Members of a group who were arrested over Hawaii's traveler quarantine have been released from jail and returned to California.
The group known as Carbon Nation arrived in Hawaii over two days earlier this month. Some of them were seen at a Big Island beach the day they arrived. A video posted online showed their leader, Eligio Bishop, touching a sea turtle, police said.
Police arrested 21 of them last week on suspicion of violating a 14-day quarantine on all travelers arriving in the state. as helped Hawaii maintain low coronavirus infection rates compared with other parts of the U.S. As of Wednesday, 744 people have tested positive and 17 people have died.Bishop and two others were released Monday and flew back to Los Angeles after he pleaded no contest to the quarantine violation. He and another member say they didn’t realize Hawaii’s quarantine would be strictly enforced.
The remaining 18 were released Tuesday and took a flight that night to Los Angeles, said Jessica Lani Rich, president of the Visitor Aloha Society of Hawaii, which has been arranging flights out of the state for quarantine breakers.
