A Maui police officer facing felony drug charges is asking to keep statements he made to police detectives from being used at a trial, with his attorney saying the officer didn't waive his constitutional rights before speaking with detectives.
Ryan Masada, an 18-year police veteran, has pleaded not guilty to charges of third-degree promotion of a dangerous drug and possessing drug paraphernalia.
The 40-year-old Makawao resident was charged with the offenses after police recovered a glass pipe containing crystal methamphetamine residue that Masada allegedly discarded Feb. 10, 2010, in the junior men's locker room at the Wailuku Police Station.
