 State v. Arakawa
Arakawa stated that he had "busted" Carmichael in the face and broken her nose while the couple was in a van in front of Arakawa's father's house in Lahaina.
While Arakawa was driving around a bend in the road, he glanced to his right side at Carmichael, and Carmichael struck him in the face with something and said, "You fucker, you can't leave me." Because Arakawa had turned his face to the right, the abrasion was to his left cheek.
Arakawa was charged with intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly engaging in and causing physical abuse of a family or household member (Carmichael) in violation of HRS § 709-906.

 Arakawa's guilt upheld - The Honolulu Advertiser - Hawaii's Newspaper
Arakawa did not testify, but a defense expert told the jury that because Arakawa was an "experienced drinker" who had a "practiced liver," he was able to consume such a quantity of alcohol without becoming drunk.
Arakawa was tested for alcohol nearly seven hours after the fatal accident, and police said it was only to determine if he was sober enough to be questioned by detectives.
Arakawa was sentenced in April 2002 to 20 years in prison, and must serve at least 18 years before being eligible for parole.

 Arakawa's Computation Device
Arakawa had graduated from the University of Tokyo shortly after the end of the Second World War only to find job opportunities for scientists severely limited, and took up a career in the growing enterprise of practical meteorology.

Arakawa + Gins recently contributed "Living Body Museumeum," an architectural proposal and manifesto, to "Cities WIthout Citizens," co-published by Slought Foundation and the Rosenbach Museum and Library, and edited by Eduardo Cadava and Aaron Levy.
What Arakawa and Gins have done for forty years now has been to act upon Foucault’s admonitions by investigating the conditions of possibility of a new episteme that would take stock of the exhaustion of the old humanistic paradigm.
This paradigm was defined by the promotion of “man” as an object of action and knowledge, man taken in the dimension of a mortal being whose authenticity was determined and conditioned by a singular relation to death.
