR INCREASED POLICE

SURVEILLANCE?

By Anthony Pignataro

T

he Maui Police Department will soon equip at least some of its officers with body cameras, the department announced on Mar. 20.

“The Plans, Training, Research and Development Section has scheduled a one month feasibility study on the use of body-worn cameras,” stated the department’s press release.

“The study is scheduled to begin on Monday, April 6, 2015. The results of the study will assist the Maui Police Department in making informed decisions about the implementation of this technology in the future.”

And that’s all the department had to say on the matter. When I sent an email with five follow-up questions a few minutes later, MPD spokesman Lt. William Juan refused to answer any of them. “There is no other information to be released at this time,” he said, though he did later confirm that the department’s Traffic Section has already equipped one of its vehicles with a dashboard camera.

Though Mainland police departments have been moving towards cameraequipped officers for years, the news that Maui may follow suit is still surprising.

Remember, this is the same department that considers photographing its officers in public a crime–in November 2012, MPD officers arrested MauiTime Publisher Tommy Russo for trying to photograph them during a traffic stop (though a judge threw out the case, the county Prosecutor’s Office is appealing the decision).

Despite the short shrift the MPD gave the project in its news release, this is a very big deal. All over the nation, heightened awareness of police shootings has led many to see the placing of cameras on cops as a way to increase accountability and lessen tensions between officers and the citizens they’re sworn to protect.

For that reason, in late 2014 President

10 APRIL 2, 2015

Barack Obama committed $263 million in federal funding to pay for 50,000 that would go to police departments around the country. U.S. Senator Brian Schatz, D–Hawaii, recently announced that he would support the 2015 Police Camera Act, which would provide further grants for departments that want to equip their officers with cameras. Locally, House Bill 365 HD1–which is still threading its way through the Hawaii state Legislature– would start a pilot body-worn camera program with the Honolulu PD. Even so, the cameras remain very controversial. Some–notably police boosters–see the cameras as unnecessary intrusions on legitimate law enforcement work and worry they’ll shatter whatever trust remains between citizen and cop. Others look on the cameras as threats to citizen privacy–yet more steps toward an all-powerful police state that will use the footage to crush protests and civil liberties.

In truth, the use of cameras is still too new and haphazard to draw any generalizations about either their potential usefulness or dangers. That being said, there is enough data out there now that we can at least know what we should be aware of when the 449-member MPD begins their camera project.

What will this cost?

Who knows, but these things aren’t cheap. “The price of body-worn cameras currently ranges from approximately $120 to nearly $2,000 for each device,” stated the 2014 report Implementing a Body-Worn Camera Program, produced by the U.S. Department of Justice’s Community Oriented Police Services (COPS) and the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF). “Most of the agencies that PERF consulted spent between

$800 and $1,200 for each camera. Prices vary depending on factors such as functionality, storage capacity, and battery life.”

Storing all that footage can also be pretty expensive.

Will the cameras reduce tensions and violent encounters between cops and civilians?

This is the billion-dollar question. At least some departments around the nation are saying yes.

Last year, the San Diego Police Department deployed about 600 cameras. On Mar. 18 of this year, Deputy Chief David Ramirez told the San Diego City Council that the cameras had definitely made life better for everyone. According to Ramirez’s report to the City Council, complaints against cops dropped 40.5 percent and use of force incidents dropped 46.5 percent since the cameras hit the streets.

“Body worn camera technology is a win-win for the both the officer and the community,” Ramirez stated in his report.

“Although only implemented for a relatively short period of time, the results are very promising, showing a reduction in citizen complaints, allegations, and a reduction of some use of force applications.”

The small town of Rialto, also in California, began using cameras in 2012, randomly assigning body cameras to officers over the course of 988 shifts. According to the 2014 COPS report, “there was a 60 percent reduction in officer use of force incidents following camera deployment, and during the experiment, the shifts without cameras experienced twice as many use of force incidents as shifts with cameras.” What’s more, “there was an 88 percent reduction in the number of citizen complaints between the year prior to camera implementation and the year following deployment.” When asked to explain the

amazing results, Chief of Police William Farrar of Rialto said, “Whether the reduced number of complaints was because of the officers behaving better or the citizens behaving better—well, it was probably a little bit of both,” according to the COPS/PERF report.

Are all departments reporting such great results?

Not quite. Like Rialto, the Albuquerque Police Department have used body-worn cameras since 2012. Unlike Rialto, the Albuquerque PD still has a violent reputation–so much so that the Justice Department reported in April 2014 that “Albuquerque police officers often use deadly force in circumstances where there is no imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm to officers or others.”

According to a Mar. 24, 2015 ACLU blog post, “the rate of police shootings [in Albuquerque] is 4 per 100,000 people–that’s ten times higher than the rate of New York City.”

Why is Albuquerque still having so many problems?

According to the ACLU, it’s because their officers often turn the cameras off. “There was one case–Christopher Torres–where police shot an unarmed man in the back, in his back yard, while he was in his pajamas,” states the Mar. 24, 2015 ACLU blog post. “In that case, they simply didn’t turn the footage in. And that was just valid and acceptable to them. And there was the case of Mary Hawkes, a 19-year-old unarmed girl who was shot in [the] back by a police officer, who didn’t turn on the camera in that case.”

Police officers can simply turn off the cameras in the field?

Yes. Though department policies vary on this, the COPS/PERF report found that

Wouldn’t a body-worn camera that’s running all the time violate civilians’ privacy as well?

There’s certainly that concern–especially when police officers enter people’s homes.

When coupled with facial-detection software, there’s the possibility of wholesale violations of civil liberties. This is already being done in Calgary, Canada, though police there insist that they take privacy considerations seriously. “We have built in and engineered all of these systems the–body worn camera and the facial recognition– with those privacy considerations,” Calgary police spokesman Kevin Brookwell told the Canadian news site Global News in November 2014.So allowing cops to turn off cameras is the best policy?

Not according to the ACLU. “You don’t

want to give officers a list and say, ‘Only record the following 10 types of situations,’” said Scott Greenwood, an attorney with the ACLU, in the COPS/PERF report. “You want officers to record all the situations, so when a situation does go south, there’s an unimpeachable record of it—good, bad, ugly, all of it. This is an optimal policy from a civil liberties perspective.”

In fact, some police departments seem to agree with Greenwood. “I disagree that cameras hurt community relationships,” said Rialto Chief of Police William Farrar in the COPS/PERF report. “We have not seen any evidence of that. People will ask officers if they have a camera on, but it does not seem to bother them.”

But the camera footage does have the capability of quelling controversy in officer-involved shootings, right?

Hopefully, but it’s unlikely because police officers and civilians will likely see the footage very differently. In a Jan. 22, 2015 NPR story, reporter Mar-

Can body-worn cameras do any good?

Sure. They’ve actually proven useful in police officer training. “Many police agencies are discovering that body-worn cameras can serve as a useful training tool to help improve officer performance,” states the COPS/PERF report. “For example, agencies are using footage from body-worn cameras to provide scenariobased training, to evaluate the performance of new officers in the field, and to identify new areas in which training is needed. By using body-worn cameras in this way, agencies have the opportunity to raise standards of performance when it comes to tactics, communication, and customer service. This can help increase the perceived legitimacy and sense of procedural justice that communities have about their police departments.”

And when used by a department that forces officers to keep the camera rolling all the time, they can be pretty useful in weeding out bad cops.

“In Daytona Beach, Chief Chitwood requested that the officers with a history of complaints be among the first to be outfitted

Smile!

tin Kaste explored the 2014 South Carolina shooting in which a state trooper shot and killed an unarmed man at a gas station. The footage “shows a man who was reaching for his ID–a completely unprovoked shooting, to a civilian’s eyes,” Kaste reported. But a police officer Kaste interviewed looked at the same footage and saw something completely different.

“I felt my stomach tense up because I’ve seen that–and this has nothing to do with whether the incident was justified or not– but, I’ve seen that kind of quick movement before, where people have emerged with a weapon,” San Francisco PD Sergeant Adam Plantinga told Kaste. “[People] may wipe their hands on their pants, they may lower their head [or] lower their jaw to protect their neckline–sort of unconscious human behavior that means that there could be violence at any time.”

This is critical: there is no concrete definition of “excessive force.” Police officers across the country have traditionally been given pretty generous discretion in using deadly force when they feel their lives are in danger–an inherently subjective reason.

It’s why nothing really changed after footage of Eric Garner dying as a result of a chokehold administered by New York cops trying to arrest him.

Speaking of which, how long do departments typically store their footage?

It varies. PERF found that “the most common retention time for non-evidentiary video” was 60-90 days, though some held onto such footage for less time. In fact, PERF found that the department in Fort Collins, Colorado discarded some of their non-evidentiary footage after just a week (assuming it wasn’t used in enforcement action). The COPS/PERF report also found that the Albuquerque PD held onto their non-evidentiary camera footage for a year.

To be honest, storage is difficult, though cloud solutions do exist. And there is the potential for tampering with the footage. In a December 2014 Atlantic story “Seen It All Before: 10 Predictions About Police Body Cameras,” Robinson Meyer told the story of Oakland University (Michigan) sociology professor Albert J. Meehan’s experience trying to research one department’s VHS archive.

“Close to a quarter were degaussed,” he told Meyer, meaning the tapes had been erased. “These technologies try to design and decrease opportunities for human resistance. But typically police departments still provide an off switch.”

Will such camera footage be accessible to the public?

most departments allow officers discretion in turning off the cameras. Their reason is usually that that cameras foster mistrust between civilians and officers.

“Trust builds through relationships, and body-worn cameras start from a position of mistrust,” said Detective Bob Cherry of the Baltimore Police Department, who is also the president of the Baltimore City Fraternal Order of Police, in the COPS/ PERF report. “The comments I hear from some officers are, ‘I’m worried that if I wear a camera, it is going to make it hard to continue the relationship I have with a business owner or the lady down the street. These are the people I’m working with now to clean up the neighborhood.’”

The COPS/PERF report also quoted one Mesa, Arizona officer as saying that cameras actually undermined legitimate police work.

“We have definitely seen people being more reluctant to give information when they know that they are being videotaped,” said Mesa PD Lieutenant Harold Rankin in the report.

Greensboro, North Carolina Police Chief Ken Miller seems to agree. “There are a lot of issues with recording every citizen contact without regard to how cooperative or adversarial it is,” Miller said in the COPS/ PERF report. “If people think that they are going to be recorded every time they talk to an officer, regardless of the context, it is going to damage openness and create barriers to important relationships.”

For these reasons, PERF recommends that departments allow officers latitude in turning off cameras. “PERF believes that requiring officers to record every encounter with the public would sometimes undermine community members’ privacy rights and damage important police-community relationships,” stated the COPS/PERF report.

“There are certain situations, such as interviews with crime victims and witnesses and informal, non-law enforcement interactions with members of the community, that call for affording officers some measure of discretion in determining whether to activate their cameras. There are situations in which not recording is a reasonable decision. An agency’s body-worn camera policy should expressly describe these situations and provide solid guidance for officers when they exercise discretion not to record.”

Of course, PERF also recommended that if an officer does turn off a camera, he or she should say–on camera–his or her reason for doing so.

with body-worn cameras,” states the COPS/ PERF report. “Although he found that usually the videos demonstrated that ‘the majority of the officers are hardworking, good police,’ he has also seen how body-worn cameras can help an agency address discipline problems.”

In the report, Chitwood went on to explain: “We had an officer who had several questionable incidents in the past, so we outfitted him with a camera,” he said. “Right in the middle of an encounter with a subject, the camera goes blank, and then it comes back on when the incident is over. He said that the camera malfunctioned, so we gave him another one.

A week later he goes to arrest a woman, and again, the camera goes blank just before the encounter. He claimed again that the camera had malfunctioned. So we conducted a forensic review of the camera, which determined that the officer had intentionally hit the power button right before the camera shut off. Our policy says that if you turn it off, you’re done.

He resigned the next day.”

So how do departments keep their officers honest?

PERF recommends that departments undertake regular, random compliance checks of the footage, though they also recommend that the department’s internal audit review–and not the regular chain of command–perform the audits.

Again, it varies, and PERF recommends a middle ground course of action with some exemptions to disclosure. “These exceptions to public disclosure can help police departments to avoid being required to release videos if doing so could jeopardize a criminal prosecution,” states their report. “The exceptions can also help police to protect the privacy of crime victims and witnesses.”

Of course, PERF also states that departments should “apply these exceptions judiciously to avoid any suspicion by community members that police are withholding video footage to hide officer misconduct or mistakes.”

Given how the Maui PD hasn’t exactly been forthcoming with information about their upcoming body-worn camera tests–and how State of Hawaii law exempts bad cop records from disclosure under the state’s open records law–I wouldn’t be optimistic.

Are body-worn cameras for police officers here to stay?

Most likely, yes. “Some prosecutors have started encouraging police departments to use body-worn cameras to capture more reliable evidence for court, particularly in matters like domestic violence cases that can be difficult to prosecute,” the COPS/PERF report pointed out. What’s more, judges and juries on the Mainland are starting to rely on such camera footage. In fact, one Baltimore detective even told PERF, “Juries no longer want to hear just officer testimony– they want to see the video.”

Of course, this has limitations. Video footage can be very important evidence in deadly force incidents, but its existence shouldn’t detract from other evidence like an officer’s training, police work and work history. Nor should it replace officer testimony in court. ■ editor@mauitime.com + @apignataro For more news, visit: mauitime.com/news

Sip and Savor JOEY’S PLACE You may recognize Chef Joey Macadangdang from Roy’s Ka’anapali, but now he’s opened his own restaurant in Whaler’s Village in the former Ruby’s Dinette spot (which years ago was a McDonald’s). Macadangdang wanted to focus on taking Filipino cuisine to the next level, but in a fast casual setting.

“We knew from the beginning we wanted to highlight some Filipino foods,” says Macadangdang. “Before we had Hawaiian Regional Cuisine, nobody understood what Hawaii-inspired Filipino-Asian cuisine is. So Filipino cuisine is becoming recognized along with Hawaiian Regional Cuisine. As I build this restaurant, I am definitely going to go into that Filipino fusion. We already serve the pancit, embutido [and] we have lumpia. We will add Kare Kare for sure. We also specialize in fresh island fish.”

Macadangdang says some of his other dishes you should try are the bulgogi beef hoagie roll, with slaw, Swiss cheese, kim chee and Datu Puti Miso; the Huli Huli Chicken plate; and the JK’s Ramen with poached egg and spiced pork belly.

I’ve already fallen in love with the flavors in his Embutito loco moco Filipino meatloaf.

It’s seasoned and tender with a sunny-side egg and hollandaise on top. It appears on the breakfast menu for $9.95 with steamed or fried rice, but Macadangdang says you can get it anytime. I also must have the Sinigang again. The braised short ribs with sayote tips, baby corn, bok choy, mushrooms, local pep-

per and ginger in a tamarind broth was so good I will order extra to bring home.

Joey’s Kitchen also has several fish preparations, from the wasabi pea ahi sandwich with arugula and pickled Maui onion, and cajun mahi sando with garlic aioli. His fish plates with rice and salad are served in the Chef’s Daily Preparation, with mahi, ono or ahi. The fish and chips plate of tempura mahi is also fresh fish, made to order.

Other menu items to try are his Benedicts

of the Day, Omelet Your Way, Caesar salad and fried Brussels sprout salads. Prices start around $4 for sides and sandwiches while plates range from $7.95 to $14.95. Joey’s Kitchen opens at 7:30am and goes until 9pm.

DOG & DUCK QUIZ NIGHT! Darts and shuffleboard are my kinda bar games but I wasn’t going to let that get in the way of having a lot of fun at Dog & Duck’s weekly Quiz Night. After grabbing a willing friend, Teri Edmonds from If the Shoe Fits, we put our two coconuts together to form one of the many teams that came down for the Kihei bar’s popular Thursday night trivia competition.

Round One is always current events (which includes sports). Round Two is gen-

eral knowledge. Then there’s also a Picture Round hooked to that week’s theme. Finally, there’s a Music Round. What you don’t know, you make up in smart ass-y sarcastic answers.

The hosts, Laura Mendolia and Al Garr, have written all of the questions every seven days for the last five years. They say it’s still fun, even though every week they also have to come up with a new theme.

The week I jumped in it was Disney, some other fun ones have been Mardi Gras

masks, “Boobs, Butt or Shoulder” and famous moms. The final Thursday of the month they raffle off a grand prize for the top five teams at quiz night. Last Thursday, the Aquaholics team took home a whale watch for six with Boss Hogs.

There are just a few rules: no smartphones and no more than six to a team.

“No using smartphones unless you’re checking your Tinder,” Garr said.

I quenched my thirsty quiz cells with Guinness and Harp but there are plenty of other beverages at Dog & Duck to keep your whistle wet. I also dug into a dinner of great pub fare: veggie platter, spring rolls, French fries and wings. Drink specials start at $3.

Nightly sponsors like Jagermeister and A Makebelieve Co. bring in schwag and giveaways. Teams earned extra credit last Thursday by trying on a tiny crop top that looked like it was made for a baby. Quiz Night happens every Thursday at 7pm at the pub, but chances are there might be a similar event near you.

Mulligan’s has Quiz Night on Thursdays at 10pm, hosted by Trish the Dish, and Lahaina Sports Bar hosts a Quiz Night on Mondays.

Just Rent 'Silver Streak' Or '48 HRS' Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart slum it in ‘Get Hard’ ★★★★★ Rated R / 100 Min.

B

efore I talk about Get Hard, the terminally lousy new comedy starring Will Ferrell and Kevin Hart, let me write about a similar movie I like a lot. There’s a famous scene in Silver Streak, the 1976 comedy that was the first to pair Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder. Midway through the movie, Pryor and Wilder are on the run from cops, who corner them at a train station and aim to prevent them from escaping on a departing locomotive. Pryor comes up with a unique getaway plan: he’s going to take Wilder into the men’s room and teach him “how to be black.” In addition to showing Wilder some over-the-top stereotypes, he covers his face with shoe polish, gives him a “jive” disguise and instructs him how to sneak past the cops.

Wilder’s performance more than fools the authorities, but, even in the late ‘70s, his “act” is pretty offensive. What makes the scene so hilarious are the reaction shots of Pryor, looking mortified by the

“monster” he created. There’s also a shot of African-Americans in the station who are appalled at Wilder’s routine, while the Caucasians on hand don’t seem to notice. The scene is as un-PC as it gets but I think it works because it’s addressing and mocking the stereotypes it portrays.

Get Hard is like a film-length extension of that scene in Silver Streak. Ferrell is a dopey businessman who must serve time in San Quentin Prison and foolishly hires Hart, playing the man who washes his car, to teach him how to be tough in jail. Hart’s character has never been in prison and isn’t tough at all but a mildmannered family man who Ferrell thinks went to prison just because he’s black.

The set-up suggests a twist on a classic buddy comedy scenario and aims to spoof issues of race, the ignorance of privileged One-Percenters and how stereotypes, racial and otherwise, taint our understanding of the truth. Ferrell’s racist belief that most African-Americans have been to jail is countered by Hart’s “teaching” him all he knows about jail. I laughed at what looks like an improvised bit with Ferrell reciting tough guy

Seriously, I need a better agent

putdowns and I was amused how Ferrell’s staff and lavish home become facsimiles for a prison community.

Somewhere around the time Ferrell dons “hood” gear, makes friends with the Crenshaw Mafia and learns to be a “gangsta,” I gave up. The intent of sending up racist stereotypes gave way to fully embracing them. I hated scenes of Steve Martin (in a career low) going to “the hood” in Bringing Down The House and it’s equally depressing watching Ferrell slum it on the same path.

Ferrell played a similar white collar, lovable doofus in The Other Guys.

Here, he’s done in by bad material.

Ferrell will likely brush this misstep off but I’m worried about Hart, a hardworking, talented comic actor, who has been appearing in some unfortunate

vehicles of late.

Hart clearly wants to be the next Eddie Murphy, as evidenced by a moment that tries hard to mimic a key scene in 48 HRS; that film had a tense, rousing scene where Murphy walks into a redneck bar and intimidates everyone present. Here, Hart stands up against a group of white supremacists with a flamethrower and only demonstrates how Murphy and director Walter Hill did it better 33 years ago.

An hour in, this becomes a parade of unfunny gags, served by two comic actors who can’t mine laughs from rotten material. In addition to the Minstrel show-ready gags, there’s also a scene where Ferrell attempts to learn fellatio, one of many moments where an attempt to be edgy comes across as truly ugly. ■

Horoscope

Sign Language ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19)

You’re like a lawyer with illegally-obtained evidence.

You know the guy you’re after is guilty as hell but since you’re not supposed to know, you can’t nail him like he deserves. This is what happens when you don’t act entirely on the up-and-up. If you’ve already buried the bad evidence and done your best to forget about it, then ignore the following advice. If, however, you are forging ahead based on suspicions and distrust, please cease and desist immediately. Down that road only lies more misery, heartbreak, and pain—and almost no satisfaction.

Either forgive and forget or just walk away.

TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20)

When you get asked to slow dance (or something like it) this week, say yes, whether it’s a mysterious stranger or a newly-attractive old friend. There’s a spark of interest where there wasn’t one before, for reasons both of you find unfathomable, but whether that glimmer will develop into a full-blown romance is anybody’s guess. Let this thing be what it is; this ember could develop into quite a merry little campfire, with much fun had by all—but too much or too little air and it’ll just go right out.

GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20)

Tip your hat to the audience. Better yet, pass it around.

Random strangers are ready to reward you with cold hard cash, as well as their usual adoring attention. I urge you, however: don’t slack off just because you’ve got a hit act. Instead, take this opportunity to really tighten up your performance. In other words, when your fans are ready to give you a standing ovation for farting in the right direction, you might as well use the opportunity to take some real risks and end up doing better for yourself (and all those who depend on, adore, and support you) than you have in ages.

this half-unconscious attention? You’ve been more amazing, inspiring, or daunting than you can guess.

What should you do with all this rented brain space in other people’s heads? Justify it. Use it to inspire you to new heights; give your private admirers (or despisers) the over-the-top jack-off fantasy they always wanted.

Safety is a sickness your tribe needs the cure for.

Not all of you, fortunately, but too many of you have succumbed to its unhealthy allure. If you’re cautious, reasonable, and safe all the time, you end up being a boring person leading a boring life. You shouldn’t need to be drunk to let loose and take risks. This is not a recommendation to become reckless and put yourself in crazy danger all the time. But putting yourself in some slight danger is highly recommended. After all, what the hell is the point of a life without adventure?

LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22)

At your best you’re so good for people you’re like deliciously irresistible chocolate cake that helps them lose weight, or a mirror that makes them feel good about themselves. Everyone benefits. Sadly, when you’re at your worst, you’re pretty much the only one who suffers, usually from some form of self-destructive behavior or another. I mention this because you may feel the temptation to wallow this week, but I urge you to resist it—if not for your sake, for the sakes of all the sweethearts who benefit when you’re shining like a sun, not collapsing inward like a black hole.

VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22)

Your magic number this week is 69; you’ve got both ends occupied. If only you could get your giant heart into the action your head and loins are engaged in, you’d be all set. That’s harder than it sounds, however, especially when you’re so distracted by, ahem, other activity. However, I do believe it’s possible (and important) to find ways to express how you’re feeling, even with your mouth full. For instance, you could free up a hand and use sign language, or grab a pen and write your vivid desires on the nearest available surface (even if it’s your lover’s skin). I trust you’ll find a way.

LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22)

In the darkness of their bedrooms, people are thinking of you. Whether they’re masturbating to your beauty or plotting your downfall is almost irrelevant; the fact that you’re a powerful thought-magnet these days is what’s important. What have you done to deserve all

ANSWERS

...to questions from page 4

1: C–4.4 percent 2: D–7 3: A–0

SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21)

You’re going to bleed this week, and I’m not talking about menstruation, or a paper cut, or anything literal. The wounds you suffer may be painful, nevertheless, despite their invisibility, and the life force that leaches away may feel just like major blood loss. This isn’t a good thing, but don’t dread it. You’re more than capable of surviving a little emotional bloodletting. Besides which, the silver lining more than makes up for a couple days of semi-misery: it’ll remind you to tend wounds you’ve never taken care of enough to properly heal, which is what precipitated this week’s mild crisis in the first place.

WED & FRI 7:30AM

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21)

The winds are blowing the screen door of your soul’s home around on its hinges. That first line of defense is getting slapped around and shaking your house with every forceful bang. This is a not-so-subtle sign that all is not well in Sagittarius-land. This wind could just be blowing the clouds clear so tomorrow’s one of those gorgeous sunny days you’ve been missing. But it could also be the precursor to a housetorqueing twister. You might want to batten down the hatches and head for the cellar with your nearest and dearest, just to be safe. If it turns out to be nothing more than a stiff breeze you can emerge into daylight tomorrow and laugh, but if your emotional living room is pierced by a tree trunk when you come upstairs, you’ll be glad you were underground.

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19)

CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22)

QUIZ understood

A possible warning sign that your intimacy poles are reversed is when your coworkers buy you underwear and your bed partner buys you a gift certificate for underwear. Capricorns are so private by nature that oftentimes near-total strangers can find out more about you by accident than your closest companion can when trying their best. It’s almost like your attitude is: “The more you want to know, the less I’ll tell you.”

Walls go up when sweethearts start prying, so that a casual question about your evening from someone on the bus gets a more honest answer than the same query from your lover. Flip those poles back the way they ought to go. If you must have walls, make sure those you love are on the right side of them.

120 HANA HWY • UPSTAIRS PAIATATTOOPARLOR.COM

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18)

Your brakes are slammed to the baseboard this week. Slow the hell down! By forcing yourself to go fast now despite all the resistance from your own emotional wheels, you’ll not only exhaust yourself, you’ll also wear down those metaphorical brake pads, and the next time you want to slow down or stop and turn around, you simply won’t be able to, or you’ll have to crash into someone, just to decelerate. Don’t freak when you get behind the place where you hoped you’d be by now. It’s a long, long race. You’ll have ample opportunity to make up for lost time, later, when it makes more sense.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20)

Everyone you know is privy to some inside joke that you’re on the outside of. At least, that’s what it feels like. However, I urge you to take a closer look around.

No one is actually snickering behind his hand or smirking and winking across the room when you’re not looking. You may be just ever-so-slightly paranoid this week, thanks to some tricky astrological influences. Push through without flipping out by giving everyone the benefit of the doubt, and your ego the slightly rough rubdown it needs (by assuring it that whatever “it” is, it’s not all about you). Also, trust that if there is a joke you’re not getting, it’s not all that funny.
