Former HPD chief Louis Kealoha and wife Katherine exit the Federal Court building after their arrest on corruption charges in October. The couple face new allegations according to an indictment filed today.
A federal grand jury returned a new indictment today against former Honolulu Police Chief Louis Kealoha, his deputy prosecutor wife Katherine Kealoha and four former members of the Honolulu Police Department’s elite Criminal Intelligence Unit.
The Kealohas, Derek Wayne Hahn, Minh-Hung “Bobby” Nguyen, Daniel Sellers and Gordon Shiraishi were already charged in an October 2017 indictment with conspiracy, obstruction and lying charges. The Kealohas were also charged with bank fraud.
The new indictment includes the same charges and adds new conspiracy, obstruction and lying charges against Shiraishi. It also adds new allegations that Katherine Kealoha, Nguyen and Sellers unlawfully entered, searched and seized items from the home of Kealoha’s uncle, Gerard Puana, whom the indictments says was framed by the defendants of stealing the Kealohas’ mailbox.
