Rainier Beach High School drug and alcohol intervention specialist Robert Henry Smith, 59, was arrested Thursday night along with 37-year-old Adrian Demetrius Johnson, a U.S. Attorney’s Office spokeswoman said Friday in a statement.
A federal grand jury indicted the men Wednesday, accusing both of conspiring to distribute oxycodone. Smith is also charged with three counts of distribution of the drug; Johnson is charged with possession of oxycodone with intent to distribute. Read more.

This is a punch in the gut for the good people, faculty, students, parents and community members, working to get RBHS moving in the right direction. How very sad.
and you want my kid to go here with this new Seattle Schools allignment plan?
I’ve said it before and will say it again, Clean up RB before you force this on us.
To be able to send my kid to school so close to home would be a dream come true. I currently drive all over the city to get him to activities. How picture perfect would it be if we could walk down the street instead of driving to Queen Anne? But to trade for this? Come on guys?
“Law enforcement observed Smith leave Rainier Beach High School during school hours, and meet the (confidential source) approximately two blocks away from the high school to conduct the drug transaction,” Assistant U.S. Attorney Lisca Borlchewski said in court documents.
Quoted: this bastard could have been in front of MY HOUSE. Now i’m pissed.
Oxycodone should never cost this much. C0sts pennies to make.
This is why we need healthcare reform/ drug reform NOW.
If there was only a country that could produce opiates cheaply…
