Nearby, they recovered a sealed bag crammed with 79 strips of the opioid buprenorphine, 0.94 grams of methamphetamine and the USB drive that was found to contain pornography, prosecutors said.

Is $75k the prison value here or something? Seems like an incredibly random value for such a small amount.

A crown prosecutor told the court the woman’s role in the plot was to obtain the drugs for Knudson to sell inside the prison, where a single strip of buprenorphine can fetch close to $1,000.

As said in the article, yes. Prison prices.
