Dec. 29, 2006) (Hawaii conviction for Abuse of a Family or Household Member, in violation of Hawaii Revised Statutes 709-906(1), did not involve the "violent use of force," as required under Armed Career Criminal Act, 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(33)(A)(ii), under a modified categorical analysis, since nothing in the record of conviction establishes that the defendant acted with a mental state greater than recklessness).
