San Diego drug suspect too young for Vegas vacation

May 7, 2008 | 12:17 pm
Times staff writer Tony Perry has a story today in the paper about a drug raid at San Diego State. One sentence leaped out at me:

"One suspect, Kenneth Ciaccio, 19, a member of the Theta Chi fraternity, sent out a mass text message early last month to 'faithful customers,' saying that he was traveling to Las Vegas and would not be able to make his normal cocaine sales, the DEA said."

According to the article, this particular student recently has also drawn in addition to law enforcement the attention of the school's public relations department, which, according to the article, praised him as a "model student."

As this case develops I wonder if we will find out if this allegedly cash-heavy student was able to find a casino in Vegas where he could gamble and clubs to drink at during his underage vacation. Any bets on what the answer to that one is likely to be?

Any frat boy that has enough connections to be in a huge drug ring can also probably get a decent fake ID. I started gambling in Vegas at age 19, and never had a fake ID. But it's easier for girls--wear slutty clothes and set the makeup gun to whore. The only place we ever got carded was Tropicana, because we were about 50 years younger than anyone else in the entire casino.

We went to O'Shea's a lot when we were underage, but once, when my husband was about 28, we went back to O'Shea's. They had apparently just gotten busted by the gaming commission that night, and my hubby got carded 4 times in 10 minutes.
