Prosecutors are seeking to revoke bail for a 20-year-old Kailua-Kona man who faces a manslaughter charge for a fatal traffic collision in 2022. According to the motion filed Sept. 18 by Deputy Prosecutor Charles Murray III, Trevor Shoemaker-Hassey was arrested Sept. 17 on suspicion of driving after his license was suspended for DUI and third-degree promotion of a dangerous drug. Shoemaker-Hassey, who was free on $75,000 bail, was pulled over by police near the Triangle Park parking lot on Kuakini Highway in Kailua-Kona after officers spotted him driving with 'an unconscious female passenger in his vehicle, who was later determined to be suffering from an overdose related to opiate use,' the motion states.
