NEARLY 150 DRUG DEALERS IN HIGH SCHOOLS ARRESTED
Undercover Los Angeles police officers arrested more than 140 drug dealers
at high schools in 2001 through the LAPD's School Buy program, department
officials said.
Officers enroll in schools through the program, which was established in
1974. They then make drug purchases on and around their campuses. Ninety
people were arrested at the end of the spring semester; police arrested 58
others in December.
