flag Michael Miske, a Hawaii crime figure, allegedly overdosed on fentanyl in federal custody in Dec. 2024 to evade forfeiture of $20M in assets.

flag The U.S. government alleges Michael Miske, a Hawaii crime figure convicted in July 2024 on charges including murder and racketeering, intentionally overdosed on fentanyl while in federal custody in December 2024 to evade asset forfeiture. flag Prosecutors claim he orchestrated the suicide by smuggling drugs into the Honolulu jail via a former inmate, using small doses to mimic an accidental overdose. flag The government seeks to recover over $20 million in assets, including luxury vehicles, property, and financial accounts, transferred to a trust benefiting his young granddaughter, arguing the death was a calculated effort to block forfeiture. flag A court has not yet ruled on the motion to amend the civil forfeiture complaint.
