East Honolulu Police District 7

HPD District 7 is the police district for East Honolulu. It covers Hawaii Kai, Aina Haina, Niu Valley, Kuliouou, Wailupe, Kahala, and parts of Waialae. The District 7 admin office sits at 801 South Beretania Street, the same Alapai'i Headquarters building as HPD main. The admin line is (808) 723-3369. Patrol officers from District 7 make arrests on the East Honolulu side of the island. Those arrests then go to OCCC for booking.

East Honolulu has a suburban character. Crime patterns run lighter than the urban core. Burglary, theft, DUI, and domestic matters top the District 7 calls. The Hawaii Kai Substation handles local patrol for the Hawaii Kai neighborhood. Residents can walk in for non-urgent matters, accident reports, or to ask about an arrest. For a live emergency, call 911. For non-urgent police calls, use (808) 529-3111. District 7 reports to the HPD Patrol Bureau, which in turn answers to the Chief of Police and the Honolulu Police Commission.

Records from a District 7 arrest are held by the HPD Records and Identification Division. That unit is at the Alapai'i HQ, phone (808) 723-3258. The Records Unit takes requests for arrest reports, case reports, and motor vehicle crash reports. Bring a color copy of your photo ID. Fees are set by HPD rule.

Note: District 7 officers bring arrestees to Alapai'i for processing, but the formal booking always happens at OCCC, not at the district station.

Women may go to the Women's Community Correctional Center in Kailua. Long-term prep for release often runs through Waiawa Correctional Facility, a minimum security prison.

Visitation takes advance scheduling, a valid government photo ID, and the facility dress code. Read more about OCCC at dcr.hawaii.gov. Hawaii Revised Statutes Chapter 353 frames the legal authority for custody. See HRS Chapter 353 for the full corrections code.

For current custody on an East Honolulu released inmate, use the Hawaii SAVIN system. SAVIN rides on the VINELink network. Anyone can sign up for free custody alerts. You get notice when a person is released, moved, or scheduled for a court date. Sign up at vinelink.com or call 1-877-456-8463. SAVIN is tied to the Hawaii Integrated Reentry & Correctional Database and the state DCR facilities.

East Honolulu arrest records come from two main places. The HPD Daily Arrest Log posts new bookings every six hours. Logs stay online for 14 days. After that, older records need a formal written request. The log lists each arrestee by name, age, race, sex, date, time, location, offense, report number, and booking or release code. Go to honolulupd.org/information/arrest-logs for the current log.

The second source is the Hawaii Criminal Justice Data Center. HCJDC runs statewide adult criminal history checks. A name-based eCrim report is $5. Certified copies are $10. Mail-in requests cost $30, or $20 certified. Fingerprint checks are $55 in-person and $35 by mail. Results take 3 to 10 business days. HCJDC does not post juvenile records. It does not include pending cases or sealed files. The HCJDC office sits at 465 South King Street, Room 102, Honolulu. Call (808) 587-3279 for help with forms or case questions.

Use ecrim.ehawaii.gov for online eCrim access. For the full HCJDC info, see ag.hawaii.gov/hcjdc/criminal-history-records-check. The HCJDC also keeps the state sex offender registry. Stick to the official state tools when you need a reliable record. County clerks and the state agency are the best sources for a clean paper trail on a District 7 case.

Access rights flow from the Uniform Information Practices Act, Chapter 92F. See the OIP UIPA page for the full rules. Basic arrest and booking data is public. Some fields are redacted, like social security numbers and home addresses.

Released Inmates Reentry Resources

East Honolulu released inmates have access to a range of reentry supports. The DCR runs the Kapunawai reentry program. That program helps with housing, job prep, and mental health care in the first months after release. East Honolulu residents may use community-based providers in Hawaii Kai, Aina Haina, and Kahala for mental health and addiction services. Most intake lines require a referral from probation or parole, though some clinics take self-referrals.

Probation for East Honolulu released inmates runs through the First Circuit Adult Client Services Branch. Parole runs through the Hawaii Paroling Authority. Both require regular check-ins, drug testing, and program completion. Violations can lead to a return to custody. The Hawaii Integrated Reentry & Correctional Database tracks supervision status. Case managers use that tool to coordinate housing, health, and job services.

For civil legal matters after release, the Legal Aid Society of Hawaii is the main no-cost option. Call (808) 536-4302 for intake. They handle expungement petitions, housing issues, benefit claims, and family court filings. Visit legalaidhawaii.org for the call-back form. The main DCR site at dcr.hawaii.gov lists all state reentry programs.

Note: Hawaii SAVIN alerts cover state DCR custody changes, but federal inmates held at FDC Honolulu need the federal BOP inmate locator for tracking.
