Woman Apparently Under the Influence Crashes Vehicle Through PG&E Security Gate, Resists Deputy, and Flees by Swimming, Says Sheriff’s Office

This is a press release from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office. The information has not been proven in a court of law and any individuals described should be presumed innocent until proven guilty:

Katherine Zacevich

On 08-05-17, at approximately 1:30 pm, Humboldt County Sheriff Deputies responded to the PG&E plant in King Salmon for a report of a female who had crashed her vehicle through a security gate. Upon the first deputy’s arrival, he contacted 24 year old Katherine Zacevich who was walking away from her vehicle. Zacevich was only wearing pants and appeared to be under the influence of a controlled substance.

Zacevich ignored all of the deputy’s requests and attempted to leave the area. The deputy attempted to detain Zacevich when she began to actively resist by striking and attempting to kick the deputy. Zacevich fled the area towards the slough. Additional deputies and officers from the California Highway Patrol and Fortuna Police Department arrived on scene to assist.

Zacevich was located swimming in the slough, just east of the power plant. She came out of the slough and continued to actively resist deputies attempt to detain her. She was eventually placed into custody and transported to a local hospital for evaluation and treatment.

Upon her release from the hospital she will be booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility for Battery on a Peace Officer and Vandalism. The deputy’s injuries were minimal in this incident.

Anyone with information for the Sheriff’s Office regarding this case or related criminal activity is encouraged to call the Sheriff’s Office at 707-445-7251 or the Sheriff’s Office Tip line at 707-268-2539

The prescription drugs, taken as directed, are the problem in many cases.

There is no such thing as a ‘chemical imbalance’ in the brain until psych meds have their way with you.

Suggests that the Sheriff’s Office suspect there’s more to this story than just a weekend bender.

She’s 24 and has a lengthy record that’s easily searched online.
Perhaps bringing those facts to light in the context of this incident might stimulate her taking a look at the past six years of mistakes.

If anyone has seen Deadwood, and what Trixie did topless-
this is disturbing as rods have been missing and can’t be removed until 299 is completed.

If marijuana growers are able to field a nuclear weapon, they will insist on complete environmental destruction using that weapon as ransom.

Trump should send in the expeditionary force, secure the fuel ponds, branch out and cut every weed plant for 600 miles.

This may be a probing, recon unit for The Marijuana Caliphate, timing this with Reggae On The River for maximum media effect, and use their partisans as cover.

This is very serious, as desperate marijuana growers may be attempting another 9/11 and everyone knows marijuana played a hand in the first one.

The Triangle needs immediate military intervention to stop The Marijuana Caliphate from manifesting it’s dreams.

Good point. Smoke screen of reggae on the river. They (government) assume that there is no way one marijuana user would miss such an event like reggae on the river. What better time to carry out such a mission to gain intel on the nuke plant.

Not only military, but we need evangelicals setting up gospel tents. Once the effects of the devils weed wears off, they will need guidance back into reality. I would only trust the evangelicals to be able to handle such a task. Lots of praying, singing and dancing. They will also need to consume holy water to help rid the devil. Everyone in the triangle is under the spell of the devil’s weed. Just the slightest smell will penetrate your soil and take over. You want even notice it. The growers must be eradicated. The users, if not too far lost, must be purged. This is only the beginning.

LSD might be his problem. Wingnut for sure. Too far out to come back. Probably harasses people at the Honeydew store. Most likely hits people up for beer. He grows shwag that he can’t sell, that why he hates other growers. He’s claims to be a leader not follower, but what does he know, he’s lost!

Hold up. If drugs are what caused 9/11, then why are you advocating doing more drugs? Your logic is flawed.

How bout everybody step off the weed is desyroying the world ladder and encourage the sherriffs office to bust all the coke heads and the meth mouths. Just concentrate on weed cuz busting it brings in cash flow, but ignore the crazed tweakerz that rob and assault and kill the weed growers and their families and such. Stellar tactics right there.

Good Idea, but I think you answered why it isn’t happening. Wait until you try for years and find you will get no response. We need to find a way that the hard drug arrests would be profitable to the sheriffs department! The only hope is that they can arrests these criminals during their assaults, robberies, break ins, and other collateral damage they are causing. Because we know it won’t happen any other way. Keep your eyes open.

A woman on meth goes nuts, and you thank a disturbed person who chimes in with ‘pot growers will use nuclear weapons’, and ‘pot growers were in on 9/11’.
Sickening and deluded.

CHUMP and his supporters prove over and over that there will always be more scared, stupid people than smart. That’s how Hair Hitler The Flaming Orange Satan trump got elected! These idiots think any news they don’t agree with is FAKE. Perfect citizens of a Fascist dummy state. CHUMP can be their trump-like SNOWFLAKE leader.

Yes, and didn’t term “Snowflake” concern us as well? Honestly, I would much rather read CHUMPS comments than these fueled, driven, and pointed attacks. As well, I am surprised that Kym doesn’t pick up on and edit these posts.

Actually Kym, please don’t ban CHUMP. I occasionally enjoy reading some of his stuff and agree with some viewpoints. He comes across as being anti drug, environmental destruction, etc. If it doesn’t interest me I and starts to ramble I just skip on by. However I am offended by Sparkelmahn and the racist, pro-Nazi, etc viewpoints

“occasionally”

If only the troll posts were occasional. The flood of nonsense and naive responses pollute the comments section here, and turns off folks from participating. It’s drivel; nothing constructive nor humorous.

That crap has amped up over the past few weeks.
Not coincidently, a lot of other ugly commenting is on the increase here.
Direct correlation. Ban the troll and reduce the bad vibes overall.

I generally respect Ms.Kemp’s guidelines and have a hard time understanding why others have such an issue with respecting boundaries.
I’m not even going to speculate why some take issue with respecting others, I’m an adult, have empathy for others, and generally live above doing those type of things.

Ms.Kemp does a fantastic job with this project and shares it for everyone.

She is a true positive spirit, has honor, values, and is trying to teach things to many of you which means to listen and not speak.

Thank you again Ms.Kemp

Kym, first and foremost, I love what you do here and would support it financially if there were a paypal donation button somewhere on the site.

Regarding troll, after you gave them recognition with an article directed to them, they were legitimized, emboldened and encouraged.
That person has admitted at least twice, they aren’t ‘serious’ about the anti-weed nonsense, that they consider it “satire”.
It’s not ‘satire’. It is trolling. Trolling is always designed to disrupt sane, constructive dialogue in comments sections.
It’s as old as Usenet, vis a vis online dialogue.

Now they’ve ‘followers’ and imitators, pushing the same nonsense but with more invective and hate. Though I don’t have any stats, my sense is the level of heated, confrontational discourse has subsequently risen here in the comments sections, following that article directed at the troll.

Encouraging trolls is never a good idea for a blog writer or blog commentor. They’re like stray cats; feed ’em, they keep coming back and bring more cats with them.
They muddy the waters of genuine discourse, dragging commentors into the quicksand of nonsense; some commentors take that nonsense to be serious and respond accordingly.

That person adds nothing to this blog and comments sections; nothing good, at least. Recognizing them, responding to them, legitimizes them in their own feeble mind.

Ban and see if the level of discourse improves, if the bad vibes settle down. I’d literally wager that it will improve.
My sense, most of your committed readers, no matter which side of the current cannabis issue they take, would prefer not to read that nonsense nor any of the responses nor imitators and fans.

Your blog, of course; your choice, of course. I’m just pointing out responsibility as I see it, relative to the decline in positive content in the comments sections. YMMV.

Aside from that, here’s a piece that maybe of interest:

This is a good example of what not to do. Life on the North Coast is a desperate and depressing affair, sometimes.

I sincerely hope something good happens to this woman, like rehab, sobriety, and a safer occupation.

We think there was another person with her. We saw a woman hurriedly walking south on the shoulder of the northbound lane, obviously under the influence looking over her shoulder like someone was after her. We drove into King Salmon and saw the sheriff’s vehicle as we were leaving. The woman we saw was talking to someone in a black full sized SUV near Herrick Rd on our way back.
