5 Pounds of Suspected Heroin, Over $5,000 Seized During Search in Arcata Yesterday
This is a press release from the Humboldt County Drug Task Force. The information has not been proven in a court of law and any individuals described should be presumed innocent until proven guilty:
Jack Ryan Skundrich
On July 29th, 2020, special agents with the Humboldt County Drug Task Force (HCDTF), with the assistance of the Arcata Police Department, served a search warrant at a residence located in the 500 block of Warren Creek Road, Arcata.
During their ongoing investigation, agents identified Jack Ryan Skundrich (age 34) as a suspected narcotics trafficker distributing heroin throughout Humboldt County. Agents were familiar with Skundrich from previous investigations. In January 2019, agents arrested Skundrich for transporting heroin with a juvenile. Skundrich was charged with felony child endangerment, to which he failed to appear in court, and a felony warrant was issued. Again, in January 2019, agents served a search warrant at Skundrich’s residence and seized approximately 6 pounds of suspected heroin. Skundrich’s acquaintance was arrested during this investigation.
Juan Sabino Alvarez
At approximately 4:45 p.m., agents arrived at the residence and detained Skundrich, along with his acquaintance, Juan Sabino Alvarez (age 36 from Sinaloa, Mexico). During a search of the residence and associated vehicles, agents located approximately 5 pounds of suspected heroin packaged for sales. Agents also located over $5,000 in U.S currency that is believed to be profits from illegal narcotics sales. This currency was seized and will be held pending asset forfeiture proceedings.
Skundrich and Alvarez were subsequently placed under arrest for possession and transportation of controlled substances. Skundrich was also charged for operating / maintaining a drug house and a felony warrant for child endangerment. Both subjects were booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility.
Anyone with information related to this investigation or other narcotics related crimes are encouraged to call the Humboldt County Drug Task Force at 707-267-9976 or the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office Tip Line at 707-268-2539.

Gosh! If only we didn’t have Sanctuary, or we could deport both of them!
No, thanks to people like you they’ll be booked and released. Our community thanks you Mr. Kirk.
We could deport scumrich except nobody else wants him.
Why isn’t he in the slammer after the previous busts? Protecting the health of a serial offender is not more important than protecting the citizenry at large!
Juan Sabino Alvarez (age 36 from Sinaloa, Mexico) and a minor?
This can’t be.
The left has told us that this doesn’t happen it’s just a figment of Trumps racism.
How many busts is that this month in Humboldt.
I can only imagine how many are in SF, LA, Sac. Oakland we don’t hear of cause you know….defund the cops, Get rid of the DEA, ATF and above all ICE.
He will be out on the street before tomorrow.
You got one thing right. Trump IS a racist. And a White supremist.
You watch to much CNN….They call Trump a racist because it’s the only thing keeping the station from going down the tubes.

Your link says I must sign up to read the article, so I ask you this:
1. What is the viewership of Fox, which seems to be the only mainstream conservative channel vs. total viewership of the mainstream liberal channels? This, to me, is a more realistic comparison.
2. I don’t really understand your point; what difference does it make who has the highest viewership? If conservatives have fewer choices (primarily, or only Fox?) it would make sense why Fox beats out each of the multitude of liberal channels. Nothing else can be inferred or concluded that I can see.
So you agree that most msm’s are biased?
What? Trump is racist. You arguing otherwise just got the biggest chuckle out of me. Besides , viewership doesn’t decide if someone is racist or not. FOX’s high viewership is indicative of a large ignorant faction in this country.
Show us proof. No one liners or platitudes——–proof.
Skundren was the one who had a minor with him when transporting drugs, not Alvarez.
Talking about whites committing crimes doesn’t fit some viewer’s narratives.
It’s no secret Hot Coffee is a very strong proponent of Trump.
It’s as clear as black and brown.
Hot Coffee’s statement shows the pure unabashed ignoring of the white half of this story.
Heroin is death
Actually it isn’t.
🕯🌳Travel, Travel, Travel. 🚀🛸
Every junkie is like the setting sun…
It appears by these busts that Humboldt has a BIG problem that it isn’t dealing with.
sending their best?
bad hombre
So am I reading this right? …good ol Jack Ryan gets popped in 2019 – pulls a no show to his court date (pretty serious charges I think)…hmmmmm wonder where he could be??? A year and 1/2 later they figure out that Jack’s at home doing the same thing he was doing back in January 2019! Meanwhile we’ve got 15-20 expensive trucks and agents galore roaming the hillsides getting rid of .0001% of something that is “legal”…ohhhhh I get it now! What a county!
It’s all about the money. Mexican cartel and most other organized crime syndicates found out decades ago it was not a good idea to keep their cash with their product.
Nobody cares ..this is just a tweaker chat….
MEANWHILE, The SoHum drug dealers are at their posts day& nite in Redway… Bicycle,ponytail, backpack& all…ShopSmart, Redway Liquors& the other businesses need to make a concerted effort to get the cops to clean up our little burg! Enough!
Put them in a cell with their 6 pounds of SHIT and let them do their own sentencing !
by the looks of his picture, Scumrich looks bewildered by the situation.
He’s higher than a kite and can’t focus.
🕯🌳Has anyone noticed that most junkies in Humboldt aren’t Hispanics?😥🌍
Have you noticed most transporters are? It’s a supply and demand issue. You have Americans, the majority who are white, wanting heroin, you have Mexicans who have heroin. It’s as simple as that
What happened Willie, did you give up on the fantasy that the majority of heroin comes from white trash meth labs out in the hills ? Now you feel it necessary to switch to a new narrative to denigrate whites by pointing out that the majority of junkies in Humboldt are white? The majority of people in Humboldt are white so that should be obvious. Are you one of those self hating, liberal whites who feels virtuous when you excoriate white people?
Nope, just their suppliers are Hispanic. Do you know what would really help with white Junkies? End all government assistance to anyone who cant pass a drug test… There’s a reason why America did not have such a bad drug epidemic even when all drugs were legal and could be purchased at the corner grocery store.
Indeed. There was no government assistance to anyone at that time. Hence the top 20% weren’t stolen from to pay 90% of the federal tax bill.
Right? Time to being back public hanging.
Attn: police
These guys are proboly low life KC
Over and out
Not even Hitler was safe from his own inner Nazi. It is narrcistic bad for human including white behavior. The narrcissit will never agree.
The penalty should be death
Death to all addicts that struggle with their diseases with opioid addiction that mostly starts with the good old doctors and vicodin huh? And your better because you ONLY do meth right? Typical Humboldt. You don’t know his past ill put money on it…life is hard and sometimes it feels like were given breaks but cant see the wrong until its too late. I pray for these guys! There is more life out there to live.
