[UPDATE 5:30 p.m.] New Deputy Duo’s in Town; Wanted Folks Beware!
Another member of Southern Humboldt’s Most wanted was picked up in Alderpoint today, confirmed Sgt. Jesse Taylor of the Humboldt County Sheriff’s office. A new deputy duo that is focusing on capturing individuals wanted for warrants arrested Chase Ganey.
Ganey, who was wanted for multiple warrants, made an attempt to escape the two officers.
“He ended up pulling down a dead end driveway and surrendered without incident,” Taylor said. He said, the wanted man had a substance on him that is suspected meth.
Taylor said the new deputy duo was responsible last week for the arrest of Jason East and Rose Cooper both of whom were or had been on the most wanted list.
Another man with warrants, Michael Minnehan, was also picked up in Alderpoint by the two deputies today.
UPDATE 5:30 p.m.: Press release from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office:
On 04-27-2016, at approximately 2:40 p.m., Sheriff Deputies with the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office conducted surveillance on a residence in the 400 block of Par Avenue, Redway. Deputies were attempting to locate Jason Lloyd East (age 44) who was recently featured on the Southern Humboldt’s Most Wanted Poster. East was wanted for felony warrants that included charges of kidnapping and domestic violence.
Deputies located East driving a vehicle on Redway Drive near Moss Avenue. East briefly attempted to elude Deputies but surrendered without incident. East was placed under arrest for his outstanding felony warrants. The passenger in East’s vehicle, Rose Marie Cooper (age 34), who was previously featured on the Southern Humboldt’s Most Wanted Poster, was also placed under arrest for outstanding narcotics warrants.
On 05-04-2016, at approximately 12:00 p.m., Sheriff’s Deputies were in the Alderpoint and Rancho Sequoia areas following up on tips regarding outstanding wanted poster fugitive, Chase Lee Ganey (age 24). An anonymous tip led Deputies to a residence in the 100 block of 6th Street, Alderpoint. Deputies were able to locate Ganey and took him into custody without incident. Deputies searched Ganey incident to his arrest and located approximately 2 grams of suspected methamphetamine on his person. Another Alderpoint resident, Michael Douglas Minnehan (age 54), was also located and placed under arrest for misdemeanor warrants.
Thanks in large part to Measure Z funds, staffing of the Sheriff’s Office Garberville Station has increased significantly. Sheriff’s Deputies will continue to place a high priority on community led tips and wanted fugitives will be pursued.

Caught with a substance thought to be meth… just look at that kisser! Guaranteed meth!
That’s great! I kinda feel like people, and le are taking back this county. Now if california repeals prop. 47, we’ll be in good shape.
Thank you Sharon. A lot of good people thought prop 47 was a good idea. A lot of good people have changed their minds
How does prop 47 relate to these people or their arrests?
Because they get arrested and are almost immediately back on the streets ripping people off……again, again and again. Prop 47 has created a revolving door for these losers and they know it, there is no punitive incentive to change their ways.
Score one for the good guys!!
Good to hear that the scumbags aren’t safe hiding out in Alderpoint.
Former student of mine. Sad.
Chase Ganey and his brothers used to come to our house. They were among the most respectful and polite of my son’s friends. They offered to do dishes, take out trash, etc. I have no illusions about who they are today, but I agree with you, it’s sad.
Mine too. So sad. He was a nice polite kid.
OMG miss rose cooper,finally caught.its about time.maybe they’ll keep her this time.ya right
Ah..the East infection finally got put into remission
Beat up from the feet up ,tore up from the floor up ,need a check up from the neck up .rose cooper
Rhymes all the times
Faces of meth
Humboldt keep up the cleaning efforts, we are slowly taking back the communities, towns, and County!!
See a wanted individual drop the dime so they will do the time.
Ganey went down a dead end street according to article above, dead end is right. And spider woman, ouch, who would hire her to represent their business??
Wait, are they new deputies, or a new duo of seasoned deputies.
Doesn’t matter. They seem to be doing the job.
Ship them off to a female camp already, have them make gravel from boulders, or make license plates. This earth and it’s inhabitants don’t need these scumbags mixed into the general population!
