Snipped from the article:
"A July 8 letter by Takata to Kenoi attorney Todd Eddins explained the prosecution’s tampering allegations.
An Oct. 21, 2011, charge for $320 at the Hilo Yacht Club was a going-away luncheon for Kevin Dayton — then a Kenoi executive assistant, now a Honolulu Star-Advertiser reporter — instead of an office strategic planning luncheon as listed, according to the correspondence.
The letter said “beer and whiskey purchased from Longs Drugs was not for ‘Sam Choy’s Poke Contest Volunteer Appreciation Event.’”
The letter didn’t say what the liquor was for, but pCard records show Kenoi spent $125.95 at the Kailua-Kona Longs store on March 17, 2013, St. Patrick’s Day. The celebrity chef’s poke contest was the prior day.
Takata’s letter also said a $200 charge at Volcano House Restaurant on June 30, 2014, was not for a “luncheon with U.S. Conference of Mayors visitors,” but lunch with Alexander Cochran, his wife and children. According to the letter, Cochran told an investigator for the AG he never worked for the U.S. Conference of Mayors and said he never told Kenoi that he did."
