Penn State frat cocaine case: ringleader arraigned, bail denied

Agostino Abbatiello, 24, allegedly led a cocaine-trafficking ring tied to two Penn State fraternities; he was arraigned and denied bail on multiple felony charges. Authorities say cocaine was packaged at the Delta Upsilon and Sigma Chi houses in 2023–2024, with 14 people charged—mostly current or former students. Abbatiello and 13 others face counts including possession with intent to deliver cocaine and conspiracy; co-defendant Thomas Robinson allegedly supplied the cocaine, and his father is charged with concealing evidence.
