Methamphetamine: Back to School

Now, college chemistry students are manufacturing Meth.

A San Diego State University chemistry student was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of manufacturing methamphetamine and other illicit narcotics on campus.

Federal agents took Matthew Finley, 26, into custody at his Ocean Beach home, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration reported.

A search of the Santa Monica Avenue residence turned up methamphetamine, the potent analgesic fentanyl and several marijuana plants, DEA officials said.

Investigators also sealed off the building that houses SDSU’s Chemical Sciences Laboratory and searched a work area assigned to Finley, a graduate student pursuing a master’s degree, according to the DEA.

There, they allegedly found more methamphetamine and fentanyl, as well as a quantity of the psychoactive drug MDMA, commonly known as ecstasy.

Hey DEA how about raiding the labs in Mexico.
