Man sentenced for following boy

A 36-year-old Mainland man has been sentenced to four years and three months in federal prison for violating a court order to stay away from a Hawai'i boy.

Ed Kubo, U.S. attorney for Hawai'i, said that Kenneth "Chip" McNeil became close friends with a 12-year-old boy during a visit to Hawai'i in 2001. In early March 2001, the boy’s parents terminated McNeil’s access to the boy.

In August 2001, McNeil approached the boy at an airport in Houston. His parents got a three-year protective order banning McNeil from contacting their son, Kubo said.

Despite the order, McNeil flew from California to Hawai'i and on May 26, 2002, approached the boy at Mililani Town Center.

McNeil followed the boy, repeatedly asked the boy to talk with him and when the boy refused, he grabbed the boy and his bicycle to keep him from leaving, Kubo said.
