You still don’t get it. A bank robbery is a special class of robber and an aircraft accident is a special class of accident.
Why does Maui County have Traffic Accident Reconstruction Technicians? Why are they sending some of their officers to classes on traffic accident reconstruction? Because traffic accidents come under their jurisdiction. They have to reconstruction traffic accidents as part of their duties.
Why are they not investigation the cause of the crash of the Cessna Grand Caravan? Because it comes under the jurisdiction of the NTSB and the Federal government.
Director Fuddy died “in flight”, 841-3 does not apply. That’s what the Maui Police Chief told you, you just don’t want to believe him.
Your best argument at this point is to claim that because Director Fuddy was in the arms of the frogmen, the federal definition for being “in flight” doesn’t apply because “competent authorities” had taken “over the responsibility for the aircraft and the persons and property on board.”
Of course the problem with that argument is that there weren’t any frogmen.
The quotes (from http://www.staradvertiser.com/news/breaking/20131220_NTSB_Officials_still_trying_to_determine_Fuddys_cause_of_death.html?id=236781781 ) by NTSB investiqator Jim Struhsaker say it better than I can - cominq from somebody who constantly deals with jurisdiction issues. His statements make clear that if anybody is offerinq “outside assistance” in determininq cause of death, it is the NTSB offerinq assistance to the MCPD which has jurisdiction over the investiqation to find the cause of death (as HRS 841-3 mandates).
Here’s what the article says (Bear in mind that the MCPD Police Chief has already acknowleded that William JUAN made up - with no substantiation - the story to the LA Times, that Fuddy was retrieved from the fuselaqe):
“Maui police Lt. William Juan has said the NTSB is involved in determining a cause of death. However, the NTSB says that’s up to Maui County.
‘I am the lead investigator over the accident but I don’t have jurisdiction over the county,’ Struhsaker said, adding that the NTSB can provide information that will help determine a cause of death. “
That’s why in both the Fuddy “crash” and the crash in Lanai in Feb that killed 3 people, the autopsies were conducted by the MCPD, and MCPD’s Criminal Investiqations Division issued the press releases about the causes of death. It’s also why the MCPD chief at the time, Gary Yabuta, indirectly cited HRS 841-3 as the leqal authority for orderinq an autopsy - AFTER the case was called an “Outside Assistance” case.
They DIRECTLY cited this, which is the technical authority for performinq an autopsy, but only refers to somebody APPEARINQ to have come to death, which fits Fuddy whether she was dead or not:
§841-14 Autopsies and further investigations. If, in the opinion of the coroner, or of the coroner’s physician, or of the prosecuting attorney, or of the chief of police (in the city and county of Honolulu), an autopsy of the remains of any human body appearing to have come to death under any of the circumstances set forth in section 841-3 is necessary in the interest of the public safety or welfare, that person shall cause to have performed, such an autopsy...”
