That's quite a haul. Interesting that this hasn't been reported on LOCO or RHBB. Looks like you got another scoop!
ReplyDeleteThank you Anonymous. I never rely on press releases to report. While some of this information can be verified with jail reports and court records, all of us locally rely on tips and contacts in the local community.
DeleteOld fashioned reporting always gets the scoop! I am very grateful for my readers and for all of you taking the time to read the detailed posts and offer thoughtful, pertinent feedback.
Another loser comes out of the brush to get nabbed! Drink the koolaid you idiots. Soylent green is just down the road.
ReplyDeleteThe amounts of seized drugs seems too much for a personal stash!
ReplyDeleteThanks to the HCSO Deputies for apprehending this convicted felon with a firearm plus ammunition, and those large amounts of illegal drugs/ more than for just personal use.
What happened to his sidekick?
Now let's see if the Humboldt County Superior Court will impose a sentence that will keep this arrested person/ previously convicted felon off of the public streets for quite sometime!
