Aloha Mr. Mayor,

Q: I know there are a lot of good police officers on this island who work very hard and are truly dedicated in their service in keeping our community safety. However, I would like to make a police-related complaint. How do I go about filing a complaint?

A: I agree with you. There are many, many good officers serving our community.

The police commission receives and reviews police-related complaints.
