Timothy seemed a bit off to me. I saw him at a lecture at San Diego State University around 1977-78 and I believe he was into colonizing space at that time. The L5 Society? Now that’s a memory stretch!

to 1972, when DEA Special Agents Don Strange and Howard Safir brought Timothy Leary to justice.👏
Leary founded a drug trafficking ring known as the Brotherhood of Eternal Love that became the largest supplier of hashish and L*D in the United States.

ANYONE LOST A CATALYTIC CONVERTER? There’s an active investigation taking place at the Maui Police Department as the police are on the prowl after hearing word about close to 200 converters stolen by a particular crime syndicate. Let’s all pray that whoever lost a converter to thieves over the past 18 months sees the justice system come into play in an honest and open way. Word has it that the FBI – Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Drug Enforcement Administration - DEA are also working on the case. Stay tuned!

I can't comment too much about it, but if you read between the lines, you might see how one of the retirements might be related to MPD corruption and efforts to clean it up. https://www.hawaiinewsnow.com/2022/03/03/despite-criticism-former-commanders-mpd-chief-stands-by-changes-training-staffing/

I am wondering why there is a complaint about low pay when they knew what it was when hired? Or is the unhappiness due to being told to behave like law enforcement officers instead of members of a criminal organization? Hopefully the corrupt mess which was MPD is getting cleaned up by Chief Pelletier. Click link below:
