 (AP) — A former Maui police officer has been sentenced to two-and-a-half years in prison for fraud charges resulting from when he solicited sex from a woman he pulled over. Brandon Saffeels pleaded guilty previously to seven counts of honest services wire fraud. He says he offered to help the woman by botching his testimony in the 2019 traffic stop and eventually wanted to pursue a sexual relationship with her. Prosecutors say he got the woman’s phone number from a police report and then solicited a bribe in the form of sexual favors in exchange for helping her circumvent prosecution for drunk driving.
