funds should be used for actions of the police, that they have performed in this <br /> particular matter. - I filed a swom declaration in Circuit Court today, and I will <br /> quote some sections of that. I was brutalized by the Hawaii county police on <br /> 14 September 1995 and arrested without probable cause. -Reference is made <br /> to my swom complaint to the Police Commission of November 1995, exactly 2 <br /> years ago, of which copies were distributed to all County Council members at <br /> the time. A copy of my amended civil complaint that we are talking about here is <br /> presently in the possession of the Commission. Another copy will be deposited <br /> with the County Council shortly. - With the exception of the Defendant Hickman <br /> all police at the time were in uniform and Plaintiff assumes in his action in court, <br /> the Plaintiff is me, that all the averred actions by police took place in the perfor- <br /> mance of their duty as is clearly expressed in paragraph 10 of the amended <br /> complaint. -Admittedly all the Defendants are mentioned in their official and <br /> private capacities but it's merely because of a recent case in Honolulu where a <br /> policeman Rogelio Mata stole from and helped burglarize George and Mae Wil- <br /> liams while on duty, under the color of authority, which our corporation counsel <br /> took to pointing out possible conflicts of interest in the defense of this case be- <br /> tween the County and/or other defendants. Therefore corporation counsel insis- <br /> ted that I make personal service on everybody individually instead of on Corpo- <br /> ration Counsel who 1 thought would represent all defendants, as is stipulated, by <br /> the way, and is mandated in the County Charter. -Requests for individual repre- <br /> sentation are now coming to the Police Commission, because corporation coun- <br /> sel has obviously been in contact with them and some of these are on today's <br /> agenda, with more on the way. Concurrently corporation counsel had a request <br /> pending on yesterday's council agenda under Communication No.564 to discuss <br /> funds necessary from the county for this law suit. That is public money from <br /> county residents, including myself, to defend and pay for police brutality, etc. <br /> perpetrated on myself. - I was maliciously accused, tried and convicted for <br /> hitting a female cashier bigger than me and 50 years younger, in a supermarket. <br /> - Half the island population knows me and no one believes a thing like that. <br /> Chair: Henry, excuse me, but we got all of this in the report that you submitted before. <br /> [NOTE from Ross: the "report" was given, shortly before the meeting, to the <br /> secretary and there were many items in my presentation that are not in the <br /> report; it is my contention that the commission simply did not want to listen] <br /> Ross: You don't <br /> Chair. 1 haven't heard anything different in what I heard, that I haven't been able to <br /> read in the report that you have submitted or law suit that you filed. What we're <br /> here for is <br /> Ross: What report are you talking about, Madam Chair? <br /> <br /> Chair. Well, you submitted a letter before, we've seen that, There is not any new infor- <br /> mation sofar <br /> z <br /> <br />
