Honokaa man found guilty of invading teen’s privacy
A Kona jury on Thursday found 26-year-old Koa Kaakimaka guilty of first-degree violation of privacy.

According to the indictment, the incident took place in North Kohala.
Kaakimaka faces a potential five-year prison term when he’s sentenced on Oct. 17 and will have to register as a sex offender.
