Nearly two dozen teens have been arrested at high schools in southern California after undercover police officers posed as students for an entire semester to rat out drug-dealing on campus. Serina Ramirez, 18, and Erick De La Cruz, 19, were arrested at Perris High School last Thursday and 20 minors from that school and nearby Paloma High School in Menifee were also booked on drug-related charges. Three additional students weren't in school that day and remain at large.
