HONOLULU — The state Campaign Spending Commission at its meeting Wednesday dismissed a complaint against the re-election campaign of Kaua‘i County Prosecutor Shaylene Iseri-Carvalho.
The decision was confirmed by a phone call from the commission Thursday. The message said the formal order is pending.
The complaint alleging that Iseri-Carvalho has failed to report in-kind contributions was filed by Diana Gausepohl-White, a victim witness counselor at the Office of the Prosecuting Attorney. She has reportedly been on administrative leave since late February.
The commission conducted an initial determination of the complaint and voted to summarily dismiss the complaint. The options were to investigate further, make a preliminary determination that probable cause existed to believe a violation was committed, or refer the complaint for prosecution.
