COMMUNITY PETITION TO DENY DEFENDANT KEENO’S MOTION
COMMUNITY PETITION
To: The Honorable Rebecca A. Copeland
Court: First Circuit Court
Case Number: 1CPC-26-0001264 - State v. Hilinaikailimakualopali Keeno
RE: COMMUNITY REQUEST TO DENY DEFENDANT’S MOTION TO REINSTATE AND REDUCE BAIL AND/OR FOR SUPERVISED RELEASE
Your Honor,
We, the undersigned members of the community, respectfully submit this petition to express our collective concern regarding the Defendant’s Motion to Reinstate and Reduce Bail and/or for Supervised Release.
As members of this community, we believe the safety and well-being of the public must remain a priority when determining whether an individual accused of a serious offense should be released pending trial.
Under H.R.S. § 804-3(b), murder in the second degree is expressly classified as a serious crime. Furthermore, H.R.S. § 804-3(b) authorizes the denial of bail when a person charged with a serious crime presents a serious risk of flight, obstruction of justice, witness intimidation, danger to another person or the community, or further illegal activity.
The potential release of the Defendant raises serious concerns regarding the safety and well-being of our community. Given the nature and severity of the alleged offense, we believe the Court should carefully consider the potential risks associated with the Defendant’s return to the community while awaiting trial. Our concerns extend beyond the immediate parties involved and include the safety of the victim’s family, witnesses, and members of the public. The community should not be placed in a position of fear or uncertainty when there are legitimate concerns that an individual’s release, or supervised release, could present a danger to others.
Based on the charges, the Defendant was allegedly in the possession of a firearm and committed a serious crime in our community at a public family event that resulted in the loss of life. We strongly urge the court to continue to detain Defendant without bail and further ensure the safety of the community.
We respectfully request that the Court uphold the previous decision to revoke the Defendant’s bail and maintain the Defendant in custody pending trial.

BRANDISHING A WEAPON at a community event to commit a SENSELESS ACT OF VIOLENCE! Which in this case is murder. She should be made an example and held with no bail and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Justice for Tom, his children and his entire ohana. LLTM!
I am signing this petition, because the ohana & victim deserves justice, she is a risk and danger to the community and we all should acknowledge how she used force when her life was not in any danger, how do we know she will not do it again, she already claimed one life. My deepest condolences to Thomas & his family. #LLTM.
Right is right, wrong is wrong and she wrong. Tom was a stand up guy. Always protected those he loved. Always did what he felt was right. We going love and miss Tom for everything he was and is. A father, son, brother, friend, protector and hero. Please deny her bail. She took the life of someone we all loved. This wasn’t self defense. She took a gun to a family event and she USED it. Say what you want but in the end she committed the crime and she needs to pay for what she did.
My heart goes out to the family, especially the children who are left behind. No family should ever have to endure this kind of loss. Our community deserves justice, and the victim and their loved ones deserve to have their voices heard. I strongly urge the court to uphold its previous decision, deny bail, and ensure accountability. We cannot allow the seriousness of this loss to be overlooked. We stand together in demanding justice, protecting our communities.
Justice for Tommy
Tommy Boy was murdered, there’s no justification for what happened and justice must be served. What’s right is right and what’s wrong is wrong…the court system needs to do what is right, because what happened to him was wrong. We love you Thomas Malone and we won’t stop fighting for justice or let you die in vain. Rest In Paradise my boy.🙏🏽💯❤️🕊️ #Justice4Tommy
She needs to be accountable of her actions she ruined so many lives!!!
