Request for Criminal Investigation of Corporation Counsel Moana Lutey…
The self-described “Dinosaurs” of Maui’s Corporation Counsel are a team of litigators led by Moana Lutey who have been around long enough to be professionally compromised while serving past Mayors Alan Arakawa and James Apana.
By their dirty acts over the years, these lawyers are now so personally and professionally conflicted that they can no longer possibly serve the public’s best interest.
We citizens call for an investigation into Racketeering by these “Dinosaurs” and, at the very least, demand their removal from Maui’s Office of Corporation Counsel.
Why is this important?
Maui County is a billion-dollar pawn being played by companies who profit by polluting, AKA “The Pollution Industry.”
The world will never forgive or forget that Maui’s Sewage, partially treated and injected into underground wells, is what gave Trump’s deregulation-frenzied Supreme Court the opportunity to rule against EPA permits for all Injection Wells and cripple the Clean Water Act.
We can stop this by ridding Maui’s Corporation Counsel of the “Dinosaurs”. That’s the self-chosen name of the team of litigators led by Moana Lutey who have been around long enough to be professionally compromised while serving past Mayors Alan Arakawa and James Apana.
By their dirty acts over the years, these lawyers are now so personally conflicted that they can no longer possibly serve the public’s best interest.
Moana Lutey and Maui’s “Dinosaur Lawyers”:
* Inserted language into the Injection Well resolution that would give the Lawyers final say over county policy, robbing authority from both the Mayor and the County Council, in violation of legal norms, the County Charter and Rules for lawyers in Hawaii.
* Are actively blocking enforcement of SMA Permits that protect our shoreline, in violation of the U.S. Coastal Zone Management Act.
* Wrote secret developer agreements from 1974 to 2007 in order to shift financial burdens onto residents and is still blocking collection of over $100 million from developers by withholding and falsifying public records.
* Secretly violated the intent of the Council in 2015 in order to create a new way to shift financial burdens from developers to residents.
* Are actively concealing government liens which have been unlawfully placed on private properties in the County of Maui.
* Manufactured a fake RE tax to use as a weapon against a timeshare group.
* Are obstructing investigations into several instances of County fraud by lying to both the County Council and Mayor Victorino and have harmed and defamed private resident citizens who have exposed the County corruption.
* Are wasting millions for our tax dollars to take the Lahaina Injection Well case to the Supreme Court regardless that such regulatory changes belong in the legislature, not the courts, and many millions more in a series of frivolous litigations.
As citizens, our voices were significant contributing factors to the recent removal of bad actors such as David Goode, William Spence, J.D. Kim and especially Patrick Wong, who as Director of Corporation Counsel was overseeing the ongoing coverup of illegal acts by others in the County.
The “Dinosaurs” were all trained and compromised by Mr.Wong and are today actively continuing on with his legacy. If we continue to allow Maui’s Corporation Counsel to be run by these Litigating Bullies tied to long-standing big money interests, the Maui we are so fortunate to know and love will never survive.
What a foul legacy the corrupt “Dinosaurs” of Maui’s Corporation Counsel are dumping on us.
We need to flush them out.
Maui’s Director of Corporation Counsel must not be yet another Local Litigator with strong ties to local special interests.
Maui needs the breath of fresh air that can only come from a Director of Corporation Counsel who is a Skilled Negotiator with Mainland Experience.
