   Read First Arrest.  The charges were dismissed September 18, 2006 as there were no witnesses.  Why was I charged with Intimidating a Witness December 14, 2005? Read about that here.
    

10. October 25, 2005, give statements to Officer Drapesa concerning the IMPERSONATING charge I was arrested on the day before, of which I never made a statement.  There is a screen capture of which confirms these sequence of events
    
     

11. November 23, 2005 I file my first complaint against Officer Asuncion and deliver it to the Kauai Police Chief who tells me that he does "not want to get involved."

1. December 13, 2005 Officer Asuncion, while in uniform at a Koloa School function, swears at me, stick his finger in my chest and claims I was terroristic threatening him and intimidating him as a witness. 

1. December 14, 2005 Officer Asuncion, Okamoto and Gabriel come to my house in Koloa at 02:30am without an arrest warrant and arrest me. Okamoto at first asks me to come outside the gate so he can talk to me.  I ask if they have an arrest warrant.  He indicates he does not.   They threaten to shoot my dogs and jump our fence unless I go peacefully.  There is an audio recording of this.  Read second arrest

2. December 23, 2005, I file my second complaint against Kauai Police Officers.
    

3. December 29, I record Officer Asuncion during a mediation.  This audio file discredits his investigation, the first arrest, the second arrest, and the TRO against me.

1. January 10, 2006 Upstairs Courtroom 4 Prosecutorial Misconduct caught on tape.  After the 2 felonies I was falsely arrested on without an arrest warrant or indictment, the charges reduced to a petty misdemeanor to keep the evidence out of the hands of a jury.  Minatoya threatens to reinstate the felonies of which I would then have a jury trial.  The Bail of $10,000.00 was never reduced to match the corresponding charge of harassment.  This arrest was caught on tape with Kauai Police making threats to shoot my dogs and jump the fence to come get me if I don't go peacefully.
    

2. February 7, 2006, Appear w/out Atty. Harrison Continued to March 15, 2006.
    

3. February, 2006, I am told that my photo was being posted on the wall as early as February of '06 in the Kauai Prosecutors office with the following printed on it, " DANGEROUS, DO NOT LET IN"  Incidentally, I am the Computer Technician who installed the Amber Alert inside the Prosecutors office March 4, 2004 and have done some pro bono work for KPD.  See that here.
    

4. March 4, 2006.  Security Guard Gabris, a worker at Pacific Missile Range Facility at the Housing Gate, was a witness to Officer Vinzants wife being upset with me and complained she spoke to Gabris about me.  Almost an hour later I was in my clients office and I apologized if I had offended her by driving closely behind her in a posted speed limit zone of 25 mph as she was traveling only 15 mph.  I had given her a shoulder massage with her two sisters present as one of her sisters is my client.
    

5. March 5, 2006, Without PROBABLE CAUSE I am charged with DUI, open container, resisting arrest, criminal property damage, and two counts of assault in the first degree against two Kauai police officers, Vinzant and Banquel.

I am beaten and choked repeatedly by Officer Vinzant and Officer Banquel,  I lost consciousness. The ambulance was called to the scene two times in a row. There is a witness who is aware of the police filing false statements that night and who was there as Emergency Service Personnel. He is upset that the Sgt has falsified her report.  Officers stole my audio recorder that evening.

3. March 15, 2006 Atty. Harrison did not want to proceed with Walton Hong and made some excuse about researching witnesses in order to get a continuance.  Continued to May 3, 2006.
   
    

4. March 31, 2006 at 9:46 am I was at Kauai Medical Clinic in Koloa.  I had taken my son to the Dr. Office for a problem he had been having with complications of a tooth removal.  I also spoke with Dr. Murray to address the need for anti-depressants to treat my depression and other diagnosed problems. These diagnostics came as a surprise to me when visiting with my Psychologists, Dr. Drown back in March 2006.  Upon leaving the medical clinic I noticed Darrell Kaneshiro, our south shore council member was chatting outside on the wooden lanai.  I asked him if we could talk. He said “uh, I don’t, not right now”  I asked him “you don’t want to talk” then he says, “not with you, I say, “ok”  he replies with , “I had enough with you” then he laughs.  His comment to me only intensifies the distrust of the county officials and gives me the feeling of a railroad verdict.  This is also on tape and can be heard here.
    

5. May 3, 2006 7:45am Call to Atty. Harrison to confirm trial at 9:00am.  Harrison responded that it was rescheduled to a later date.
    

6. May 3, 2006 Appear in Courtroom 2. 10:00 am  Call from Harrison informing me of BENCH WARRANT for missed court date which in our prior conversation earlier that morning told me that it was rescheduled, now said that he "was wrong and that you need to get to the courtroom right away".

9. May 3, 2006 Met with a witness who was at the scene of the March 5, 2006 incident.  This witness was called to the scene twice that night.  His audio statement was obtained which does not match with what the Sgt. that night writes in the reports.
    

10. May 23, 2006, Kauai Prosecutors offer an unethical plea offer with 7 conditions to them dropping the charges:

11. May 25, 2006, Mayor Baptiste, James Itamura and myself discuss the problems of police corruption and allow him to review the plea agreement.
    
    The Mayor sidesteps responsibility and does not step up to the plate.
    
    It is not his "kuleana". (RESPONSIBILITY)
    
     
12. May 25, 2006 Prosecutors send two officers to intimidate us that are implicated and posted on my website with evidence posted against them. 
    
    One of the officers, Vinzant,  stomped on my face and fractured my wrist, the other has placed a TRO on me, falsified police reports and has been caught lying and the audio file of his lies are also posted on kpinkerton.com.  This audio file disproves his investigation, first arrest, second arrest and TRO against me.  The two officers Vinzant and Asuncion, comes to my house to serve my companion of 18 years with a subpoena even after Vinzant beats me up and Asuncion files false police reports, has filed a restraining order and is caught on tape lying about the whole story.
