13 miembros de fraternidades de Penn State arrestados en caso federal de cocaína y MD5

Las autoridades federales arrestaron a 13 miembros de las fraternidades Sigma Chi y Delta Upsilon de la Universidad Estatal de Pensilvania el 25 de agosto, acusándolos de distribuir cocaína y MD5 a gran escala, informó el New York Post. En documentos presentados por la Fiscalía General de Pensilvania se enumeraron catorce personas, incluidos estudiantes y un padre, acusados de delitos graves y menores vinculados a la red de cocaína, según CBS News. The Guardian también indicó que los cargos abarcaban desde tráfico de drogas hasta manipulación de pruebas. CBS News informó que el abogado de Pittsburgh Paul Robinson fue acusado de manipular una caja fuerte que, según los fiscales, contenía cocaína y efectivo.

Posteriormente, el New York Post citó a Robinson diciendo que desconocía el contenido de la caja mientras limpiaba la habitación de su hijo en la fraternidad. El mismo medio reveló que el grupo utilizó Snapchat y aplicaciones de pago para organizar y pagar las compras de cocaína. La BBC señaló que un estudiante de 24 años coordinó la operación de distribución, involucrando a miembros de las fraternidades y a sus iniciados. El New York Post añadió que el abogado y su hijo, estudiante de Delta Upsilon, fueron acusados en relación con el caso.
