Royal Kunia Jail Roster
The Royal Kunia jail roster is not kept by the small hillside community itself. Royal Kunia sits inside the City and County of Honolulu, between Waipahu and Mililani, so arrests here go through the Honolulu Police Department. Once booked, the person moves to the Oahu Community Correctional Center. To check a Royal Kunia jail roster entry, use VINELink for custody status, read the HPD 14-day adult arrest log, or call OCCC with a full name.
Royal Kunia Overview
HPD Royal Kunia Patrol
Royal Kunia is patrolled by central and leeward Oahu units of the Honolulu Police Department. HPD is the only law enforcement agency making arrests in the area. There is no separate Royal Kunia police force and no local jail. Any arrest made on Kunia Road, Anonui Street, or up toward the old pineapple fields moves into HPD intake. The main HPD line is (808) 529-3111.
Central Receiving at the Alapai headquarters is where every Royal Kunia jail roster entry takes shape. The mug shot is taken there, the prints are rolled, and the case number is set. A booking out of Royal Kunia often shows up in the HPD system the same day. After that, the person either posts bail and walks, or moves on to OCCC for a longer hold.
The lead-in image below comes from the HPD main site, which links each district station and the Alapai intake office tied to any Royal Kunia jail roster booking.
The HPD homepage above gives direct lines for each district station, which is the fastest way to verify the beat where a Royal Kunia arrest was made.
How to Search Royal Kunia Jail Roster
There are three clear tools. Each one opens a slice of the Royal Kunia jail roster.
Start with VINELink. The statewide VINE portal lists current custody status for any person held in a Hawaii state jail. Type a name or offender ID. You can sign up for alerts. VINE is free, and it keeps your contact info private. It is the best first stop for a Royal Kunia jail roster check.
Next, read the HPD adult arrest log. The log stays up for 14 days. Every Royal Kunia booking posted in that window shows up with name, age, sex, race, offense, and report number. Juveniles do not appear.
Last, call OCCC at (808) 832-1777. Staff can confirm if a named Royal Kunia arrest is still in custody. Offense details will not be read out by phone. For that, use the HPD arrest log or eCourt Kokua.
To run a solid Royal Kunia jail roster search, try to have:
- Full legal name and any known alias
- Date of birth if known
- Rough arrest date and nearest street
- Report number if you have one
OCCC Oahu Community Correctional Center
Royal Kunia arrests held past booking are detained at the Oahu Community Correctional Center. OCCC sits at 2199 Kamehameha Highway, Honolulu, HI 96819. The main phone is (808) 832-1777. The site has about 950 beds and holds adult men and women waiting for trial or serving short sentences. OCCC is the core of the Royal Kunia jail roster after intake.
OCCC is run by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, not by the city. That means a Royal Kunia arrest by HPD ends up in a state bed. Business office hours are 8 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. daily, except on state holidays. Visits run 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. daily and must be set up by calling (808) 832-1633 between 9 a.m. and noon.
The lead-in image is the DCR page for OCCC. It shows the visit steps, deposit rules, and phone numbers used to check on a Royal Kunia jail roster hold.
The OCCC page above has the contact list for visitation, cash deposits, and general inmate info tied to any Royal Kunia jail roster entry.
The daily cash deposit cap is $60 per inmate. Only close family can make deposits during the first 30 days. Money orders and cashier's checks are also accepted. Mail rules are strict, and contents are screened.

Central Receiving Division Booking
Every Royal Kunia arrest passes through the Central Receiving Division. CRD runs HPD's main cell block at Alapai headquarters, 801 South Beretania Street, Honolulu, HI 96813. This is where photos, prints, and charge sheets happen. From CRD, the person either bonds out, gets released on their own recognizance, or moves on to OCCC.
CRD is the first stop on the Royal Kunia jail roster path for most cases. Intake is fast on a quiet night but can back up after a weekend sweep. On busy nights, a new arrest can sit for hours before booking clears. The main HPD line is (808) 529-3111. CRD does not take public lookup calls. Use VINE or the HPD arrest log instead.
Note: A person arrested in Royal Kunia may not show up in any public source for several hours while booking is still in progress at Central Receiving.
HPD Arrest Logs 14-Day Window
The Honolulu Police Department posts the adult arrest log each day. This is the quickest way to catch fresh Royal Kunia jail roster names before the full court file appears. The log covers date, time, name, age, sex, race, the arresting officer, the offense, and the report number. Juveniles never appear.
Logs stay up for 14 days after the date of issue. The same log also shows 24 hours a day at the Alapai headquarters security post. You can copy it by hand there. Older logs need a written request to the Records and Identification Division. Phone and walk-in requests for older records are not accepted. Access rules follow the Uniform Information Practices Act.
The police reports page shows the email contact, the current fees, and the mail address tied to each Royal Kunia jail roster report on file.
Records and Identification Division
The Records and Identification Division holds all police reports for Royal Kunia cases. The office is part of HPD and sits at 801 South Beretania Street, Honolulu, HI 96813. Public reports come out only after the case is closed. If a report is not releasable, the division can often send a verification letter instead.
Fees are small. A standard page copy runs 50 cents for the first page and 25 cents for each extra page. Color copies are 65 cents. Verification letters start at $1. Big requests may need a deposit up front. Reports longer than ten pages often take more than one day to pull. For a full criminal history tied to a Royal Kunia jail roster entry, HPD points people to the Hawaii Criminal Justice Data Center at 465 South King Street, Room 102. That office runs name and fingerprint checks.
Email, mail, and in-person requests all work. The standard response window is about ten business days. Rush jobs are not offered. Keep a copy of the request and any payment receipts.
First Circuit Court eCourt Kokua
Every Royal Kunia jail roster name eventually lands in the First Circuit Court. The Hawaii State Judiciary runs eCourt Kokua, a free online case lookup. Search by name to find case numbers, charges, court dates, and case outcomes. This ties a Royal Kunia jail roster booking to a court file you can track over time.
Initial appearances happen within 48 hours of arrest, not counting weekends or state holidays. If the person bonds out or gets released on their own word, they drop off the jail roster fast. If not, the case moves through arraignment, motions, and trial while the hold stays in place. eCourt Kokua is the bridge between a booking at OCCC and the final case result.
The VINELink site above is the free statewide portal used to confirm any Royal Kunia jail roster custody status across Hawaii facilities in near real time.
Royal Kunia Jail Roster Laws
Two laws shape the Royal Kunia jail roster. Under HRS Chapter 353, the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation has a duty to keep records on every person held in custody. This is the legal base of every jail roster in the state, including the one that covers Royal Kunia.
The second is the Uniform Information Practices Act, or UIPA, in HRS Chapter 92F. UIPA sets the rules for public access to state and county records. The Office of Information Practices reads UIPA through its formal opinions. UIPA is why the HPD 14-day log is public. It is also why some older arrest records with no conviction stay limited. Any Royal Kunia jail roster request that hits a wall usually has a UIPA answer behind it.
Federal arrests in the Royal Kunia area do not land on the county roster. They go to the Federal Detention Center Honolulu. Use the BOP inmate locator for any federal hold.
Honolulu County Jail Roster
Royal Kunia sits inside the City and County of Honolulu. The countywide hub has the full view of OCCC intake, all HPD district stations, and every Oahu booking path.
