Former Humboldt Superior Court assistant operations manager Socorro Cervantes drunk in public, aggravated trespass arrest and embezzlement conviction. Today, HCSO was arrested again on burglary and other charges.



I have covered Socorro Cervantes since 2015 and covered her embezzlement case in detail. I will be adding court documents for her 2023 case. She failed to appear for arraignment in CR2301852 and a bench warrant was issued on 7/26/23.

HCSO Press Release:

On 4/23/2024 at about 9:30 a.m., Humboldt County Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to a residence on Shale Lane in Kneeland for a report of a robbery that had just occurred.

Deputies contacted the elderly victim and learned through their investigation that Socorro Cervantes had forced entry into his home. Cervantes then demanded money from the victim while threatening him. Cervantes stole a small amount of cash and other household items before fleeing the scene prior to deputy arrival.   

At about 10:00 a.m., the HCSO received a call regarding a female driving erratically in the 7800 block of Myrtle Avenue. The vehicle matched the description of the vehicle Cervantes had fled the Kneeland area in. When deputies arrived in the area, they learned through a witness statement that Cervantes had stolen tools from a residence in the area prior to fleeing again.

At about 10:30 a.m., a deputy in the area of Myrtle Avenue and Indianola Road observed Cervantes driving south on Myrtle Avenue. The deputy attempted to conduct a traffic enforcement stop on Cervantes, but she failed to yield. A short pursuit ensued, in which time Cervantes threw a glass bottle out the window at the pursuing deputy. Ultimately, Cervantes came to a stop in the parking lot of a business at the intersection of Myrtle Avenue and Freshwater Road. Cervantes complied with deputies and was taken into custody safely.     

Cervantes was booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility on charges of 460(A) P.C.; Burglary, 211 P.C.; Robbery, 368(D)(1) P.C.; Theft from Elder, 496 P.C.; Possession of Stolen Property, 2800.1 V.C.; Evading Peace Officer, 588 PC; Throwing Items in a Roadway to Cause Damage.
