{{orphan|date=March 2019}}Katherine Puana Kealoha is a former deputy prosecutor with the City and County of Honolulu. She resigned from the position in September 2017 after she, along with her husband Louis Kealoha, was indicted on eight counts of bank fraud. Her husband is a former Chief of Police.[1] She grew up in Kahalu‘u, on the windward side of Oahu.[2]

Education

Kealoha attended high school at the Mid-Pacific Institute. She obtained a bachelors degree in political science and a Master's degree in Criminal Justice Administration at Chaminade University. Kealoha attended the William S. Richardson School of Law at the University of Hawaii at Manoa and received a Juris Doctorate.[3]

Career

Kealoha worked at the Law Offices of Katherine Kealoha and Associates between 2000 and 2006.[4] Kealoha was appointed as the director of the state Office of Environmental Quality Control in 2009 by then-governor of Hawaii, Linda Lingle.[5]

Legal Issues

Civil Case

In 2011, Kealoha was accused of stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from her grandmother, Florence Puana. Kealoha's grandmother and uncle, Gerard Puana filed a civil suit against Kealoha based on the accusations. Kealoha won the civil suit against her grandmother and uncle.[6]

Mailbox Theft Incident

On June 22, 2013 Kealoha reported to the Honolulu Police that her mailbox was stolen from her home in Kahala. Kealoha alleged that her uncle Gerard could be seen stealing the mailbox on video taken via her home surveillance system. After having the case transferred from Honolulu Police, the U.S. Postal Inspection Service determined that the man in the video was not Gerard Puana. On July 1, 2013, Gerard Puana was charged by federal prosecutors with destroying a mailbox. Puana's trial began on December 4, 2014. While testifying against Puana, Kealoha's husband, Louis Kealoha perpetuated a mistrial by informing the jury about Puana's former criminal conviction. In December 2013, Niall Silva a retired policeman from the Honolulu Police Department, pleaded guilty to conspiring with Katherine Kealoha to frame Gerard Puana.[7]
