Chief justice assigns Oahu circuit judge to preside in Kenoi case
Chief Justice Mark Recktenwald this afternoon assigned an Oahu circuit judge to temporarily preside in the Mayor Billy Kenoi felony theft case on Hawaii island.
Oahu Circuit Judge Dexter Del Rosario was temporarily reassigned today to the Circuit Court on Hawaii island specifically for the Kenoi case.
Recktenwald made the order effective as of its signing this afternoon, and it will expire when all matters related to the State of Hawaii vs. Kenoi case is completed. The Supreme Court filed the order at 2:13 p.m. All of the judges on Hawaii island had recused themselves from handling the case.
Kenoi is charged with four counts of theft, two of which are Class C felonies, one count of false swearing and three counts of tampering with a government record.

It looks like the judges are in cahoots with Kenoi. It makes you wonder what else is going on.
YES! I’ve been reviewing some of the actions filed against Oahu Circuit Judge Dexter Del Rosario and it appears that Kenoi and he are matched–bedfellows… AMAZING! WOW–what the Hawaii Bar Association won’t do to protect their own…
They’re all in cahoots together, it’s called the democratic party of Hawaii. This is a Kabuki theater prosecution, they don’t intend to convict him of anything. Just watch, Kenoi will walk away unscathed.
yup, proky will walk then brag about it…………
sorry, that was porky…….
true…it is all part of a public spectacle. Kenoi knows he won’t be held responsible if he keeps his mouth closed and gives the shaka sign. What a farce.
I thought Kona-Kailua family judge Aley K. Auna Jr. would have been a fair judge. Sad.
