Editors asleep at the desk– headline states KAIHI as place suspect was found.
omg…proof reading fail
I bet this is not the first car he jacked or the first charge he is facing. Prison as a deterrent is not truly a deterrent when they leave prison earlier than sentenced to start their criminal cycle all over again. Hawaii bad for business, good for criminals. How come li`dat?
