A Spellbinding Tale of Corruption in Law Enforcement
When Honolulu police chief Louis Kealoha and his wife, Katherine, the city's deputy prosecutor, reported their mailbox stolen to frame a family member, it was only the beginning of an elaborate conspiracy-and a corruption case that soon became the most notorious in Hawai'i history. Riveting and meticulously told by the federal defender who learned the story from the inside, The Mailbox Conspiracy is a fascinating study in the corruption of power and the abuse of public office.
Infamous for each new stranger-than-fiction revelation, the so-called "Kealoha mailbox trial" unearthed a chain of bumbling coverups, multiple instances of financial fraud stretching back a decade, and an alleged family drug trafficking enterprise-all served up with a generous helping of arrogance on the part of Louis and Katherine Kealoha.
A tenacious defense attorney with decades of experience, author Alexander Silvert led the team of investigators who painstakingly unearthed evidence to prove Gerard Puana's innocence. Their seven-year effort turned the tables on the Kealohas, resulting in the couple's federal prosecution, and the ramifications-and legal wrangling-of the case continue today.
