Heading: CW # 2's Testimony

Text: CW # 2 testified that in the early morning hours of February 7, 2009, she was down at Nuuanu [Avenue], behind [the stores] Pali Longs [and] Safeway, when Respondent drove up in a Ford Mustang and asked her if she wanted to cruise with him. CW # 2 agreed and voluntarily entered the vehicle. As Respondent drove over the Pali Highway, Respondent kept saying, Oh I can take you back if you're scared.... I can go get somebody else. If you want to go back, just tell me. But CW # 2 said, I don't mind. We can go hang out. As Respondent turned into a dark neighborhood on Old Pali Road, he reiterated that he could take her back if she was scared. She finally said, Okay, already.... Just take me back[.] Then, Respondent responded, Oh, why? Are you scared of me now? CW # 2 reached for the phone because [she] was scared; Respondent grabbed it from her, struck her face and the back of her head several times, grabbed her hair, and pulled her down to the center console. CW #2 saw blood dripping from her face onto the console. She also indicated that when hit on the back of the head, she blacked out[,] but eventually regained consciousness. Respondent repeatedly told CW # 2, Shut the fuck up[,] ... you're going to do what I tell you to do[,] while grabbing her by the hair and pulling her down. CW #2 thought she was going to die. When CW # 2 attempted to escape, Respondent told her, Oh, try and get out[,] but when CW # 2 grabbed the door handle, he grabbed [her] hair again and said, What the fuck are you doing? When she tried to pull away from Respondent, he began to hit her on the back of the head with his fist or elbow. When she began screaming and pleading for Respondent to let her go, Respondent threatened, Shut the fuck up or I'm going to shoot you.  (Emphasis added.) CW # 2 finally yanked her hair free from Respondent's hand and he said, Oh, what the fuck are you doing? I'm going to crack you again. After that, CW #2 remained quiet so that Respondent would not hurt her anymore. As they headed down the windward side of the Pali Highway, Respondent told CW # 2 that he would let her go at a nearby bus stop and give her money to catch the bus home. But as they passed the bus stop, Respondent continued to drive and eventually turned into the Maunawili area. At some point, CW # 2 attempted to turn off Respondent's ignition and Respondent said, Look at what the fuck you did, bitch.... Oh, you want me to crack you again? Respondent remarked, The last girl that was with me got out, but she broke her collarbone. [7] Respondent continued to drive through the dark stretch of Maunawili and eventually turned into Maunawili Elementary School. As he pulled in, he said, [Y]ou can tell your friends this is where you got fucked. He pulled into a dark area near a dumpster and said, [Y]ou're going to do whatever I want you to do and then you can go; You'll be fine if you do it. Respondent then pulled CW #2 out of the vehicle by her hair and dragged her to a bench. At the bench, Respondent undressed, undressed CW #2, put his penis [i]nto her mouth and forced CW # 2 to perform oral sex on him. She did not scream because she was scared [Respondent] was either going to hurt [her] or kill [her]. Thereafter, Respondent laid down and instructed CW #2 to get on top of him. She again complied, believing that he was going to hit [her] again or kill [her]. Respondent put his penis into [CW # 2's] vagina and made [her] suck his penis one more time. Then, he made CW # 2 lay down on the bench, kissed her, bit her lip, and spat inside her mouth as he placed his hand ... on [her] neck area and press[ed] down on ... [her] throat making it hard to breathe. Respondent also touched [CW # 2's] breast, and then [] put his mouth on her breast. He told CW # 2 that he was going to ejaculate in [her] mouth and she was going to swallow it. CW # 2 got on top of him one more time; Respondent said, Oh, get ready. CW #2 got off of Respondent and Respondent grabbed her neck[,] stuck his penis into her mouth and ejaculated; he said, Oh, you better swallow it. After the incident, Respondent said, I'll give you your cell phone back if you just come with me back to my car. CW # 2 told Respondent that she would meet him at the side of his car so he could give it to her. She started walking quickly toward the parking lot, but removed her shoes, and began running toward the highway. She attempted to flag down several cars until finally, Chad Ogawa (Ogawa) stopped. She ran up to his car and said, Sir, Sir, please help me, please help me[.] As they were driving, CW # 2 saw that the Ford Mustang was still parked by the dumpster. Ogawa could not see the license plate number so he got out of the vehicle and walked towards the Ford Mustang. Ogawa returned to the vehicle with the license plate number and told CW # 2 to save it in his cell phone. Ogawa then drove CW # 2 to a 7-Eleven store to leave her with one of his classmates, who was going to call the cops. After the police arrived, they took CW # 2 to a residence where she identified Respondent as her assailant and recognized the Ford Mustang by a sticker that was on the windshield.
