The 29-year-old was killed by Honolulu police in an apparent burglary in April.
The South African-born rugby player allegedly walked into a woman’s house which prompted her to call the police.
The woman alleges in the call that Myeni was following her previously said to her that he’s new in the community.

Police also released two video clips from the body cameras of officers while an independent probe is underway to determine the circumstances leading to Myeni’s death.
His body was repatriated and landed at OR Tambo on Saturday.
