And just what happened to all those children that went missing in Maui following the directed energy weapon assault on the island? Nevertheless, the Maui Fire Department battalion chief has been charged with sexual assault of a minor.
KITV reported:
MAUI COUNTY, Hawaii (Island News) — A grand jury has indicted the Maui Fire Department battalion chief charged with child sex crimes.
Shawn Rogers was arrested and charged on two counts – one for continuous sexual assault of a minor under the age of 14 and one for first-degree sexual assault.
The victim was born in 2007 and Rogers had “recurring access” to her, the indictment states.
According to the indictment, Rogers began sexually assaulting the girl in November 2019 through April 2022. Court documents allege that Rogers groped and raped the victim between those dates. Rogers is also accused of using an inanimate object during at least one of the assaults.
Rogers was released from custody after posting a $150,000 bond, according to a spokesperson with the Maui Police Department.
Maui Fire Chief Brad Ventura issued the following statement on this incident:
“Today, the County of Maui was made aware that Shawn Rogers (52), a 25-year veteran of the Department of Fire and Public Safety, was arrested and charged for Sexual Assault in the First Degree and Continuous Sexual Assault of a Minor under 14 years old. We are deeply concerned about the allegations regarding one of our firefighters.
