Actions by officials on Maui have contributed to an air of suspicion about handling the Lahaina fire that killed over 100 and left around 1000 people unaccounted for, including many children.
In a shocking development, a leaked letter revealed that Maui County Officials have instructed the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to immediately halt posting images and videos related to the recent Maui wildfire disaster.
The decision has sparked controversy and raised questions about transparency and the public’s right to information during a crisis.
An individual who wishes to remain anonymous has shared an email from FEMA with Anthony Cabassa, Host of ‘Informed Daily’ on YouTube.
