Boston Police Blotter: Hawaii child rape fugitive arrested in Massachusetts
U.S. Marshals in Worcester arrested a woman wanted for child rape in Hawaii.
Authorities arrested Coleen Kuamo`o, also known as Malama Kuamo`o, 43, who is wanted in Hawaii for one count of sexual assault in the first degree, three counts of sexual assault in the third degree and one count of use of a computer in the commission of a crime. Authorities say that she assaulted a child in Wailuku, Hawaii.
“Anyone who thinks they can flee across the country to avoid facing justice is mistaken,” said Acting U.S. Marshal for Massachusetts Kevin Neal. The U.S. Marshals Service is committed to ensuring fugitives face justice – no matter where they run.”
The Maui Police Department and the Marshals Service in Hawaii contacted the Massachusetts Marshals Service in Massachusetts because they believed the fugitive was hiding in the Bay State. Marshals tracked her down in Worcester Thursday.

Life Care Center of Raynham earns deficiency‑free state inspection
Life Care Center of Raynham has received a deficiency‑free inspection result from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, a distinction awarded to a small share of the state’s licensed nursing homes, according to a community announcement.
The inspection was conducted as part of the state’s routine, unannounced nursing home survey process overseen by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. These comprehensive, multi‑day inspections evaluate multiple aspects of facility operations, including staffing levels, quality of care, medication management, cleanliness, food service and resident rights.
State survey records show that Life Care Center of Raynham met required standards during its most recent standard survey, with no deficiencies cited, based on publicly available state data.
The announcement states that fewer than 8% of Massachusetts nursing homes achieve deficiency‑free survey results. That figure could not be independently verified through state or federal data and is attributed to the announcement.
In addition to the state survey outcome, the facility is listed as a five‑star provider for quality measures on the federal Medicare Care Compare website. The five‑star quality measure rating reflects above‑average performance compared with other nursing homes nationwide, according to federal rating methodology.
Officials said the inspection results reflect ongoing compliance with state and federal standards designed to protect resident health and safety. According to the announcement, the outcome is attributed to staff performance and internal quality practices.
