The first fire...
They de energized the lines, so the second, deadly fire was not caused by the power lines...

Most of the so called “MISSING” are not missing in sense of dead Many do not know they are :Missing” - they were reported by family/friends They are probably staying on other parts of islands - tourists left the island for home, some locals probably went to stay on other islands with family/friends

“Police did not block passable roads. “

You’re so full of crap. People who went around those road blocks lived. Those that didn’t, died.

Great question.
As evil as that agency has become, I can’t assume there’s a righteous reason.

They will weaponize bureaucracy and make them too weary to wait around for all the regulatory matters governing cleanup as a prelude to any rebuilding.

They will wait out the property owners & take the town through attrition.

I have a nasty feeling this was all on purpose.

You don’t realize that your comment literally agrees with my assertion. So thank you for saying that the passable roads were not blocked.

The ‘Cleanup Crew” has now arrived on the scene so you can be sure to get nothing but the truth.

Oh so we can only comment on events when we were there? Were you at all the events in which you make comments on this site?

I don’t draw conclusions when I’m not privy to all the facts. I’ve seen firsthand accounts that say the cops did indeed block the roads. I’ll take that over your bloviating any day.

Or are you saying all those people who, unlike you, were there are lying?

"I don’t draw conclusions when I’m not privy to all the facts."

You certainly seem to be doing that here.

"I’ve seen firsthand accounts that say the cops did indeed block the roads."

And I've seen the police chief say that his officers were blocking downed power lines and streets that were impassable due to fires.

Oh, but let me guess. You think the chief was in on the whole thing! He was part of the diabolical plot by Bill Gates and Oprah to clear out the land and kill hundreds of people so they could own the island. That's literally the theory you are supporting: there was a plot to murder hundreds of people and the police force was part of it. Am I wrong? Do you think this theory is true?

No. I think he’s another incompetent diversity hire who is too stupid and arrogant to act in a timely manner.

Group tasked to investigate government’s response to deadly Lahaina wildfire

just guessing, but asking people to come forward voluntarily will not answer all questions and will just delay finding out all of the knowable facts (so let the lawsuits begin).

Two things:

1) I am very willing to accept incompetence for mistakes made during the response to the fires. Incompetence is very different from the theory MANY are spouting on this site that Hollywood elites intentionally lit these fires to buy up land and the police acted in concert.

2) The Maui Chief is named John Pelletier. He's as white as they come.

In these types of situations, I always go to the simplest answer. The Maui fires were the prefect blend of wind (80mph at some points), drought-like conditions, and of course human error. In the battle between man and nature, nature always wins. I'm just not sure why people choose to believe very complicated answers when the simplest one is able to answer the question.

That doesn’t make him competent. I know plenty of stupid white folks. And he’s a Dem, so that just nails that door shut.
