$100,000 bail and Daniel Anaya has to prove bail bond is from legit funds

The bail is for his 2019 arrest.

In 2009, Daniel Albert Anaya entered a no contest plea for an added count 4 which was a misdemeanor. He was originally charged with three felonies.

Press Release:

On April 10th, 2019, at approximately 8:30 p.m., Special Agents with the Humboldt County Drug Task Force, with the assistance of a narcotic detection K9 with the Humboldt County District Attorney’s Office, served a search warrant at a residence located in the 7200 block of David Avenue, Eureka.   During a multi-week investigation, agents identified Daniel Albert Anaya (age 54 from Sinoloa, Mexico) as a suspected heroin dealer.

When approaching the residence, agents located Anaya sitting in a parked vehicle near the driveway where he was detained without incident.  Inside Anaya’s vehicle agents located a false compartment within the dashboard.  Inside the compartment agents located approximately 3.25 pounds of heroin packaged for sales, 4 ounces of cocaine, and 1 ounce of methamphetamine.

When searching the residence, agents located over $95,000 in US currency.  This currency is believed to be profits of illegal narcotics sales and will be held pending asset forfeiture proceedings.

Anaya was subsequently placed under arrest and transported to the Humboldt County Correctional Facility.  Anaya was booked for possession and transportation of controlled substances and possession of an illegal false compartment.  Pursuant to PC 1275, a bail enhancement was granted which set Anaya’s bail at $100,000 and requires him to provide proof of legitimate bail funds.
