I always thought that Elmo was a little too ticklish.

a snippet from the end of the article..

--

Sweetin said agents believe Valle-Sierra bought methamphetamine in the Los Angeles area but it was probably made in a large lab outside the U.S., likely in Mexico. The California investigation was continuing, he said.

Of the 21 people named in a federal indictment in the case, 12 are suspected illegal immigrants, Eid said. Two suspects were still at large, he said.
