Ivy League student caught with $150k of heroin
Now that's what I call a party...
| quote: | | An Ivy League student and university magazine editor has been arrested after being caught with $150,000 worth of heroin stashed in a tupperware container. Police were called to a hotel parking lot in Ithaca, New York, after a nearby resident reported seeing the student acting strangely. Keri Blakinger, a 26-year-old Cornell University senior, was found holding a clear plastic container containing heroin with a street value of $150,000. "The preliminary weight of the heroin indicates it may be the second largest seizure of the drug by the Ithaca Police Department since September of 2008," Deputy Ithaca Police Chief John Barber told the Ithaca Journal. The student was reportedly under the influence of drugs when she was arrested. "She appeared uncomfortable, uneasy, having a hard time standing still and of an altered state of mind," an onlooker told police. |
