Most of the following story is based off of what must be the AP article that many papers used.
However it does have a few things I have not seen before:
Student from Hawaii caught up in drug bust
SAN DIEGO (AP) - An honors student pleaded not guilty Thursday to charges that he sold cocaine in an undercover operation that culminated in massive drug busts at San Diego State University.
Kenneth Ciaccio, the suspected leader of a cocaine trafficking ring at the 34,000-student campus, is accused of selling cocaine twice to government agents. He faces up to six years and four months in prison if he is convicted.
His mother wept behind her hand as he was led out of the courtroom in shackles........
Federal officials said 128 people, including at least 75 SDSU students as well as a student from Hawaii who attends Grossmont College in nearby El Cajon, were arrested during the five-month investigation. Some students detained for minor drug offenses or other infractions turned informants for federal agents..........
Ciaccio's lawyer, Michael Messina, said he had not seen any evidence proving that his client was at the center of the ring purportedly operating out of the rundown fraternity house, a block off Fraternity Row.
"I do not believe he's the main guy," Messina said after the court hearing.
