SAN DIEGO -- Ninety-six people have been arrested, including 75 students, after a six-month undercover drug investigation centering on San Diego State University, the district attorney's office announced today.

Seven fraternity houses were infiltrated by undercover agents, authorities said. Agents allegedly discovered evidence of widespread drug-dealing among some fraternity members. Drugs involved included marijuana, cocaine and the drug Ecstasy.

The investigation, called Operation Sudden Fall, began after an overdose by a female student at the university, authorities said. During the investigation, a second student, at San Diego Mesa College, also died of an overdose. Some 130 drug purchases were made during the investigation.

"Our children are our biggest asset and absent a safe, drug-free learning environment, their chances of succeeding are greatly diminished," said Ralph W. Partridge, special agent in charge of the Drug Enforcement Administration in San Diego. "The university police and SDSU administration are to be commended for their swift actions in confronting the drug use problem on campus."

One alleged dealer was just a month away from receiving a master's degree in homeland security and had worked with the campus police as a security officer, officials said. Another student was arrested on suspicion of possession of cocaine and two guns was a criminal justice major, officials said.

One member of the Theta Chi fraternity sent out a mass text-message to "faithful customers," saying that he was traveling to Las Vegas and would not be able to make his normal cocaine sales, the DEA said.

According to the DEA, evidence includes 4 pounds of cocaine, 50 pounds of marijuana, 48 hydroponic marijuana plants, 350 ecstasy pills, psilocybin (mushrooms), 30 vials of hash oil, methamphetamine, various illicit prescription drugs, one shotgun, three semi-automatic pistols, three brass knuckles and $60,000 in cash.

damn ... :disgust

They call that a drug bust? lol

Just another day in PARADISE !!!

All those drugs and only $60,000 in cash....

You can probably raid any 7 dorms at random and get that LOL

they failed to mention that college kids like that typically don't deal for high yield profits

they keep the cost down to barely above their price....that way no one rats them out, or has a reason to get their dope anywhere off campus

its the safest way for college kids to get their dope.....on campus hookups

it cuts down on overdoses, homicides & cost to the students

what the police just did....was make all these kids "hit the block" to score their dope now

a sure way to screw up all kind of bright futures :2 cents:

Cazy Shit.

They aint children.

Yes we pretty much live in a nation of hypocrites. It's ok that the lawmakers did drugs while they were in school, but now they are gown up it's now different. All those drugs are just party drugs, IMO it's best to let them do it in college and get the partying over with.

OC is what they need to worry about, That shits the new "safe" Heroin and Crack

Party on Garth! :pimp

What a waste of tax dollars.

College kids party. College kids do drugs.

But theyre also IN COLLEGE because they plan on having a real job one day.

These efforts should go to bust all the worthless crackhead trash on welfare and food stamps, not ruin the life of young students.

So pathetic.

and THAT'S why they call SDSU a "party school"

:thumbsup

A couple busts in LB go down in the container range... not even a blip on the map... but under a 100 lbs variated in SD and its huge.
