Maximiliana La'akea Aurelius (Kini)
Her Story
Maximiliana La'akea Aurelius — known as Kini — was admitted to Kapi'olani Medical Center in October 2025. What followed was a documented series of medical decisions, withheld nutrition, and institutional actions that her father, Etienne Aurelius, has fought in civil court through four hearings.
Max has demonstrated a 10/10 motor response score — witnessed by hospital staff. She responds to stimulation. She is alive and present. Yet her sole-custody father was banned from her bedside on January 14, 2026, following a social media repost that the hospital used as justification for a retaliatory ban.
No physical threat was made. No court order justified the ban. The ban has been in place for over 51 days.
Your donation funds the legal fight to bring her home.
Timeline of Events

The Betrayal
30 days of withheld nutrition. Documented in court filings. The day everything changed.
The Proof
The 10/10 motor response video. Witnessed by hospital staff. She is alive and responding.
The Retaliation
An Instagram repost. A retaliatory ban. Protected speech used as justification for separation.
Contempt of Court
The court orders the hospital chose to ignore. The legal record laid bare.
The Plea
A direct call to federal civil rights attorneys. The $261M Maya precedent. The ask.
Documented Federal Violations
01
Deprivation of constitutional rights under color of state law — the hospital's retaliatory ban violates the father's 14th Amendment rights.
02
As sole-custody parent, Etienne holds full legal rights to medical information and decision-making for Maximiliana.
03
The ban was issued directly following a social media repost — a constitutionally protected act of speech.
04
No hearing, no court order, no due process preceded the ban. A father's right to parent cannot be removed without judicial review.
05
Court orders issued in Motions #1 and #3 have been ignored by the hospital. This constitutes civil contempt.
06
Withholding nutrition from a pediatric patient for 30 documented days may constitute medical neglect under federal statute.
