Kealoha Trial: Defense rests its case, Prosecutors present rebuttal Thursday
Day 15, 6/19/2019
1:59 p.m. Lars Isaacson, only brought in one witness, Gordon Gomes, who was with the Criminal Intelligence Unit in 2010-2012. He testified that those who are ranked captain and above do not have to sign in for attendance. Not sure what his point was.
Also, Isaacson made the point that Shiraishi was not on the witness list for Gerard Puana's criminal trial for mailbox theft. So Isaacson was trying to tell the jury that Shiraishi was hardly involved in the case and was not part of the conspiracy.
The defense rests. Trial resumes tomorrow for prosecutors' rebuttal case.
1:12 p.m. Lars Isaacson, attorney for Gordon Shiraishi, is up next. When he's done the defense will rest, which should be by the end of the day.
Prosecutors plan to bring two to three more witnesses tomorrow for rebuttal. Then the trial will take a break as attorneys and the judge finalize jury instructions.
