I called Greggor Ilagan's office that same day and talked to a very sympathetic aide who took down some information about the incident and my contact information, but I never heard anything else back. I guess that doesn't matter so much since I'm not the only one who has seen this behavior.
What's really sad to me is that a few years ago it seemed like Pahoa was on the right track to cleaning things up and improving. It kind of corresponded to the peak of the real estate bubble when there was money and rich folks in town. Now that the economy is struggling we are right back to where things were over 10 years ago. Do you folks remember this incident with an ice deal happening right in front of Mayor Harry Kim, and then the police completely missing it?
