This morning, a homeowner contacted police after encountering the unknown female on her property with indications that unauthorized persons had frequented that location in the past.
Police arrived and located a 36-year-old female, Jami Leonard, (listing no permanent address), within the structure which was located within a county designated zone declared for “residents only.”
Leonard was arrested and charged with one (1) count of criminal trespass 1 and one (1) count of loitering and refusal to evacuate. Total bail was set at $750, and she remains at the detention center in Hilo awaiting her court appearance.
Hawaii Island Police will continue to vigorously enforce lava restrictions in an effort to protect the public.
Police are protecting the public from what? Protecting the right of the people to pay the police overtime to enforce a police state? Enforce existing laws. eg. no looting, no trespassing, we don’t need made up laws. You can’t tell me the state allows people to build houses on a volcano but it is to dangerous to enter the ares.
What time do you expect to be out of your home today?
Just asking “for a friend” so they can just move in and claim your home as theirs!
