Timeline of Material Actions

DateAction / InstrumentKey Points
October 25, 2025 OHS formal advisory & directive request to HKC (re: Release & Jurisdictional Transfer of D.C.K. Damasco) Petition cites Geneva IV Art. 147 (unlawful transfer/confinement) and Protected Person status; seeks HKC directive.
October 27, 2025 HKC Executive Order of Release (OHS–HKC–EXO–2025‑DAMASCO) Orders immediate release; sets release date/time: Nov 1, 2025 @ 09:00; witnessed by OHS Director & Deputy.
October 29, 2025 OHS Release Packet & Formal Notification to Governor Josh Green Directs written acknowledgment of receipt and execution of the release order; outlines IHL obligations and protected status.

1) Registry & Verification Division

  • Subject Case Registry confirms HILO-25-1025-03 (Geneva IV Art. 147) for David C. K. Damasco; Verified Hawaiian Subject; Protected Person.
  • OHS Certificates of Protected Person Status issued per OHS protocols; IHL protections summarized (humane treatment, religious accommodation, non‑transfer outside occupied territory, due process).
  • All notices and instruments filed with OHS Central Registry and distributed to ICC/OHCHR per policy.

2) Protection & Rescuer Operations Division

  • Operational focus on securing humane treatment and Kosher dietary accommodation pending release, and on repatriation logistics to OHS custody (Hilo) upon execution of HKC order.
  • OHS Liaison contact designated for coordinated transfer; family communication and safety planning in place.

3) Legal & Advocacy Division

Legal position anchored in Hague (1907) Art. 43 (respect for existing laws under occupation) and Geneva IV (1949) Arts. 4, 26, 64–66, 147. The Royal Commission of Inquiry’s legal analysis identifies usurpation of sovereignty during occupation as a continuous offense under customary international law, with elements concerning the imposition of occupying power measures beyond military necessity and awareness of the occupied status.

  • OHS communications to State/Hawaiʻi officials issued as lawful notices/directives under OHS Tactical Doctrine; evidence logged for potential transmission to international authorities.
  • HKC Notice of Warning provides seven‑day cure period; non‑execution triggers preparation of war‑crime citation and referral to ICC/OHCHR and Council of Regency for record.

4) Education & Outreach Division

  • Public‑facing education continues regarding Protected Person rights under IHL and the OHS/HKC humanitarian process.
  • Briefings prepared for family, community advocates, and facility officials on compliance standards and documentation duties.

Requests for Action (Council of Regency)

  1. Endorse Immediate Oversight: Authorize continued OHS/HKC monitoring of the Governor’s compliance with the HKC Executive Order of Release and seven‑day directive window.
  2. Conditional Escalation: If execution of release order is not performed within the HKC timeline, approve issuance of an OHS War‑Crime Citation (GC IV, Art. 147 – unlawful confinement/transfer) and transmit the record to ICC/OHCHR in accordance with Ministry protocol.
  3. Inter‑Ministerial Coordination: Direct the Ministry of Hawaiian Subjects & Humanitarian Affairs to prepare diplomatic notes under Hague (1907) and Geneva IV referencing this case file and the continuing obligations of an occupying administration.
  4. Puʻuhonua Reception: Confirm Puʻuhonua reception and reintegration plan for D.C.K. Damasco upon release, including cultural protocol and educational measures in Kingdom law and humanitarian standards.
  5. Record Preservation: Mandate preservation and secure transfer of all State communications, custody records, and acknowledgments into the OHS International Record.
