Prosecutors have charged an 18-year-old woman with second-degree attempted murder in connection with Thursday’s stabbing in Kapolei that left a 17-year-old girl in critical condition.

Lakaysha Lupe Faitele sat in a chair inside the courthouse cellblock with her hands clasped together on her lap during her initial appearance via video conference before Judge James Kawashima at Honolulu District Court this morning.

Her bail is set at $500,000.

Court documents revealed that the victim suffered a severed major artery and nerve after receiving a large, deep laceration across her chest and another deep cut on her leg when Faitele allegedly stabbed her multiple times with a bayonet knife.

Honolulu police responded to the stabbing at unit 1222 at the Hale Moena Ohana apartment building, 1055 Alohikea St., shortly before 4 a.m. Thursday.

Police in court documents said Faitele and her friend were having a sleepover when an argument broke out between the two at Faitele’s relatives’ apartment.

Faitele’s aunt and uncle were asleep in their bedroom when they woke up to yelling coming from the living room. Court documents said they went to check what was going on and saw Faitele holding a knife and running toward the front door, police said.

The uncle tackled Faitele while the 18-year-old woman repeatedly said: “I’m sorry. I’m sorry,” according to court documents.

Emergency Medical Services personnel responded and administered life-saving treatment to the victim and took her in “extreme critical condition” to a hospital.

Police arrested Faitele on suspicion of second-degree attempted murder that morning.

Prosecutors charged her over the weekend. She faces a mandatory penalty of life in prison with the possibility of parole if convicted.
