Huge Hard Drug Bust at Miranda Bridge by DTF; Two Men in Custody
Officers thoroughly searched the vehicle of the suspects.
This morning, the Humboldt County Drug Task Force served a search warrant on a vehicle traveling northbound on Hwy 101. Law enforcement pulled the suspects over near the Miranda Bridge on Maple Hills Road.
Sgt. Jesse Taylor told us, “We’ve been tracking occupants of the vehicle for quite some time…several weeks.” He said the operation found “seven pounds of meth and a couple of ounces of heroin.”
According to Taylor, they’ve taken two Eureka men into custody–Dan Silva and Matthew John Roberts.
Taylor promised a press release with more information later today.

I always hear good about Officer Jesse Taylor.
Me, too. Always open and warm with the community and he loves SoHum.
Well u hear wrong this officer is an asshole, damn near anyone will tell you that. He thinks he knows facts and yet there he is wrongly crucifying someone who was actual innocent… I’m so disappointed in Jesse Taylor. So this wasn’t just my case I’m talking about there’s been several different types of cases he disregards the supposed victim and then when he doesn’t get his way he threatens the supposed victim W jail time and charges of their own…
Any officer pulling that type and amount of dope off our streets can’t be all that bad. I thank them
~i’m in Central Humboldt, i can’t say what you who live in SoHum, know. And, i’m sorry to hear this. Is there one officer who we, any one of us, can say they are a good officer, standing on the land, in a Republic?
And now, it comes down to me and you. What are we going to do, besides wising up?
We need to join our State Assembly and to do so as quickly as possible.
Go to: http://www.TheAmericanStatesAssembly.net.
I encourage supporting lawful government, The United States of America, with might and main, with prayers and with pennies.
Even asshole cops look like they’re doing good when they’re trying to shine for their sheriff . Florida cops that were supposed to be good cops were robbing suspects for their cocaine then murdering them I bet you think that they were good cops too
He busted you and you don’t like him? There’s a real surprise
Ok well did u have 7 pounds of meth? Because although innocent until proven guilty, it’s clear to me that the meth is there…so in this case it appears pretty cut and dry… also it’s been my experience that the ones whining about charges and cases likely committed the offenses…just sayn..
Officer Jesse Taylor is a decent man.
He cares about your/his community.
Yay! that’s about five minutes of eureka’s supply off the streets!
It will cause a brief spike in price, nothing more. Seven pounds of Meth? A complete waste of taxpayer money. The Humboldt County Drug Task Force aint making a dent in shit. All they did was make a different dealer a little richer today. Tomorrow someone else will roll another 7 pounds into the county.
Guest (without a name) what is your idea? Come on.
Whelp. Geezo.
Should we be cutting them off at the pass ourselves? Raise the California REPUBLIC flag on the southern Mendo/HumCo border, and inspect all incoming vehicles?
~just sayin.
Yes! Absolutely…
I believe that we should also build a wall…a big, beautiful wall like the one that they are apparently building along the border of Colorado.
The wall would save a lot of problems. I can not go to Mexico without a passport, closed borders to Americans, so why do we allow people in without a passport, that is disparate treatment to the average law abiding American
wow have you ever been to the border?
what’s your point?
hahaha good one Buster 😀
Maybe it’s time for the locals to cleanse the gauntlet.
Yes. Catching dipshits bringing pounds of meth into Humboldt is a total waste of taxpayer money 🥴. This is about the dumbest thing I’ve read all month
Get past the popo hero bullshit propaganda and think for one minute. Will this bust make any difference at all in meth consumption? Absolutely not. Will this bust or 100 more like it do a damn thing to curb the meth problem? Absolutely not.
They catch two, and three more newbies make up the difference. Until the demand is reduced these busts don’t mean a damn thing – a waste of taxpayer money. Its easy to bust dumb ass criminals, much harder to solve the actual problem.
The war on drugs is a fucking joke and the Humboldt County Drug Task Force is a fucking joke. They used to preach that weed was evil shit that funded terrorism! Oh my! Now their paychecks are partially funded by weed money. Wait maybe they were right about funding terrorists.
You’re right.
A minor clarification … “Their paychecks are partially funded by weed money.”
instead …
Their paychecks are partially funded by $64 taxation on “legal” weed.
>>petty but necessary for the readers. The joke continues.
Avacados fund terrorists too. Whatcha gonna do about it?
So do tomatoes, onions and cilantro. Not to mention olive oil, corn tortillas, bannanas, crude oil, falcons (terrorists go freaky over em), most goods sold by Amazon and Walmart. You can say the whole guacamole support terrorists organizations in some way.
Hey guest, go drink some kool aid please. You are stupid and no one wants to hear your opinion.
Hey, who stole my name !?!
Will it make any difference in consumption? Nope . But seeing these dipshits get arrested and food taken outta their mouths is good enough for me.
At what expense to the taxpayers?
Like I said, a total waste of time and resources that accomplished nothing toward solving the real problem. Busts like this probably INCREASE the crime rate. Short term price spikes result in people having to steal more for the same fix. Popo be frontin at the taxpayers expense. The War on Drugs – nothing but a taxpayer ripoff.
I think it’s ridiculous that people see a cop doing their damn job that we pay the salary of and think they’re a good cop for it. I find it pretty sad that this is so common. Y’all see a 7 pound bust and say what a great cop. A corrupt and crooked cop will execute busts like this and next day plant the ounce or two they lifted on someone they don’t like. But because that 6 pounds 14 ounces came off the street they’re a good cop. Not saying that’s what happened here either. Have no idea who the cop is Don’t really care either. Anyone who joins that sick brotherhood is not my people
Your absolutely right they need to alter the educational institutions and teach some life skills instead of focusing purely on the dollar
Oh woops! The woman who was arrested was completely taken out of the story. Hmmm
Every bit counts.
Life in the fast lane 💨
Good work! Keep that poison and the assholes who push it out of Humboldt.
It would be cool if they actually did multiple years in prison for a crime like that.
🕯🌳Great job. 👍🏽
Same Dan Silva?
https://lostcoastoutpost.com/2013/apr/22/three-arrested-numerous-laptops-and-other-items/
Yes same guy
They need to stop all the dealing that’s going on at the Shopsmart parking lot in Redway! Day& night! It’s so gross…the fat guy with ponytail on the bike-he was on a poster a coupla years ago as a woman stalker. Maybe the bustees of today were his suppliers…one can only hope.
“Fat guy w/a pony tail on a bike”
You guys, crack me up. And this is easy to suggest from a keyboard, but, we should know how to do a citizen’s arrest, and do it! Then what? They get released? Is that what most in here think? We’re doomed!! Telephone Officer Jesse Taylor -or, go talk to him-
Everyone in Sohum knows EXACTLY who he is talking about. So as you sit in central Humboldt on your keyboard you are the clueless one. Law enforcement also knows who this ponytailed bike rider is also.
It always amazes me the totally off the wall comments put forth here when I know the real inside story on a lot of things reported. When you’ve lived here as long as I have you know a lot of people to resource for information.
If you missed it, Yeah,sure, i admitted, by implication, to being clueless on this. And just offered a suggestion. I don’t mean to make light of it. I really don’t.
Central HumCo said it was easy for Central HumCo to type on a laptop so there is no reason make such a nasty remark. And appreciated the humor in the description, not made fun of it.
Citizen’s arrest?
Arrest by citizen when absolutely positively required. Far too many capable citizens don’t stand and make arrest when called for. That used to be a crime.
A world not worth fighting for, is a long gone history lesson.
“A world not worth fighting for, is a long gone history lesson.”
~you don’t believe that, do you, Rod?
who doesnt
Yes, I do.
I’ve studied a lot of world history. The repeating fact is “the winners write the history books.”
What about the losers?
They gave up the fight and melted back into complacency.
Complacency towards the California Bureau of Cannabis Control and it’s associated fraud known as $64 is current events. Humans steal other humans present and future by expecting the losers’ submission to authority. It’s my way or the highway. Forget about tolerance and acceptance of the opposition.
In other words …
Kick ’em when they’re up,
Kick ’em when they’re down.
Kick ’em when they’re up,
Kick ’em all around.
Don Henley, last century.
People who aren’t sober are usually pretty ineffective… It’s a side effect that is part of the attraction.
Have you seen Jared Rand on the YouTube about the med beds and being able to travel any place on earth in under a half hour? From what he’s saying they have been using the med beds in the Middle East for military.

It’s done. Just do the energetic work…meditate, pray, yoga any which method you prefer. Let’s come together energetically, rise up the vibrations and usher in this new paradigm.
Trying to arrest someone without being armed? Sounds like a bad idea. And if you are armed then you’re going to get arrested yourself and charged with assualt with a weapon/possibly a deadly weapon. Welcome to California.
Biker bill n scary Larry rule the wastelands of deadway.
Please deport at your earliest convenience!
If only that were an option…
Names sound like some white boys to me. Thanks for the racist input though
🕯🌳Good 👁.
That doesn’t change the longed for option of deporting them. Too bad.
Four years ago I asked a hooker from Eureka why she came down to Garberville.
The heroin is better here, she said.
(Maybe it isn’t anymore, who knows.)
Are they going to release the names of the males in custody?
not until they give them a chance to rat out their friends.
These ass hats are protected under California law, along with there addict partners and thieves. We have seen these two here before on ms kemp’s page and will see them again. The people who actually get punished are the working class. Try going to work everyday paying 4.30 a gallon for gas and getting taxed up the ass with the worst tax increases in the nation. The easy life is just stealing stuff unpunished for your drug habit! Welcome to California.
100%
It’s in the article,
According to Taylor, they’ve taken two Eureka men into custody–Dan Silva and Matthew John Roberts
A Garberville hooker……scary!
Are they going to release the names of the males in custody?
Read the article again.
Yeah !! Meth sucks !
Meth is OK , the dosage can be problematic.
This is the truth !
Addiction is a disease and Meth is the Cure.
Have some compassion for the sick and ailing meth community.
We’re all part of the human race and Medicinal Meth helps those in disadvantaged and underserved communities to cope with the constant barrage of discrimination and profiling by those in positions of climate change & toxic micro aggression.
#microscopic toxic resilience
“…and profiling by those in positions of climate change & toxic micro aggression.”
~you can say that again, twice.
Love the snark oak!
After “weeks” of tracking them, the authorities obviously decided to bust the culprits* very close to where Kym lives, in order for her to not have to drive far to take photos, and to be certain the quintessential RHBB would cover the story (and the authorities get credit for their ‘success’)!
* – As Kym rightly reminds us, those busted are innocent until proven guilty. (I mean, heck. The guys could have been planning to go as ‘drug dealers’ for Halloween, and the contraband was merely props. Right?).
WoW! That’s like wOw! Ben Round.
(i say this w/out reading the article – as usze)
These gentlemen are guilty until they prove their innocence? Go back to China.
Meth and heroin are illegal.
I’m beginning to like you cannabis is legal. We need more heroines and less heroin.
You get the county and society you deserve. Allow illegal growing in the hills for decades, get more crime. Allow your neighbor to grow indoors on the same block, more crime. Smoke “legal” weed while kids sleep in the next room, degeneracy and crime. Feed the pockets of RAP “musicians” (street hustlers all) and gangsta clothing designers and “security store” owners and “gardening store” operators and dope-promoting website owners and especially traitorous, far left politicians, ever more crime. Crime and immorality is a magnet for more crime and immorality. You wanted it, hippycrites, you got it. Home invasions will be the least of your worries as your children and grandchildren stumble in your footsteps toward a dark, dead future. Thanks, libs.
yet the majority of local methheads we see in the news stem from local conservative family’s, just like these two. i had the opportunity to run into one on my property recently, he claimed to be mushroom picking, his mug shot made the news 3 times in 2019 and there is a road named after his family because they developed it from the old ranch. he was scoping my house/structures to further his hard drug habit. i am on red alert to say the least. but luckily i don’t own a dirt bike or a towable generator. as always the solution to this pollution is education and it will take 20 years if we start today.
Thank you, local observer.
Always the bigoted assumption. Must say that the absence of that “all uneducated locals are criminals” has been refreshing but it’s over now.
Ha! It’s not a left or right thing, your way off! I just work in town, but I overhear all the grow talk. Not all, but most those I’ve heard are usually Rednecks and they support Trump. Here’s a needle – to help pop that bubble your living in.
Hey Jhonny. How about the turkey conflict! Permanent cease fire between two warring countries because trump pulled out US military troops, saving American lives and saving millions a year in military budget. Oh well, if that was Obama, he would be awarded a Nobel peace prize. Trump? Spit on and called an orangutan.
Russia is grateful to Mr Trump. Everything on Putin’s wishlist, he gives them.
Shut [edit] spewing more propaganda. Trump is trying to make America great again but the Americans on one side have not shut the fuck up since a got into office. I think in order for America to be great again we all need to be American, not Irish American, Bulgarian American, Mexican American, just Americans. Screw this racial divide. Sick and tired of race this race that, documented or not documented. If you don’t have the proper paperwork in any other country you get deported or jailed.
Or can’t we just be humans. Why must we attach any label to ourselves and say how proud we are?
Great work, 7 pounds is a lot of meth, glad to see it flushed down the toilet. Well they probably can’t get rid of it that easy.
How much of this hard dope evidence gets “lost” while in police custody?
Didn’t you hear
These people have an excuse…
Drug addiction is a disease…
Give em an excuse…
It wasn’t their fault they robbed their own mother…they have a disease.
Society is constantly making excuses for these folks.
Some times a piece of shit is just a piece of shit.
Irredeemable!
🕯🌳”After weeks of tracking them” there going to use them snitch off the cooks that live right here in Humboldt.
Oh woops! The woman who was arrested was completely taken out of this story. Hmmm
