Jason Conrad, of Duncan, is facing one count of trafficking fentanyl, four counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking fentanyl, cocaine, methamphetamine, and benzodiazepine and one count of weapons offences.

Liam MacRae and Erin Fineday, both from Richmond, are also facing charges of production of fentanyl, trafficking fentanyl and two counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking in fentanyl and methamphetamine.
