Medical examiner says drug overdose killed Miske; 'This appears to be accidental'
Honolulu crime boss Michael J. Miske Jr., 50, died of "fentanyl and para-fluorofentanyl toxicity" in what appears to be an accidental death while Miske was being held in the federal courthouse awaiting sentencing, the Honolulu Medical Examiner's Office said today.
How Miske died "is still pending," the office said in a statement. "However, based on the information currently available, the manner of death in this case appears to be accidental."
Federal agents arrested Miske on July 15, 2020, and a federal jury convicted him of conspiracy, murder and 11 other charges on July 18.
