Penn State Cocaine Ring: Ringleader Fights Bail as 14-Defendant Case Moves Forward
The Penn State cocaine-trafficking case advances as Agostino Abbatiello, a 24-year-old accused ringleader, fights to be released on bail even as prosecutors seek to consolidate charges against 14 defendants tied to frat-linked drug deals supplying cocaine to Penn State students; Abbatiello is the only defendant reportedly denied bail, and the hearing will proceed with co-defendants and Abbatiello’s father as the cases are unified.
