YIKES
Quite the outdoorsie kinda guy eh?
LMAO!!!! 😂👍 Agreed! Other than the drugs, it’s just another day.
I always wonder why these people have all these guns, then don’t use them. We do not want them to, but it is amazing how many reports we see with drugs and guns, and the guns are not used. Is it part of their plan to get as much jail time as they can? The drugs are bad enough, why cause yourself more hassle than you need to? Look at the arsenal this guy has. Everyone who sold him a gun knows he is a felon. Or he stole them. Perhaps if the cops had a turn in your guns for needles? Now that would be something, guns for needles. Or, they could turn in their guns and get one free pass, if they are caught with drugs, so they don’t get arrested next time.
Yes he stole them I’m sure. These guys go straight for your bedroom because that’s where the guns and money usually are. Heavily armed tweakers- greeeeat. It’s surprising you are such a big second amendment guy when you can realize that this is fucking crazy, that these kind of people are armed like that. Not the kind of world I want to live in. But hey at least you have your rights to take on a tyrannical government someday in the future. Glad for that.
Good riddance keep him locked up til he’s clean then get him into rehab or jail, his choice!!!
Likely… out by lunch.
Gotcha !!!
One man crime wave. Good job, HCSO.
More degenerate thieving scum!
Great job america!
No wonder we are being out competed by forieghners.
That free needle handing out group needs to have
somebody handing out info. on how hard drugs ruin lives,
by the time they are his age it’s probably ly too late.
How many times has his mugshot been in the paper?
Good job Leo’s.
here he is 2015 doing the same thing. do you know when the needle program started?

🕯🌳So I guess the chiansaws are for cutting up the bodies?
Why am I hearing the commercial, “J.G. Wentworth, when you need cash now”(the settlement commercial). Sorry.
Can one ever have too many guns? According to the cops: YES but according to the NRA: no!
This guy is a career criminal. He has been arrested over and over again. He has been on this site at least a half dozen times. We need to change many of our laws that are currently on the books! Do we wait until he kills someone? Obviously probation is not working for this felon!
Until we step up and deal with all these junkies on hard drugs, we are just going to continue to be robbed and assaulted by them. How many chances should a criminal like this guy get?
Make him pay the price for his actions. Make him work to pay back his victims. Catch and release isn’t working!
While that is quite a bit of firepower, I always find it interesting when the police report states how many rounds of ammunition were also found. They make it sound huge…100 rounds ammunition! Big deal, that’s two boxes. How many gun owners don’t have 100 rounds on hand or even 1000 if you like to save money and buy it by the case.
Punk thief!!! Those are nice saws, 372xp, maybe a 395xp. If it’s a 575 he can keep it haha. I’m more of a Stihl guy although my husqvarna 372xp might be my favorite saw of all time. He prolly stole em from somebody that actually needs them too. Tweekers suck!!!
IT really makes it bad for law abiding firearm owners. but if this guy stole these weapons. what was the guy doin with them that he stole them from? i will be willing to bet there are more guns in norcal than anybody would think, because of the mind set of people like this individual.
