Principal busted for dealing crystal meth
Categories: Alcohol & Drugs, Education
After finding drugs in his middle-school office, police have charged John Acerra, a 50-year old principal in Allentown, Pennsylvannia, with dealing crystal methamphetamine, according to CNN.com.
You know you've reached an absolute low when the person not only in charge of students, but teachers as well, is involved in illegal drug activities - and on school property no less!
Apparently, an informant advised police in early February that the principal was both using and distributing the drug, commonly known as crystal meth or "ice". A representative from the DEA has stated that "there was no indication that Acerra sold the drug to students, but Acerra did allegedly sell the drug from his school office after hours and on weekends." The principal is in county prison on felony drug charges with bail set at $200,000.
