Honolulu Civil Beat | Tenants hurt by Red Hill water crisis sent to collections: Civil Beat on Hawaii News Now Sunrise @civilbeat | Uploaded February 2024 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.

Monique Delgado is among the tenants at Kapilina Beach Homes that filed suit. And last month, she was hit with a collections notice for more than $30,000, as Reporter Christina Jedra told Hawaii News Now "Sunrise."
“When do the blows just stop happening?” Delgado said in an interview. “Do we just keep getting beat up for years from this thing?”
