A Honolulu police officer on trial for "theft" and "tampering with government records" was found not guilty Tuesday afternoon.
Officer Eric Hokama hugged his attorney after the judge announced the acquittal on all 13 counts.
The prosecution tried to prove that Hokama stole 165 dollars between December 2010 and January 2011 by collecting money for miles traveled to and from court.
Hokama joined HPD in 2007.
During the investigation he was placed on restricted duty then was terminated and recently got his job back with restrictions.
