I would like to know what happened to the victims of Operation Pipe Dreams. Tommy Chong seems to be the only one I can find. Is there any way to find out what happened with their court cases (guilty plea, found guilty, dropped, whatever, etc.) and what sentences they received (if any?) I have posted here because perhaps one of you might be able to help me find this information. Thanks,
- Johnny
