*KPD announces new Deputy Chief appointment*

LĪHUʻE – The Kaua‘i Police Department (KPD) is pleased to announce the appointment of Assistant Chief Mark Ozaki as the new Deputy Chief, effective October 1, 2024. The Deputy Chief position is the second-in-command of the department, a role that has been vacant for two years, and is a pivotal part of the leadership team.

Assistant Chief Ozaki brings a wealth of experience to his new role, having served with KPD for the past 25 years.  He was born and raised on Kaua`i and joined KPD in 1999 as a police officer. Throughout his career, he has worked a wide variety of assignments in every division of the department and has consistently risen through the ranks. Assistant Chief Ozaki has been the driving force behind many impactful programs and initiatives including the highly successful Kaua`i Police Activities League (K-PAL), Peer Support Program, and Crisis Intervention Training (CIT) program, to name a few.  

Assistant Chief Ozaki graduated from Waimea High School and attended the University of Hawai‘i at Hilo. He is a 2020 graduate of the prestigious FBI National Academy in Quantico, Virginia. For years, Assistant Chief Ozaki has been highly dedicated to his loving family, and youth programs, as both a coach and mentor to many of Kaua’i’s young people. 

“Mark is a person of very high character. His dedication to the department and the Kaua`i community is well known and he has earned a broad-based reputation for integrity and excellence. Mark is a team builder, and his appointment represents a significant step forward for the department,” stated Chief Todd Raybuck. “I am very thankful to Mark and his family for his willingness to take on this important role.”

Assistant Chief Ozaki shared, “I am most looking forward to supporting the men and women of the Kaua`i Police Department in the amazing work they perform every day. I love God, my family, the island of Kaua`i, this department and our people, and I am honored to have the opportunity to take on this responsibility and help move the organization forward.”

The Kaua‘i Police Department looks forward to the positive impact his leadership will have on the department and the community we serve.
