<p>I read something about this on AOL, apparently they seized 20 crates of videotapes, a camera, a computer, and some other stuff from a fraternity. </p>
<p>They also busted someone for drug possesion, but that was supposedly “unrelated” does anyone know what is going on?</p>
<p>
A sexually explicit videotape created by an Alpha Delta fraternity member from the Class of 2003 was the premise behind a Thursday morning police search of the organization’s physical plant, according to several sources close to Alpha Delta fraternity and other persons in the Dartmouth Greek system.</p>
<p>Fourteen police officers from the Hanover Police Department entered AD at 10:45 a.m. on Thursday and searched the organization’s physical plant for over five hours. The fraternity had received no prior notification of the search and at least one member of Safety and Security was on hand throughout the search, according to Hanover Police Chief Nicholas Giaccone.</p>
<p>Giaccone would neither confirm nor deny whether the warrant involved a sexually related tape because the warrant and court affidavit have been sealed for the duration of the investigation.</p>
<p>The warrant was obtained as part of an investigation that was launched in October of 2004. </p>
<p>“They were looking for a piece of evidence, they didn’t find that evidence, I am convinced they didn’t find that evidence because that evidence never existed,” said John Engelman '68, the fraternity’s alumni advisor and president of the fraternity’s alumni corporation. </p>
<p>Engelman would not say whether the police were looking for a videotape.</p>
<p>“I don’t know what the charge against individuals in AD might be if they found this tape,” Engelman said. He said he does not think there will be any charges against the organization or its members based on the allegations contained in the search warrant.</p>
