A Purdue University professor has been arrested after allegedly dealing meth and offering money to women in exchange for sex.
Sergey Macheret, 65, an aeronautics professor was arrested and charged on Wednesday after a lengthy investigation into reports of a "suspicious" older man approaching women. Macheret was charged with dealing meth, possession of meth and making an unlawful proposition — which Indiana law is defined as offering to pay someone for sexual intercourse or acts.
Purdue University said in a statement that the award-winning academic and author would be placed on administrative leave.
“The university will cooperate fully with the investigation,” the school said. “The employee has been placed on leave pending further updates and legal proceedings and is barred from campus. The School of Aeronautics and Astronautics is working to ensure that undergraduate and graduate student needs are met regarding lectures and labs.”
