A judge allowed the former police chief to visit family and friends in Washington state in May before starting his prison sentence. He was also granted a delayed surrender date in March to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

His wife, Katherine Kealoha, also took part in the crime. She is currently serving her 13-year sentence at a federal prison in Honolulu.
