A Democratic congressional candidate knocked unconscious in a Maui<\/a> beach fight now faces felony charges in three separate cases, including allegations he threatened a county employee with what appeared to be a gun and assaulted a hospital nurse.<\/p>\n

Kirill Basin, 40, was charged with two counts of first-degree terroristic threatening after the Aug. 1 confrontation at Keawakapu Beach in South Kihei.<\/p>\n

Video captured an argument over music that escalated when Basin shoved Kama Homan and swung a beach chair at him. Homan pushed the chair away and knocked Basin unconscious.<\/p>\n

A criminal complaint<\/a> alleges Basin later threatened Homan with a knife. At Tuesday\u2019s court hearing, a judge maintained Basin\u2019s $1 million bail, ordered him not to contact Homan or four others and barred him from Keawakapu Beach and its parking lot.<\/p>\n

But the beach confrontation was not Basin\u2019s first trip through the criminal justice system this year.<\/p>\n

Four days later, prosecutors used the beach arrest to seek revocation of Basin\u2019s bail in a separate case accusing him of assaulting a Maui Memorial Medical Center nurse.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors said Basin threatened beachgoers, telling them, “I\u2019ll put you in the ground” and “I\u2019ll kill you.”<\/p>\n

He then allegedly reached into a small black bag and said, “Do I have a gun? I\u2019ll kill you,” before producing and brandishing a knife as a beachgoer tried to de-escalate the confrontation, the Aug. 5 court filing says.<\/p>\n

In the new beach case, Judge Christopher Dunn found probable cause to support a first-degree terroristic-threatening charge, the filing says. In the separate hospital-assault case, a judge issued a $400,000 bench warrant.<\/p>\n

That filing connected the beach confrontation to a criminal case that had been pending since June, extending a court record that began months before Basin was knocked unconscious on the sand.<\/p>\n

Basin\u2019s first court case this year began May 2, when police arrested him on a disorderly-conduct charge. Prosecutors say he fought or threatened people, made too much noise or used offensive language, even after he was told to stop.<\/p>\n

Later that month, a Maui grand jury indicted Basin on two counts of first-degree terroristic threatening over a May 29 encounter with a County of Maui employee.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors alleged in a July court filing that Basin pulled a tan-and-green handgun from a backpack and made threats involving the weapon while two other county employees watched.<\/p>\n

“On May 29, 2026, [Basin] approached a County of Maui employee \u2026 pulled out a tan and green colored handgun from his backpack, and made verbal threats about using the handgun,” prosecutors wrote.<\/p>\n

“Further, two other County of Maui employees were also present and both felt threatened for their lives due to [Basin\u2019s] actions,” the filing said.<\/p>\n

Basin\u2019s lawyers sharply disputed that version. In a later filing, they said police reports and surveillance footage showed Basin briefly displayed a muzzle-down pellet gun, did not point it at anyone and told witnesses to call police.<\/p>\n

Within two weeks, Basin was facing a second felony case<\/a>, this one over an alleged encounter at Maui Memorial Medical Center.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors wrote that Basin had been admitted to Maui Memorial\u2019s behavioral-health unit for evaluation, became aggressive and attempted to leave the emergency room before discharge. When nurses tried to restrain him, prosecutors alleged, Basin kicked one of them in the thigh.<\/p>\n

Basin pleaded not guilty. On July 20, the court granted his request to leave Hawaii<\/a> for inpatient treatment in Arizona, subject to conditions that included surrendering his passport, following a court-approved itinerary and appearing remotely for hearings.<\/p>\n

By July 27, the court was told Basin was in the Maui Recovery program in Lahaina. But after the Aug. 1 beach arrest, the court issued a $400,000 bench warrant in the hospital-assault case as prosecutors sought to revoke his bail.<\/p>\n

Fox News Digital has requested Maui Police Department reports, body-camera footage, dispatch audio, witness statements and evidence logs tied to the four criminal incidents. Fox News Digital also reached out to Basin\u2019s attorney, Brandon Segal, for comment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
