HONOLULU (KHON2) — Prosecutors laid out more detailed evidence as they seek to prove Eric Thompson killed acupuncturist, Jon Tokuhara, in a calculated murder.

Using a timeline created by Honolulu Police investigators based on surveillance video, prosecutors laid out what they said was a clear picture of Thompson’s movements on the day of Jon Tokuhara’s killing.

They argued the timestamps of surveillance footage collected from multiple locations showing a Chevy truck matching one owned by Thompson aligned with when Tokuhara was believed to have been shot inside his Waipahu acupuncture clinic on Jan. 12, 2022.

“What is the first car we see in the Waipahu bound portion of the highway after Thompson’s white four-door pickup truck takes a right-hand turn (onto Kalanianaeole Highway)?” Deputy Prosecutor Ben Rose asked HPD Detective Kaiminaauao Mead.

“A white pickup truck,” answered Det. Mead.

However, the defense pushed back, calling the evidence circumstantial.

“You don’t have any evidence of Eric’s truck going westbound on these thoroughfares,” questioned Thompson’s attorney, Nelson Goo.

“Actually on the highway? No,” answered Det. Mead.

Prosecutors also attempted to link the suspect seen at the crime scene with Thompson. The suspect is seen in surveillance video wearing a windbreaker jacket with a dark-colored shirt, long pants, sunglasses, face mask and a white bucket hat. However, the defense challenged the accuracy of this implication.

“You know that in your closing report that you prepared in this case, mentions no fact of any type of this clothing was ever recovered?” asked Goo.

“Yes,” responded Det. Mead.

Questions also arose about a fire and a bucket prosecutors allege Thompson used to burn evidence.

Investigators recovered the bucket but admitted no forensic testing was conducted to determine if residue of clothing or other key evidence was present.

“No testing for the residue was ever done to confirm whether clothing or those shoes were ever burned in this pot, correct?” asked Goo.

“Yes,” Det. Mead answered.

The state rested its case on Thursday. More witnesses for the defense will take the stand on Friday, Feb. 7.
