Update on New Lawsuit Filed Against Hawaii Department of Health on Behalf of Virginia Sunahara's Brother, Duncan Sunahara
As reported here brother of Virginia Sunahara, Duncan Sunahara has filed suit against Hawaii to obtain access to Virginia's original long-form birth certificate. Dean Haskins of the Birth Summit lays out the details below. See the complaint here.
Early last year, Duncan had become aware of some possible issues surrounding his late sister Virginia's birth certificate, and had spent quite a bit of time on his own trying to get his questions answered. As he related to us, it seemed he was getting nothing but a "run around" from the Department of Health, and the area hospitals. Oddly, it had been reported in 2010 that DOH Director, Loretta Fuddy, had claimed that no records existed for Virginia Sunahara.
Duncan knew that his sister was born in the same hospital that he had been a few years earlier, and that she was transferred to another hospital, but he didn't know which one (and his elderly mother could not remember). He had visited the birth hospital, Wahiawa General, and both Queen's and Kapi'olani Medical Centers, but was not able to obtain any information from them. We were able to help him procure all of the medical records from the day Virginia spent in Wahiawa General, and found that she was transferred to Kapi'olani, but Kapi'olani insists they have no records on file. It does seem odd that Wahiawa would have the records, but Kapi'olani supposedly does not (how much room could it take to store a roll of microfilm?). This certainly seems "convenient" for them.
When we visited the Department of Health, we weren't quite sure what we would find, since Loretta Fuddy had insisted that Virginia's records didn't exist. However, we were pleasantly surprised that Duncan's application produced several certified copies of Hawaii's new short form birth certificate (which they now absurdly call their "long form"). Upon closer inspection, we learned that the number assigned to Virginia's birth certificate is 151-1961-01180, and realized that, statistically, that number simply cannot be legitimate.
Now, here's what's wrong with that number: we all know that the last group of numbers on the "certificate" Barack Obama claims is his official record is 10641, and his certificate was supposedly processed on August 8, 1961. We also know that the Nordyke twins were assigned the numbers 10637 and 10638, and their certificates were processed on August 11, 1961. Virginia Sunahara's birth certificate states that it was processed on August 10, 1961, but the number it was assigned is 443 higher than the Nordyke twin whose certificate was stamped with the number 10637.
We know that there were 17,616 births in Hawaii in 1961, which shows a statistical average of 48 births per day. To arrive at the number now assigned to Virginia's birth certificate, nine to ten days would have had to have lapsed after the Nordyke twins' certificates were processed, but Virginia's processing date was the day BEFORE the Nordyke's.
To refute the ridiculous argument that birth certificate worksheets were pre-numbered, and clerks kept small stacks of them on their desks for processing, that is not only patently false, but also, by federal law, would be illegal. Birth certificate "worksheets" (what they call blank birth certificate forms) are kept at the hospitals, and it is there where the information is entered onto them. Once all the information has been entered, they are sent to the DOH, where they are processed using a Bates machine, which enters certificate numbers sequentially, and then the date of processing is stamped onto them. Basement bloggers who suggest otherwise simply prove their lack of factual knowledge with that argument (as if any further proof of that were needed).
We went back to the DOH the next day to try to obtain a photocopy of Virginia's original birth certificate, but were told that Duncan was not allowed to receive that (according to DOH rules). When we pointed out to Supervisor Jesse Koike that their "rules" were illegal, according to Hawaiian statutes, he told us that Duncan would have to discuss that with Dr. Alvin Onaka. We spent four hours waiting to speak with Onaka, who eventually instructed the security guard to throw us out of the facility (which seems to be outrageous behavior from someone with nothing to hide). Duncan also made several phone calls trying to make an appointment to see Onaka, but could not get him even to return his calls.
We then sent a certified letter to Onaka requesting the photocopy, and also included the relevant statutory information, and were informed in writing that we would have to take the matter up with Hawaii's Attorney General, which we did. The response we received from the AG contained the same deceptive misinterpretation of the statute, so, as a final step toward filing a complaint with the court, Duncan sent a letter asking for an estimate of how much it would cost for the DOH to perform the necessary research to copy, and send, Virginia's original birth certificate. No response was ever received from the DOH.
Having attempted every administrative procedure to obtain that to which Duncan is statutorily entitled, a lawsuit was filed on Tuesday, January 3, 2012.
Here is a video interview of Duncan Sunahara.
It is still unbelievable that, in 2008, our so-called media dispatched teams to sift through Sarah Palin's trash looking for anything they could find to discredit her, but did nothing of the sort regarding an empty suit Marxist from Chicago who refused to provide any substantive documentation regarding his eligibility. When the media and the politicians refuse to do their jobs, it is up to "We the People" to do it for them—and that is exactly what we are continuing to do. Please stay tuned, as we will keep you up to date on this case.

The attorney does mostly real estate and construction issues. How is he involved in this? Notice office is in bank building.
The attorney understands the law (and, more specifically, Hawaiian law). What does the location of his office have to do with anything?
Dean Haskins
Most attorney’s offices are in bank buildings so that’s irrelavant. I’m in RE and most RE attorneys I know have a ton more sense than the garden variety esquire out there :)
Im more involved in the NBC side...sometimes I’ll catch up on this side of the fence..there’s two groups on FR..the BC and NBC.
I just rediscovered my notes that confirm the timing of the death certificate’s arrival at the HDOH: Tomiyo Sunahara’s death was reported in the Honolulu Advertiser on August 8th. If the death announcements came from the HDOH, the death certificate for Sunahara had to have been in the HDOH office no later than Monday, Aug 7th, so it could be typeset for the Aug 8th newspaper.
So they had the death certificate first and would have been looking for the birth certificate to match with it.
This may already have been explained during the BC investigation but how are these certificates created? Is the certificate typed on security paper or is the page from the book copied onto security paper?
I only ask that because the hatching does not curve toward the binding like the filed lines do.
They are copied onto security paper. The copies made from microfilms (of the Nordyke twins’ BC’s, for instance) don’t have hash lines on them.
Thanx, I don’t know where you live but it is a beautiful day here in Hudson NH and I am going to enjoy it for a change! Give it a rest for a bit N...;>)
Was finally able to read through this thread without interruption. It’s really going to be interesting to see how all this is going to turn out once Duncan gets to court.
I’m no lawyer but it appears he has a strong case against HDOH.
The HDOH has been breaking practically every law in the book.
And if Sheriff Joe’s posse leads to a criminal investigation, the folks at the HDOH and elsewhere had better bail out on Obama and start making plea bargains for telling the truth because there’s gonna be mega dirt - enough to put a lot of people in jail for a very long time.
A criminal investigation would allow the computerized transaction logs to be subpoenaed, as well as every stinkin’ microfilm roll in that office. It would allow phone records of Abercrombie and Mike Evans, for instance, to be subpoenaed. Former HDOH Director Neal Palafox could be deposed, as could former Chief Elections Officer Kevin Cronin, former HDP officials including William Gilardy and Brian Schatz, Okubo herself, and WND’s informant from within the HDOH who reported when Obama’s forgery was placed in their files.
And that’s just a small taste from the Hawaii end of things. There’s also the social security business, the selective service business, the passport office business, the media business, and the business with the eligibility judges.
I used to want this issue decided by judges. I don’t any more. I want this issue decided by multiple juries in criminal trials of multiple people.
Juries of SANE people would be wonderful, but how many of those do we see in a high profile case?
Why would the health dept. be looking for the birth information to match with Virginia’s death certificate?
When they process death certificates, do they always match them up with birth records? If not, then why in Virginia’s case?
I’ve never seen a death certificate before with a birth certificate number on it. Is there something particular to infant deaths in Hawaiian law or health policies that requires them to match death certificates with birth records?
The name amendment is initialed and dated, so why isn’t the addition of the birth certificate number initialed and dated?
Since it is not initialed and dated, wouldn’t that indicate that it was put on the birth certificate along with the rest of the information? If so, then why isn’t it typed, like all the rest of the information on what we can see of the death certificate, including the addition of her correct name?
She wasn’t buried until late Sept., although she was born and died in early August. What’s the story on that?
She was first buried in Punchbowl Cemetery (same as where Stanley Armour Dunham is supposed to be buried, by the way).
Later, she was moved to another cemetery. Where was Virginia until she was buried, if she died on the 5th of August?
The fact that they didn’t announce her birth may be out of consideration for the family. We know that they got the death certificate quickly, because the death was announced in the paper shortly thereafter. Is it correct to assume that the birth record wasn’t made up because her birth wasn’t announced?
Of course, it may be a mistake to rely on those newpaper images. How do we know the microfilm wasn’t tampered with? Has anyone, over the past few years, seen a real page from that newpaper?
