Staff vigilance and security checks were once again been credited with discovering contraband, including cannabis, found last week at the Joyceville Institution and believed to have been delivered by drone.
While carrying out checks on Oct. 14, staff at the federal, multi-level security facility in Kingston, Ont., found a package containing 205 grams of tobacco, 215 grams of cannabis, 132 grams of shatter (marijuana concentrate), 110 grams of hashish and an unidentified number of cellphones and related accessories.
Unauthorized items are no stranger to correctional institutions across the country, with cannabis and tobacco being a common pairing.
Just this spring, again at Joyceville Institution, staff there seized items that included about 20 grams of tobacco and 29 grams of shatter.
In April 2020, just over 201 grams of cannabis and just under 200 grams of tobacco with an institutional value of $41,000 was found.
