Public Exposure Notice


OHS Government Agency Citations & Documented Violations (Record Summary)
Issued by: Office of Hawaiian Security (OHS)
Purpose: Public notice and record preservation

This post summarizes two formal OHS violation citations issued to State of Hawaiʻi agents. These are not opinions and not advocacy statements. They are administrative records that document conduct after notice, which is a legally significant threshold in humanitarian, administrative, and Indigenous rights review.

 
What These Citations Are


OHS violation citations are record-making instruments. They document:

Who was cited (by role and name),
What conduct occurred,
Which duties were breached,
What corrective actions were required, and
What deadlines applied.
When conduct continues after notice, the record classifies that continuation as knowing rather than inadvertent.

 
Citation 1: Corey J. Reincke (HPA)
Citation Type: Unlawful transfer / detention; failure to acknowledge notice
Status: Entered and preserved

This citation documents:

Unlawful transfer and confinement activity without documented necessity or lawful authority;


Failure to acknowledge receipt of a lawful OHS notice;
Obstruction or refusal to respond after notice was served.
The citation records that the conduct occurred after notice, fixing knowledge and escalating exposure. It also lists required corrective actions and preserves the absence of timely response as part of the record.


Why it matters:
Once notice is acknowledged or properly served, continued action or silence is no longer neutral. It becomes recordable disregard, which compounds exposure across time and roles.

 
Citation 2: Shannon Cluney (HCCC)
Citation Type: Unlawful confinement; transfer without authority; non-response
Status: Entered, dated, and preserved

This citation documents:

Transfer and detention activity involving a Hawaiian Subject under asserted State authority;
Failure to inform OHS of custody-related movement;
Failure to acknowledge receipt and failure to respond to a lawful notice;
Continuation after notice, with deadlines stated.
The record includes attestation and filing details, fixing chronology and authenticity.


Why it matters:
In custody contexts, time and notice are critical. Non-response following notice is preserved as willful non-engagement, not misunderstanding.

 
Pattern Indicators (Why These Are Not Isolated)
Taken together, these citations show recurring indicators:

Action after notice (knowledge fixed);
Non-response or refusal to acknowledge (silence preserved);
Role continuity (duties attach to roles, not just individuals);
Escalating exposure (each day of silence compounds the record).
Patterns matter because systems are assessed cumulatively, not incident-by-incident.

 
What Happens When There Is No Response
When a cited party does not respond by the stated deadline:

The absence of response becomes part of the evidentiary record;
The matter moves from engagement to documentation;
The record is routed for annexing (facility, department, role);
Preservation demands are reiterated.
This process is non-violent and non-coercive, but it is consequence-aware: records travel, persist, and outlast personnel changes.

 
What This Public Notice Is (and Is Not)
This is:

A factual summary of entered citations;
A public preservation of chronology;
An accountability record.
This is not:

A claim about intent;
A personal attack;
A request for permission.


 
Closing


These citations demonstrate a simple truth of governance and accountability:

After notice, silence is not absence—it is evidence.
OHS will continue to publish record summaries so the public can see what was noticed, what was required, and what followed. Records are preserved to ensure future review cannot claim ignorance.
