All four have been charged with possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking. Montana Primeau and Janie Farrow have also been charged with possession of the proceeds of crime over $5,000. On top of that, Jordan McDonald and Evan Halkett have been charged with possession of a firearm and storing a firearm and ammunition in a careless manner.
