Summary
Batarti Gabbard, Tulsi Gabbard’s older brother, got arrested again—this time in Waikiki for allegedly trying to lure kids into his hotel room with gum and cash. Police say he approached a nine-year-old and others by the pool, wrote down their names, then was stopped by a concerned adult. He now faces custodial interference charges, added to a prior theft arrest he’s already pleaded not guilty to. Family reports suggest he’s been spiraling—sleeping rough, acting erratically, possibly due to substance use—and was recently hospitalized under a 72-hour psychiatric hold.
