Huge Drug Bust At San Diego State University

Students at San Diego State were living the high life a bit too much. An undercover drug operation arrested 75 students on Tuesday. There were a total of 96 arrests made by the DEA and police. Partying hard is going to cost many more than just bail.

Some of the students are in school studying for degrees in criminal justice and homeland security. Those arrested had guns, money and drugs in their possession. The operation began in May 2007 when a student overdosed. Another overdose death happened as recently as Februaru at a frat house.

"DEA agents infiltrated several student drug distribution cells and more than 130 drug purchases and seizures were made" during the investigation known as Operation Sudden Fall, according to the press release.

The arrests were a direct result of an SDSU-led investigation according to the school's website. Arrested students have been suspended and will not be allowed to take final exams until completion of the due-process review entitled under the law. Those that lived in dorms have been evicted. The drug charges ranged from possession to selling cocaine. Defendants will face the judge later this afternoon.
