A Maui police leader will stay in jail while he fights federal corruption charges — bad news for him and another black eye for the department.

• Lieutenant Michael Lala, who ran the criminal intelligence unit, was arrested by the FBI and accused of taking bribes for years.
• Prosecutors say he protected drug traffickers, illegal cockfighters, and illegal fireworks dealers from arrest.
• A judge kept him locked up, calling him a flight risk and a danger to the public.
• He allegedly leaked confidential informant identities, evidence, and a pending wiretap, raising fears he could obstruct the case.
• Prosecutors also pointed to warning signs: he deleted his Instagram right before arrest and is trying to sell his house.

Outlook: Lala stays behind bars and is due back in federal court on August 27.
