Summary: State Police say they were working alongside the Department of Homeland Security Customs and Border Protection as well as the U.S. Postal Service and learned of a package containing 107 grams of MDMA sent to the Kappa Sigma house in the 600 block of Broadway Street. In an affidavit, a state trooper reported that an undercover agent conducted a controlled delivery of MDMA to the house about 12:45 p.m. Friday. After Staib and Silverman accepted it, agents searched their bedrooms, court papers say.
Allegedly, in Staib's bedroom there were 21.6 grams of marijuana, 68.7 grams of psilocybin mushrooms, 46 doses of LSD, .91 grams of DMT, 47.6 grams of opium and paraphernalia. Court papers allege that the MDMA was located in Silverman's room, where there were also .75 grams of powdered cocaine, 11 doses of LSD, .25 grams of marijuana and paraphernalia.
Aside from possession with intent to distribute MDMA, Staib and Silverman were each booked with possession of LSD, possession of marijuana and unlawful use or possession of drug paraphernalia.
Staib, of Baton Rouge, was also booked with possession of psilocybin mushrooms, possession of opiates and possession of DMT, records show. Silverman, of Pittsburgh, was also booked with possession of cocaine.
Magistrate Commissioner Juana Lombard on Saturday released Staib on his own recognizance in lieu of $33,500 bail. Magistrate Commissioner Harry Cantrell set a $23,000 bail for Silverman.

Can someone summarize the sentencing for these two gentlemen for getting a CD for 100+ grams of MDMA, in addition to all the drugs they were caught with. This information would be great to know.
The court notes are here, but I'm not sure how to read it. I hope they got off lightly with a decent lawyer.

Wait, where the fuck did they get the opium? Was it just incense? If not, I want some of that shit.
Edit: Nope, the court papers don't mention opium at all, just heroin. They could have purchased fauxpium incense and rolled some BTH in there. I didn't read through the details but that's my guess until somebody proves me wrong.
