[NYPOST] A Hawaii liquor commissioner was forced to resign after she allegedly flaunted her badge to get into a nightclub, and then threatened to shut the business down during a drunken confrontation with employees. Lisa Martin stepped down from her position as the vice-chairwoman of the Honolulu Liquor Commission on Monday following her alleged attempt at abusing her power, according to Hawaii News Now. In the earlier hours of Saturday morning, Martin, 54, arrived at the Playbar Nightclub in Waikiki with a friend. She then allegedly flashed her liquor commissioner badge at the club’s door to gain entry into the establishment, according to a police report obtained by the outlet. "Do yous know whose I is?" Inside, Martin was confronted by employees after they believed she was already too drunk to be in the bar. Once she was asked to leave, things quickly escalated. A Playbar Nightclub employee claimed the now-former liquor commission threatened to shut the bar down, according to a police report obtained by the outlet. |
