Internet DUI gallery ends

Hawaii Independent Staff

Without fanfare, the Honolulu Police Department has pulled the plug on its weekly online photo gallery of drunken-driving suspects. Police officials yesterday announced that the department was reviewing the effectiveness of the pilot program, and that during the evaluation period the agency would not be posting the names and mug shots of drivers arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence.
