Patrick William McTigue was arrested by HCSO yesterday afternoon on a Ramey warrant,booked at 2:15 p.m. and released on bail bond at 6:46 p.m. He is charged with a violation of PC641.3 (a), commercial bribery.
Bail was $75,000.
I have written various posts on a Patrick McTigue, who used to work at the Building and Planning Department for the County of Humboldt. His middle initial is William. He was on a leave of abscence. My initial post was about alleged kickbacks from growers trying to go through the permit process.
I have contacted HCSO for a booking photo. HCSO PIO Samantha Karges is going to release information later this morning.
I have also contacted various people at the County for comment, including John Ford.
First District Supervisor Rex Bohn is the first to respond from the County. He confirmed what I had heard, McTigue is out on medical leave. "Been a long investigation. Shaking down cannabis permit applicants for quicker permitting."
