While Hawaiians tend to vote Democratic, I think they still would have enough sense not to run into an inferno but into the ocean.

“People began to evacuate, but an announcement over the intercom said everything was all right, no need to evacuate.’ ‘At 10-story intervals, he had to walk through burning corridors. Bizarrely, no sprinklers or alarms had been activated.”
Defies common sense.
Try them for manslaughter. I think they are lying. The fact that this comes out days later in the face of a tsunami of criticism rather than right after the fire was out tells me that they met and kludged together this lame but plausible excuse after the fact. Even the village idiot could tell you that lausible is not truth.
Despite the claim the warning sirens could have saved hundreds of people who instead burned in the deadly fire, Andaya argued the sirens are generally used for tsunami warnings and Hawaiians are trained to seek higher ground when they go off, which in this case would have led them toward the blazing inferno.

Yeah, Hawaiians are so stupid that they would run into a blazing inferno when they hear a warning siren.
Or, the siren would have alerted people that there was a problem (I don’t keep my phone with me and so an alert to my phone would not do any good, but if I heard a siren I would investigate).
My guess is the manger is a political appointee that was rewarded with high pay low requirement government job.
Maui will become Klaus Schwab and his World Enslavement Forum’s first look at Real Hell
into the fire....they weren’t blind....just looking for a way out....they needed leadership. They should have had trucks with sirens leading the way....just awful...no one should have died,
Yes, of course, they would have run into the fire, instead of checking all the other information sources.
Happens all the time - the great lemming reaction that people have when they see smoke and fire, to run into it.
Sheesh.
Maybe they could train residents to check their phones when emergency alerts are needed.
Moronic excuse. They could probably smell the fire once they were outside.
I hear the sirens. I go outside to go to the mountains. I see the mountains are on fire. I run away from the fire.
Typical idiot Dem blaming others.
The sirens are on the coast, no one “uphill” would have heard them. Those nearer the coast where the sirens would have been heard have been TRAINED for Tsunamis...not wildfires. The sirens for those who could have heard them would have told the people to head for higher ground (into the fire) or up into buildings, where they would have been incinerated. They need warning sirens for the whole area, and a different SOUND for Tsunamis and Wildfires ... (Same Sirens, different sounds). The press needs a scapegoat, and they are focusing on this man. The sirens not going off was NOT the problem, and the man’s decision NOT to sound the sirens probably saved lives. Tough decision, he’s a hero and only someone familiar with the (Faulty!) system would have understood what to do, which he did.
typical goverment employee, now better then the citizens.
you sounds the sirens and people are going to know the fire is close and oyu can smell the smoke..
btt
He choose ‘sacred water’ over people’s lives.
