december we look to feel free to look at his positions but prior to that we're going to be looking for one captain they suck up in the least and we're going to be doing interviews for that one great job they do all the the the c kind of work at the park late at night some of the smaller jobs advice really doesn't have time to do it and a lot of times those cases develop into larger cases that we get hostile acts so they've been doing a great job of regulation did you know they were getting on because people speed through they don't realize it's a twenty mile an hour speed limit and anybody that ever said anything oh i get caught by a cop i said are you part of like breaking the law you probably weren't doing what you were supposed to be doing and said just don't pull you over to pull you over they don't have the time questions raised cases that were about to try so you know i thought that was so i thought about it long and hard after that the state of hawaii and throughout the united states and sometimes are differences differences of opinion but i can tell you right now for the past two terms or we're starting on our second term here we have a complete open line of not conduct investigations we need to do some follow up but we do not go out there and interrogate or interview suspects we do not go out there collect evidence and we do not do the actual investigation  i think a lot of members of the public think we do but we don't if anything we might have our investigators to some follow up right now we have thirty two prosecutors that serves mostly county and that's a lot when i first t if you watch law and order that's probably the most accurate acrid real or actual life of a prosecutor and a police officer that's how working together we also need to have the same professionalism in the confidentiality between the departments a lot of the information cannot be that up to the public a lot of information cannot be shared especially when and i issue at the end of the investigation at the end of the trial at the end of the criminal process things can come up and they often do through there's a lot of documentaries the o j simpson is one of them we see later on what the actual evidence was that could be presented and what the police have that they couldn't share earlier what could be presented in court and what the prosecutors did or didn't do we find out after the fact but during an investigation all of that has through mean confidential not only because it's it's the ethical thing to do and it's a professional thing to do but more importantly we do not want to jeopardize prosecution in the criminal investigation and when i say jeopardize a corrupt prosecution leak or we have evidence that is tampered with or missed or or there's any misconduct of any kind my main concern is a prosecutor and my office like to take a victim centered approach is when these things happen when  what we're trying to avoid does happen our victims suffer in the community suffer and oftentimes it's because of innocent questions or curiosities that people have that they just wanted satisfied or the just want to ask questions or they may want to stir things up universities or just with special interest groups if they want to know what the criminal process is in the criminal process unfortunately if you're a victim of a crime you have to show up and testify if you're going to sue somebody else you want to show up you don't have to the law the criminal law requires that child to come to court and testify in an adult city so that means that four or five girls will come to court will sit on adult furniture look at adults closer to each of the perpetrator  here and will have to tell the jury or the grand jury what happened to him or her in their in their little cabin area and into little boys and you can imagine how daunting that is for a child to do with and hold them until a judge will see and discuss whether that person can be released on bail whether if a person can't even post bail that's one way to get the case into court the other way is you go before a judge not over because we're continuing investigation even if a person is formally accused and brought into brought into court and he's yes this turn in this form of charges that doesn't mean the police and army and do their best occasion oftentimes  if there's more to be done is they will do the work with us and will continue the work and i bring this up because at some point at that point when somebody is already accused in the newspapers did at that point people want to start results between one commercial to the next some do some results take a year and have some two years so the trial is drawn along and while the trial this pending and while we're waiting please we still be working on the case with us and we're still workin our case we don't just go to trial and start there's a lot of preparation or there's a lot of purge preparation with witnesses especially if the witnesses are family members who are going through hardship because there's no one has been murdered or victims and their families are going through a lot so they do go through the cruel process with their assigned victim when this calls thirst we try to provide services therapy sessions if they need to sometimes and often times a lot of them have severe subsisting pendants or socialists abuse issues so they need that so there's a lot of things going on with their victims in our families and we say see to that so when the trial finally comes into play  trial will go on some trials will take a while only take me take you anywhere from one month to three months so you have a family waiting for two one two or three months for a verdict or for decision by the jury little time and he would say a plea bargain way to simply bar get come in the process that you just explained to us is i would say that occurs with ellie's eighty to ninety percent of the cases because there's no way a court room can hear that three or four hundred cases in a year i mean that at best maybe maybe the family court will hear the most jury trials to a year and they'll be maybe a dozen universal but yet that that this clear over for your high profile wouldn't touch a high profile cases fourteen mile we don't have a lot of them compared to a population of walk along which has a million we always like to say we're one whopping one tenth of the population one tenth of our police force and when the size of the force and one tenth of the size of our office has pretty much over thirty percent because we have thirty of one hundred  but it does take into play by now for your high profile cases those you go to trial most of the people into custody because i know a lot of if you have a thousand cases i know these officers have seen these people over and over and over again because when it reported that they do have sheets that are you know burglary you know abusive family member all the same people constantly coming between them and you go to an office go we know that family we know those people can it be maintained why it was and are raised the entity you probably want to see is the man we take service center because as far as the police have my office concerned we don't want to see these guys keep coming out like a revolving door but we're not in charge of the joining us today mr reserva i just want to summarize what i think i heard in the especially we as commissioners you know in meeting with the police department every month  that's i think that's basically boy here to make sure and the plea i'm making to you folks because you folks are fathers brothers uncles i mean you have families is if you do that then you are in the end run you're jeopardizing our families and their security and their safety not only their physical security safety but their emotional psychological security and safety  office is not really to act upon that within that forty eight hours they have to be sent person if we were ready to act upon it whether through a grand jury or premier hearing they will keep the person in custody haven't appeared before the grand jury or not the grand jury and the police department really have no say in that neither does the on hold judge who's on duty because each judge the big take turns being on call and they determine the status of people that are arrested over the weekend so the requires their release i don't think i think the community i'm sure they don't understand that the law requires a rhesus nothing the police can do about it it's nothing a judge can do about it that person has to be
