The unsealed file is now posted on http://hawaiicorruption.wordpress.com/brittany-bo/ As I stated earlier, the file has very limited information. However, the last 2 pages are the court minutes and they make me wonder what happened on the GJ.
It appears "evidence" was presented on 12/18/13 that Bo "must have had help in getting off Island; suspect's father brought large boat; video indicating that deft able to get thru security at airport;". 3 weeks later Bo is found and the new "evidence" indicates Bo committed suicide within a day or two after the murder. So, right now, the GJ presentation and reality appear to be contradictory.
Whether you believe Bo to be the perpetrator or not, the larger issue is that this case was not “solved” through police work, but rather a chance occurrence by a hiker. If Bo had not been found then eventually the indictment would have been unsealed and presented as the gospel. It is obvious from this forum that the community is divided on the competence or trustworthiness of our local police and prosecutors. It is also obvious that this community questioning is well deserved.
On January 10, Ted Royal astutely posted on here that “Soon the Royal's and Johnson's will go away. You will have to make your region one of cooperation or mistrust.” “I hope you get together and begin to somehow work a way to communicate with the authorities. I know a lot of them. They are good people. But it works both ways. You trashing them wont make your cause any easier to deal with. Reach out. Let the past be the past. Focus on making a better future.”
The cloud that currently hangs over Kalapana will not be lifted without community involvement and local law enforcement has no incentive to change on its own. Are we going to let three more young lives fade into the “Kalapana cloud” until the next event (and there will be a next one) and then add the names of Brittany and Bo to the liturgy list of Dana Ireland, Dawn Gambsky…. When does the list become too long for this collective community to do as Mr. Royal said and create a region of cooperation and, more importantly, accountability?
The exposure created by Tiffany Edwards, this forum, and then national news are largely responsible for the respect the Royal family seems to feel they received from our local authorities. That is not the typical response of local crime victims, some of whom have posted on here. http://punaweb.org/Forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=15483, http://punaweb.org/Forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=16217, http://punaweb.org/Forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=17401, http://punaweb.org/Forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=14921. I’ve stated on here before that no one person can make the needed changes, it will take a group. When do we unite?
