“5-18-89 in presence of counsel substitute John Czajka, who requested the result of the lab test. Mr. Czajka was advised that the lab results were still pending.... Board finds that the contraband pills were clearly marked Valium, which is a controlled substance and would lead a reasonable person to believe they were Valium. The pills could pose a threat to the security of the institution, as' they could be consumed or trafficked throughout the institution. The board recommends that the CV be elevated to Rule #3 dangerous contraband.”
