Kapolei HPD District 8 Coverage

The Honolulu Police Department is the main law enforcement office for Kapolei. District 8 covers the full leeward side of Oahu. The hub for Kapolei arrest records is the Kapolei Police Station at 1100 Kamokila Boulevard, Kapolei, HI 96707. The phone is (808) 723-8400 and the fax is (808) 723-8416. The district also runs the Waianae Substation at 85-939 Farrington Highway, phone (808) 723-8600.

District 8 serves Kapolei, Ewa Beach, Ewa Gentry, Makakilo, Ocean Pointe, Waianae, and Nanakuli. Patrol officers book most adults at the station on Kamokila Boulevard. The booking desk takes fingerprints and a mug shot. From there the file moves to HPD Records on Beretania Street for long-term storage. That flow shapes how Kapolei arrest records end up online.

Walk-in help is local. For a copy of a police report, though, most requests route back to the main HPD Records and Identification Division at 801 South Beretania Street, (808) 723-3258. The phone line is open Monday through Friday from 7:45 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Call ahead if you plan to visit. Kapolei residents can often mail requests in to save a trip.

HPD also publishes core contact info on the department information page, which links out to arrest logs, report forms, and more Kapolei arrest records resources.

The main HPD website is the starting point for any Kapolei arrest records question.

Kapolei Arrest Logs and Booking

HPD puts up adult arrest logs each day. These county-wide logs include Kapolei bookings from District 8. Each entry lists the date and time of arrest, the name, age, sex, race, the arresting officer, the offense, and the report number. Juvenile arrests never show up.

Logs drop off after 14 days. For anything older, mail a written request to the HPD Records and Identification Division at 801 South Beretania Street. Walk-in requests for old logs are not taken. The arrest log portal is updated in the morning. HPD follows UIPA rules when it processes those requests.

The HPD arrest log page is the fastest free source for fresh Kapolei arrest records.

For a full copy of an incident file, use the police reports page. HPD charges $0.50 for the first page of a report. Each extra page is $0.25. Verification letters run $1.00 for the first page. Pay before HPD hands the paperwork over. Bring a photo ID and a signed, notarized request letter. Kapolei residents who want faster service can drop off the request at the Kapolei Police Station front counter.

Kapolei UIPA Requests

The Uniform Information Practices Act (HRS Chapter 92F) is Hawaii's open records law. It is how most non-routine Kapolei arrest records get released. The Office of Information Practices has model forms you can use. Mail UIPA requests to the agency that holds the record. For HPD items, send the request to the Records Division at 801 South Beretania Street. For state sheriff files, contact the Department of Law Enforcement at 715 South King Street, Room 505, or email law.uiparequest@hawaii.gov.

Agencies answer within 10 working days. A 20-working-day extension is allowed when a file is complex. Section 92F-22 lets an agency hold back some parts of an open investigation. Basic booking facts, though, must come out under HRS 92F-12. That rule is why daily Kapolei arrest logs stay public in the first place.

OCCC Holding for Kapolei

The Oahu Community Correctional Center (OCCC) holds Kapolei pre-trial arrestees. OCCC is at 2199 Kamehameha Highway, Honolulu, HI 96819. The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation took over the former Department of Public Safety on January 1, 2024. Sheriff work moved to the new Department of Law Enforcement. Call (808) 587-5002 for the Oahu Section. Female arrestees go to the Women's Community Correctional Center in Kailua.

OCCC runs an online inmate lookup through a partner vendor. The lookup shows booking date, facility, and custody status. If a Kapolei arrestee posts bail fast, they may never show up in the system. Check back the next day in that case. Mail may take longer. Family members with questions can call the DCR main line for current inmate status.

Kapolei arrestees held past arraignment move through OCCC for intake. From there they may go to another facility based on the case. Court dates set in the First Circuit guide the next step. Department of Law Enforcement phone numbers list the sheriff section contacts for warrant, bench, and transport work tied to Kapolei arrest records.

Kapolei Arrest Records Laws

Two state laws shape how Kapolei arrest records get handled. HRS 846-2.7 sets who may run a criminal history check through HCJDC. Only approved groups can pull adult files. A Kapolei resident can always pull their own record. The other key law, HRS 92F, opens up public access and sets the 10-day response rule.
