Over 20 California High School Students Arrested in Undercover Drug Bust
    #19274111 - 12/14/13 10:41 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

DRUG ARRESTS: Perris and Menifee students snared by undercover deputies
pe.com

About two dozen students were arrested Thursday morning, Dec. 12, at high schools in Menifee and Perris as part of a semester-long undercover drug investigation in which deputies posed as students, authorities said.

Deputies descended on the campuses of Paloma Valley High School and Perris High School during second period to make the arrests, Riverside County sheriff’s officials said.

Lt. Paul Bennett said deputies identified a total of 25 students, two of whom are adults, suspected of selling drugs. Officers served 22 drug-related arrest warrants on campus Thursday. Three suspects weren’t in school Thursday and are still at large, he said.

The adult students – Serina Ramirez, 18, and Erick De La Cruz, 19 – were arrested at Perris High School. They were booked into the Southwest Detention Center in French Valley.

The minors were booked into Juvenile Hall.

Two deputies – a woman at Perris and a man at Paloma – had been posing as students since the beginning of the school year in an attempt to ferret out drug dealing on campus. Over the course of the investigation, deputies seized drugs including marijuana, cocaine, crack cocaine, methamphetamine, hashish and various prescription pills, the release said. Bennett said most of the drug buys were for small amounts of marijuana.

Officers also served search warrants at the Menifee and Perris homes of two of the students arrested, Bennett said.

After school at Paloma Valley, the drug bust was the talk of campus – and rumors were flying. Some students were convinced they knew which classmate was the undercover deputy. Other students feared there were other undercover deputies and even wondered aloud about a substitute teacher who struck them as suspicious.

The students said officers came into classrooms with photos of the teen suspects and handcuffed them in front of everyone.

Anthony Rodriguez, 16, said the officers weren’t on campus for long.

“They knew who they were looking for and exactly how to get there,” he said.

Trevor Steinrichter, 16, said police showed up in his history class.

“Scary. I saw my friend get arrested,” he said.

Bruce Hollen, 16, said it was disturbing to think a deputy was posing as a student.

“You think you can trust people – you just never know,” he said.

Jonathan Greenberg, superintendent of the Perris Union High School District, said the Sheriff’s Department approached the district earlier this year proposing an undercover operation.

Greenberg said he had no reservations.

“It was a question of what we could do to assist them,” he said.

“This is a very well-researched program,” he added. “The people in it are all professionals.”

Greenberg said there were only three district officials who knew about the investigation. No one on the two campuses was told. He said he informed school board members Wednesday night.

The Sheriff’s Department has been conducting undercover drug investigations on high school campuses for the past few years.

Last year, the investigation focused on Chaparral and Temecula Valley high schools in Temecula. About two dozen students were arrested. One of those arrests, of a special education student with autism, has prompted a lawsuit against the Temecula Valley Unified School District.

In 2011, undercover deputies posed as students at Vista del Lago High School in Moreno Valley and Elsinore High School in Wildomar. And in 2010, there was a similar sting at Palm Desert High School.

The Los Angeles Police Department pioneered undercover drug busts in high schools decades ago. But the department discontinued its program in 2005 after Los Angeles Unified School District officials noticed an increasing number of students arrested were in special education and that police typically found very small amounts of marijuana. District officials feared the program was failing to catch the serious drug dealers.

Bennett said the deputies selected to go undercover this year received additional training about special needs students, in addition to training about avoiding entrapment.

He said all of those arrested this year are “mainstream students” in general education classes.

Greenberg said undercover operations are helpful but are just one part of an “overall strategy” to keep drugs off campus. For example, the district also brings drug-sniffing dogs to campus, he said.

He said he was aware of the controversy in Temecula, but believes most parents support these kinds of operations.

Outside Paloma Thursday afternoon Thuy Olbert, a parent, said she didn’t object to an undercover drug investigation, but questioned how effective it would be at eliminating drug activity at school.

“I highly doubt it’s going to stop it,” she said.

“I’m just glad my kid wasn’t one of the ones who got arrested,” she said with a laugh, “because he’d be dead!”

Outrageous. This is wrong on so many levels. Way to go, giving your students a record before they even finish high school. They sure were dangers to society buying that 1 gram of weed. So stupid...

And now you have made at least this person suspect of people for the rest of his life.  Way to go!

Wow. I'm so glad and feel so much safer that a few high school students were arrested for selling dimebags... In California. What the fuck?

Well, at least they didn't arrest any mentally disabled kids after harrasing them for months (as was the case in Temecula) The average cop has a lower IQ than the average drug user :smile:

I can't believe they need to trick minors into ruining they're lives over a very small amount of pot or one or two pills . Posing as student s, completely lying to them into order to trick them into a small sale should be considered entrapment, esp since it was to young kids that would be easier to deceive and not posess the knowlage of the sevarity of even the small amounts.

Disgusting..

10 students per High School and one of them is 19. 
Something tells me they arrested part of a special ed class.

Ah Cops, never to low to pick on kids and the special needs.
This was a good education for students though, never trust cops, they lie to your face.

Wow. This is disgusting.

Do police really have nothing better to do, than to pretend to be kids?
Then, ruin the lives of kids for merely dealing some hash and other silly shit?

Every day I hear more and more things about the police state in America.
I have no respect for them. I mean, someone with a heart could not ruin a kids life like that.

Happened just last year at my high school as I was getting ready for college. One of my friends got caught up in it, helping the dude get a 5 sack, not even really selling it. Turns out he was a teacher's aid in one of my classes, creepy.

Stories like this are why I was always overly cautious at school. They also are exactly why I hate and am very bias of the police.

You know how it feels, With the breeze of the sun in your eyes. Not minding that time's passing by

I've got all and more, My smile, just as before. Is all that I carry with me

I talk to myself, I need nobody else. I'm lost and I'm mine, yes I'm free

I wonder what is worse for a young person: a bag of marijuana or two years in prison?? Seems prison is clearly the least harmful (note sarcasm.)

Whenever someone writes that police officers posed as students I immediately get this image of Beverly polcyn from "Not another teen movie" in my head and ask how?!?
