Wailuku as County Seat

As the seat of Maui County, Wailuku is home to the main offices that handle local criminal work. The Maui Police Department main building, the Second Circuit Court, and the Maui County Prosecuting Attorney's Office all sit within town. The Maui Community Correctional Center is a short drive away on Waiale Drive. Most Maui County arrest records, not only Wailuku's, flow through these same offices.

Wailuku residents can walk from one office to another for most requests. The Maui Police Department is at 55 Mahalani Street. The Second Circuit Court is at 2145 Main Street. The Prosecuting Attorney is at 150 South High Street. Each building keeps its own records, so you may need more than one stop for a full case file.

Maui PD Headquarters and Wailuku Arrest Records

The Maui Police Department headquarters at 55 Mahalani Street is the central hub for all MPD work, Wailuku included. The main phone line is (808) 244-6400. The Records Section here keeps arrest reports, booking info, and investigative files for Wailuku and the rest of Maui County.

A small fee applies for each page. Some records may be redacted to protect juveniles or ongoing investigations. Final case outcomes may need a separate request to the Second Circuit Court.

The MPD charging-to-court process for a Wailuku arrest is simple. A patrol officer makes the arrest, brings the person to MPD headquarters for booking, and files the paperwork. If a judge sets bail above a posting amount, the person goes to MCCC. The Prosecuting Attorney reviews the file and files charges in court.
