No Criminal Charges Expected in Aftermath of Maui Wildfire
Briefly

Investigators uncovered multiple failures in Hawaii's response to the Lahaina wildfire, yet the attorney general does not plan to pursue criminal charges against anyone involved.
The attorney general's report revealed a culture of underestimating wildfire risks, lack of preparedness, and a series of flawed decisions that delayed evacuations during a dangerous fire.
Although several agencies published extensive reports on the Lahaina wildfire, key issues remain unresolved, such as delayed evacuation alerts and the fire's origin and spread.
With residents witnessing flames near a downed power line, the urgency for a conclusive determination by agencies like the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has intensified.
