夏威夷州Honolulu男子Penitila Faamoe保释期间持枪被联邦起诉：此前涉向25岁男子开枪，最高面临15年监禁
美国司法部夏威夷区联邦检察官办公室宣布，夏威夷州Honolulu市24岁男子Penitila Faamoe因非法持有枪支被联邦起诉，并于10月27日在联邦治安法官Kenneth J. Mansfield面前出庭，被裁定羁押候审。Faamoe持枪时正处于保释期间，他此前因涉嫌向一名25岁男子开枪，已被州检方以一级鲁莽危害罪起诉。起诉书于2026年10月15日递交。
法庭文件显示，Faamoe是一名重罪前科人员，2026年5月30日持有了一支上膛的左轮手枪，该枪的序列号已被磨除。持枪当时他正值保释期间：2025年1月23日，他涉嫌向一名25岁男子开枪，之后被控一级鲁莽危害罪，该州法院案件仍在审理中。
若联邦持枪罪名成立，Faamoe面临最高15年监禁、25万美元罚款，外加一段监管释放期。夏威夷区联邦检察官Ken Sorenson宣布了这一起诉；此案由联邦调查局（FBI）与Honolulu警察局联合调查，助理联邦检察官Jeannette Graviss负责起诉。此案属司法部全国性的「安全社区计划」（Project Safe Neighborhoods）与「夺回美国行动」框架。
检方提醒，起诉书中的指控仅为指控，被告在法庭以排除合理怀疑的标准证明有罪之前，均被推定为无罪；若定罪，具体刑期将由联邦地区法官依据法定量刑因素与量刑指南裁定。
Honolulu Felon Penitila Faamoe Charged With Possessing a Firearm While on Bond in a Reckless Endangering Case Involving an Alleged Shooting
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Hawaii announced that Penitila Faamoe, 24, of Honolulu, Hawaii, has been indicted for illegally possessing a firearm and was ordered detained pending trial after appearing on October 27 before U.S. Magistrate Judge Kenneth J. Mansfield. Faamoe possessed the firearm while out on bond in a state case in which he is charged with reckless endangering after allegedly shooting at a 25-year-old man. The federal indictment was returned on October 15, 2026.
According to court filings, Faamoe, a convicted felon, possessed a loaded revolver with an obliterated serial number on May 30, 2026. He was out on bond at the time. He had been charged with reckless endangering in the first degree after allegedly shooting at a 25-year-old man on January 23, 2025. That case is pending in state court.
If convicted, Faamoe faces up to 15 years in prison, a $250,000 fine, plus a term of supervised release. U.S. Attorney Ken Sorenson announced the charge. The FBI and the Honolulu Police Department are investigating the case, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeannette Graviss is prosecuting. The case is part of the Project Safe Neighborhoods initiative, a key component of Operation Take Back America.
The charge in the indictment is merely an accusation, and the defendant is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. If convicted, any sentence would be imposed by a U.S. District Judge based on the statutory sentencing factors and the advisory U.S. Sentencing Guidelines.
