A major drug ring in Eastern Idaho has been busted and several arrests were made.

Thursday night, two people were arrested near Aberdeen, charged with drug trafficking.

One arrest was made in Power County.

A multi-agency task force involving Bannock, Bonneville, Bingham, Caribou, Power, and Oneida counties all pooled their resources together to remove the major drug ring.

Deputies sezied $24,000 worth of drugs and $7,000 in cash.

Among the findings were 3.5 ounces of meth.

Alberto Fajardo, Goldie May Servin, and Jesus Moreno Pena Jr. are all behind bars with felony charges of delivery of a controlled substance.

This week Gov. Otter signed a bill requiring Idaho to sue the federal government if Congress passes health care reform. What's your response to this?

  • It's great to see Idaho taking the lead on this. Someone has to stand up to what's happening in Washington.
  • We can't afford to pay for education in Idaho, but we're going to spend tax dollars to sue the feds? Ridiculous.
  • Not sure.
