The house itself did not hold any growing plants. However, thousands of plants grew in the front yard. As a result, 4,834 plants met their end.
The arrestees are –
- 58-year-old Yi Lin of Marlton, New Jersey;
- 57-year-old Ni Kong of New York, New York;
- 51-year-old Ni Shao of Seattle, Washington.
