Two men arrested in connection with the Kaua‘i Police Department’s recent drug bust have been identified as a Kula Intermediate and High School eighth-grade teacher and the vice principal.

Police seized 50 marijuana plants, processed marijuana, drug paraphernalia and ammunition last week from a Moloa‘a home. The raid prompted the arrests of Kula Intermediate and High School Vice Principal and Athletic Director David Rojeck, 42, and Alan Bertolino, 43, the school’s eighth-grade physical science teacher.

Bertolino faces charges of second-degree commercial production of marijuana, third-degree promotion of a detrimental drug and third-degree prohibited acts related to drug paraphernalia.

Rojeck is accused of third-degree promotion of a detrimental drug, a petty misdemeanor.
