JL Capital CEO Timothy Lee pleaded not guilty to nine counts of False Name Contribution for making campaign donations under false names in 2020 amounting to $13,000. The donations were made to Honolulu mayor candidates Keith Amemiya and Kymberly Pine. Lee used different names for each donation, potentially in an attempt to bypass campaign contribution limits. A whistleblower had previously reported that Lee filed contributions under employees, including himself, with promises of reimbursement. Lee was released on a $250,000 bond and has requested a jury trial scheduled for April 21, 2025. This case highlights the importance of transparency and honesty in political campaign funding, as well as the consequences that can arise from attempting to deceive the system. Stay tuned for further developments in this case as it unfolds.
