2009-06-10 Board of Ethics Minutes

Home

your violations of civil rights laws, County Ethics Code, and criminal violations of the United States Code. The document and the language contained therein speaks for itself. Emily Naeole, in knowledgeable -- assenting in silence does in fact admit to the statements and accusations within the document. In addition, you'll notice at the end of the document, there's a stamp of the court next to the copy of Ronald Ibarra, chief judge. The chief judge has been aware of this and the fact that I have not been called before the court in contempt or to answer for the statements and accusations against Judge Nakamura using his authority under the law to protect racketeering and unlawful organizations, attests to the truth and veracity of those statements. In addition, insofar as the agenda or the meetings of 8 April indicate that my original petition of 2000, number 2008 -11, could in fact have been heard had it been placed on the agenda. In the interest of the public welfare, I request that this petition be reinstated as a vehicle of legal fiction for the purpose of exacting under rule S testimony and statements that will expose conflicts of interest, violations of fair treatment acts, by County employees and others associated under the jurisdiction of this Board. CHAIR: Okay. COLE: Thank you. CHAIR: Board, do you have any questions for Mr. Cole? LUM: I have a question. Since we are hearing a petition claiming that Ms. Naeole did not treat you in a courteous, fair, impartial manner which is actually 2- 83(a)(3), stating that Mr. Cole was whacky, okay, in her quoted statement to West Hawaii Today. This article that we have been provided says just it really refers it says regarding Naeole 's belief that Cole is, in quotes, whacky, Cole said I am standing up so and so forth for the constitutional rights of the people. But it actually only refers. It doesn't no where have I seen in all of this I admit I could easily have missed something the time, the place, the situation, where this purportedly was said. I mean, Jim Quirk said it in this article COLE: - -Jim Quirk quoted Emily Naeole as a reporter, yes. L UM.• It just says regarding her belief, so and so forth. But never does anything say what happened. When did it happen, what happened, where was it? COLE: It happened. That's all that's required. It's a libelous L UW: - -I require more, excuse me, I require more -- COLE: - -it's a libelous and slanderous statement with malice. It's a L UW: - -I require more than that COLE: - -Well, it's a libelous and slanderous statement with malice. In addition, if you will read the letter to Emily Naeole LUM.• - -That, however, is your letter to Ms. Naeole 12
