Someone investigate the state prosecutors office

What is going on with the state prosecutors office?

First we read they refuse to prosecute former Maui Corporation Counsel Patrick Wong for abusing his girlfriend. Now we see a tiny article in the May 30 paper that the same office reaches a plea deal with an ex-Honolulu cop to just serve probation for sexually abusing a 5-year-old girl for four years! And this is after a grand jury indicted Teddy O. Van Lerberghe on seven counts of sexual assault of a minor!

Please, someone investigate the state prosecutors office! If people are not incensed and sickened by this, what’s next?
