He mentioned that items recovered from the various bunks and joints include 214.79 kilograms of skunk, a strain of cannabis; 5.524 kilograms of Diazepam; 2.352 kilograms of Exol; 1.119 kilograms of Tramadol; 145.8 grams of Mogadon; 93.52 grams of Cocaine; 84.3 grams of Rohypnol; 10.9 grams of Methamphetamine; 3.17 grams of Ecstasy; and six bottles of Codeine syrup.
