In the state of Hawaii we can charge it as a second offense because any offenses that occur in other jurisdictions in the United States also qualify.

I charged her as an adult, and that's one of the four or five offenses that you can charge a juvenile as an adult. We weighed the possible punishments that were available in juvenile court, and we didn't think that equalized her involvement in the murder.

Hawaii is not a state of mind, but a state of grace.

Hawaii's the 50th state? I thought it was a suburb of Guam.

Our offense is going to be much slower than we predicted.

We need to make sure that this doesn't occur at other sites around the state.
