Authorities searched the home as well as a nearby storage unit owned by Rockel, where they claimed they found 14 guns, a "large amount" of cash, drug paraphernalia and packaging, and a stash of meth with a street value of $369,710.
Rockel was charged with drug possession with intent to distribute, persons not to possess firearms, and drug paraphernalia, the department wrote.
He remains in the Lehigh County jail in lieu of a $500,000 bond and will appear in court for his preliminary hearing on April 26, according to legal filings.
