Counsel Lincoln S. T. Ashida. He is appointed as Corporation Counsel and has the <br />authority and the responsibility for any legal opinions, whether he can transfer the <br />authority, but he cannot transfer the responsibility of the legal opinions. The fact a legal <br />opinion was requested about his name and appearance and actions in a criminal <br />complaint, and a legal opinion was in fact rendered, makes it a conflict of interest in <br />which Mr. Ashida would profit by not being charged or exposed or prosecuted. The <br />documentation itself clearly speaks for itself, and the supporting documentation speaks <br />for itself, and again, identifies a conflict of interest where apparently Mr. Ashida is <br />profiting by his actions. However, this is not no one unless we could actually draw <br />testimony and subpoena people in order to expose this, basically again, we're getting <br />back to this vehicle of legal fiction here. The corruption of the court is well noted. The <br />racketeering and influence of individuals is well noted and documented. Mr. Ashida <br />obviously feels sorry for me, as he quoted in the paper. I do not feel sorry for Mr. <br />Ashida. I feel sorry for the citizens of the people of the island who have been inflicted <br />and received damage from their corruptions, of his and other peoples. So again, the fact <br />that a legal opinion was rendered to the Police Department to take no action on a matter <br />in which he was personally involved, which could extend into criminal violation <br />CHAIR: Okay. <br />COLE: Thank you very much. <br />CHAIR: Mr. Ashida? <br />ASHIDA: Good morning. <br />CHAIR: Good morning. <br />ASHIDA: I'd be more than happy to answer any questions you have. I submitted a <br />written statement to the Board. I believe under your rules, those communications remain <br />confidential. Personally I have no problem with that document being publicly released, <br />but I think that perhaps you should show it to Mr. Cole, because there are some items in <br />there that perhaps he would not want publicly released. But as far as I'm concerned, I <br />have no problems with it being released. <br />CHAIR: Just to clarify that's the that's the communication dated May S, 2009? <br />ASHIDA: I don't have it in front of me, but I think I only submitted one letter to you. <br />CHAIR: With some exhibits, correct? <br />ASHIDA: Yeah, I think that yes. <br />NICHOLSON: I have a question. <br />CHAIR: Please. <br />24 <br />
