He was going to say something else, something along the lines of was that so hard? and he probably still will, but he's caught offguard for a second by a faint push of familiarity. "I know that name."
He's heard it once or twice. Even a haole who can't catch a break is a few circles above a dirty cop, and Chin Ho Kelly is HPD's favorite worst-case scenario, a cautionary tale to cops who step out of line or feel tempted to start fleecing a little of the take in cash or drug busts. Meka mentioned it one night, but didn't offer any details or opinions, and Danny didn't ask.
Personally, he doesn't know if the guy was rotten or not. He'd rather believe the best of the cops he works with, even if they're assholes to him, but then again, he didn't want to believe it of Peterson, either, and look where that landed them.
Which leaves him with the question of whether he tells Steve that his dad's protege left the force because there was dirt all over his name and career, even if it was never proven.
Then again, maybe someone like that is exactly what they need. "So where's he now?"
