These are 2 VERY different types of drugs. I am more than curious as to where these naughty children got the hydromorphine (Dilaudid, Oxycodon) from. Hydromorphines are STRONG pharmaceutical pain killers, and are not something concocted in a basement or grown in a backyard. Was it from drugstore breakins, theft from elders on pain medication, or importation from a larger city? Marijuana (for the most part) is not such a big deal, but these powerful pharmaceutical narcotics certainly ARE! Its children like this that wreck the community for everyone else.
