Well.... I have yet to read any comment, twenty as of this writing, in support of the DOE, Bayada, or the manner in which this case is being handled.  Before anything goes forward.... DOE or otherwise an assault and battery case should be initiated with the Honolulu Police Department.  They have primary jurisdiction. Similar situations with the Catholic Church and Jehovah's Witnesses as they attempted to prevented pedophile investigations from going forward.  A board of inquiry in Australia finally got the Jehovah's Witnesses and we all know what has happened to clergy that protected pedophile priests.  Certainly, this matter does not rise to the level of pedophilia but it still appears to be a criminal violation against a defenseless child. Witness Arron Hess seems credible and the State of Hawaii seems incredible.  Four or five years ago, at Kahala Mall, I saw a wheelchair ridden child being physically poked and hit.  That ended quickly then I called the police.
