The two FIT students arrested last month for dealing cocaine say that they were just hooking friends up, not really dealing the drug. Seniors Mickenzie Dippenworth and Christine Scafa pleaded not guilty in court yesterday to drug-sale charges. They were arrested after allegedly selling coke to two undercover cops they met at the Chelsea nightclub Home near their FIT dorms. But a statement in court yesterday fro Scafa stated, "The only time that she supplied cocaine to anyone else is her friends. She did not turn a profit and only did it to 'hook up' her friends." Scafa claims that she began using cocaine as a freshman with DIppenworth. As for Dippenworth, her alibi was "that she made $80 once from selling drugs and that was her first time." Cops say the pair sold them a little under $1300 in cocaine. If convicted, they could face up to 25 years. The two young women—along with their accused supplier Raymond Alameda—will be back in court in March.

LOL, hardly look "FIT" that headline made me laugh.
Yeah, it made me laugh too, again.
I doubt they'll serve time and they really shouldn't since the drug laws are as dumb as the law that prohibits anyone from tying their giraffe to a lamppost in Atlanta (which I think is still on the books).
unFIT!
...were just hooking friends up, not really dealing the drug. So in theory the copy making all the buys was there friend?
Cage em!
Should Alameda be convicted if these ladies are not?
the "justice" system at work. white girls snitch everyone out and cry about how they never did it before, then get a misdemeanor possession conviction. meanwhile, a black 16 year old boy gets 20 years somewhere for pushing drugs to eat.
I guess you missed the part where it said "If convicted, they could face up to 25 years."
Nice try, though.
i guess you missed the "if convicted" and "could face" parts.
I just thought that my friends would appreciate $1300 worth of cocaine.
Get new friends.
The girls will get off.
They'll probably get some hard time, maybe a couple years, possibly enough time to taste the sweet side of the ladies' lockup.
HA HA! Stupidity runs deep
