HONOLULU (AP) — A Hawaii business owner and a Maui County official have been charged in a bribery and public corruption case. Court documents unsealed Thursday accuse Milton Choy, whose company in Honolulu supplies wastewater services, of providing more than $2 million in cash and gifts to bribe Stewart Olani Stant in return for $19 million in county contracts. Stant was a wastewater manager and then director of the Maui County Department of Environmental Management. U.S. Attorney for Hawaii Clare Connors says the case is among the largest bribery cases ever investigated in the state. They will be arraigned Monday. Messages for Stant weren’t answered. An attorney for Choy said he admitted everything to federal investigators.
