TMT protesters seek probe of alleged police misconduct
Pu‘uhonua o Pu‘uhuluhulu Maunakea, leaders of the protests on Mauna Kea, are calling for a federal investigation into the state’s enforcement of Thirty Meter Telescope opponents and asking for the removal of a Hawaii County police officer who they said spread misinformation.
Protesters released a video statement Tuesday alleging that the state is using enforcement tactics that “harass, intimidate and vilify Mauna Kea protectors.” They provided a list of so-called “questionable” law enforcement actions, including the use of sobriety checkpoints, more vehicles parked in and around the blockade, and complaints of high beams and a low-flying helicopter over the kupuna camp.
They also provided the media with video and audio evidence of what they allege is a Hawaii County police officer providing false information to Mauna Kea protester Michael Glendon “in an apparent attempt to provoke him to retaliate against two supposed informants in our puuhonua.”
