Maui Police Chief John Pelletier has found himself at the center of a troubling incident following a reported car accident outside his Wailuku residence on Sunday. While he claimed he sustained no injuries, independent journalist Jeni reported disturbing allegations suggesting a DUI cover-up linked to the chief, who is already embroiled in a lawsuit connecting him to Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, now facing federal charges in New York.

Controversy surrounds Maui Police Chief John Pelletier as he reportedly crashes his vehicle while allegedly intoxicated, raising questions about police conduct.
Pelletier, accused of misconduct in the past, allegedly drove into a ditch after consuming alcohol with colleagues. Eyewitness accounts depicted a chaotic scene, indicating that officers at the scene discouraged the administration of a breathalyzer test. Sources claim Pelletier attempted to shift blame for the incident onto mechanical faults, despite evidence pointing to his intoxication.
Mayor Richard Bissen has previously called for Pelletier’s suspension, but the chief has resisted this move, raising concerns about corruption within the Maui Police Commission, which critics argue has shielded him despite a string of complaints and lawsuits.
