Former Moanalua High wrestling coach held without bail in child porn case

Sep 29, 2026

A former Hawaii high school girls wrestling coach is jailed without bail on a federal child pornography charge, and the FBI is now asking the public for help finding other possible victims.

  • Shan Sakaida, 44, was arrested last week and made his first federal court appearance.
  • Court filings say he received nude photos from a 17-year-old girl he coached at Moanalua High School.
  • The alleged contact happened between 2025 and 2026.
  • He faces up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted.

Outlook: He is due back in court Wednesday while the FBI keeps searching for additional victims.
