Where does the Police Commission get its authority to give Kealoha anything other than his retirement. The Commissions job is to hire grade and fire the Chief, nothing more.  The citizens of Honolulu should demand the Chief be fired, not bought off.  It seems the Commission is going to pay extra money to Kealoha to keep him from suing them. Or we can wait until he is in  prison and then fire him. I think the Commission should just keep him on leave until the Fed acts.  When the Feds finally act they will give Kealoha a choice.  To either resign or be charged.  Either way he is gone without additional money pad to him. Does the Commission also have indemnification in their contracts? 

 If the Commission and the City give Kealoha money to leave then there should be a recall of Mayor Caldwell and a call to the Feds to investigate this whole matter.  Something doesn't smell right. One gets extra money from the city for being a felon?
