While en route to the scene, deputies received information that the stolen vehicle had left the residence and was now parked in the Kmart parking lot in McKinleyville.

Deputies located this vehicle near the intersection of Central Ave. and School Road, and conducted a second felony traffic stop.

More of Humboldt’s finest making the news. Thank you to the law enforcement folks. These three are but a small part of what officers have to deal with every day, every night.

This chick is a marriage counselor, and the Executive Director of Evolve Youth Services: http://www.evolveyouthservices.org/ourteam/

So that’s how marriage counselors deal with listening to people blame each other all day.

It would be good to get to the bottom of this: Is Amber Rose Bedell the same person as Amber Morton Bedell? LoCO says so in their article. Googling tells me Amber Rose is AKA Amber Morton. And the picture of Amber Morton Bedell (Google Images) looks kind of like the suspect–though younger for sure.
If not… that’s a terrible mistake and someone owes Ms. Morton Bedell something for besmirching her name.

That is the counselor unfortunately. She was amazing with my son. Sad to see what drugs do.

This is so hard to see.
She was a good therapist. It’s just so sad that bad choices led to addiction, which then led to what was clearly a swift downward spiral. I feel a lot of compassion not only for her poor children, but for all of the great kids and parents who were getting help through Evolve Youth Services, in a county where Child Welfare Services are so broken, and such nonprofit programs are so critical to fill the void

Bedell’s MFT license was revoked by the Board of Behavioral Sciences in April 2018. I’m really surprised that the board of EYS hasn’t yet taken action to remove her name from their website. as of 8:45 am on June 15th 2018, she is still listed as the “Executive Director, Licensed Marriage Family Therapist”

Surely their articles of organization has some sort of provision. Unfortunately, such a lack of action on their part further clouds the legitimacy of this much-needed nonprofit.
Shame on you, “Dr.” Corey Lewis!!

UNFRIGGIN’ REAL !! Simpson and Oliver spent about 2 1/2 hours in jail and Bedell spent about 5. I’m surprised our LE officers just don’t give up arresting people and have them sign a post-it-note to promise to appear. They won’t show up in court until they get arrested again and it will start all over. Stupid laws!

I’m sure she was just trying to help them out. Just like HACHR. So what if she is a junky too. She has every right to be. I mean the HACHR management is too! Does she work for a non profit too? These non profits are lucky people. Do your drugs to your hearts content and still make a dime off the tax payers. Gotta love it. I’m seriously looking into being a junky. It pays well.

I get what you are saying but you missed the point with what I am saying. Doesn’t matter. It appears this isn’t the same one who works for Youth Service Bureau. Pretty serious mistake. I apologize for my snarky comment about this real person. My bad.
