mcso Mendocino County Sheriff's Office MCSOOn 10-13-2016 at approximately 6:03 P.M., Deputies from the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office were contacted by fugitive recovery agents regarding a subject named Joshua Thomas with multiple warrants for his arrest.

The fugitive recovery agents had been searching for Thomas in the Covelo area because he had multiple warrants issued for his arrest in Mendocino County and San Luis Obispo County.  Deputies learned that Thomas was being transported by ambulance to Howard Memorial Hospital and the fugitive recovery agents were following the ambulance.

Deputies responded to the Howard Memorial Hospital Emergency Room where they contacted Thomas who was identified by his license photograph.

Sheriff’s Office dispatch confirmed Thomas had two active misdemeanor warrants from the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Office for multiple drug charges and failure to appear.

Deputies placed Thomas under arrest without incident for the aforementioned warrants.

Thomas was subsequently booked into the Mendocino County Jail where he was to be held in lieu of $120,000.00 bail for the Mendocino County felony warrants and $15,000.00 bail for both of the San Luis Obispo County warrants.

IS IT JUST ME OR IS THIS WEBSITE KIND OF LOSING IT’S LUSTER SINCE THERE HAS BEEN NO MJ BUSTS? THIS SITE WAS MUCH MORE FUN WHEN EVERYONE WAS GETTING BUSTED. NOW IT’S JUST A BORING POLICE BLOG. NEEDS SOME REAL JOURNALISM TO GET THE MOJO BACK. JUST LOOK AT RELATED STORIES ON THE LOSTCOAST OUTPOST. MUCH MORE INTEREST ON THEIR WEBSITE. REDHEADED BLACKBELT WAS ROCKING WHEN THE COPS WERE BUSTING GROWERS, NOW IT’S JUST BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, SAME OLD BULLSHIT NEW DAY. BORING!!

First of all, Dipstick, turn off the Caps Lock key that is more annoying than any “Grammatical Errors”!!! Second there are some slow news days on ANY blog just because this one doesn’t report every little toe stubbing does NOT make it Boring by ANY stretch of imagination!!! If you don’t like it then by all means don’t read it!!!

DO PEOPLE REALLY GIVE A SHIT ABOUT SOME GUY IN COVELO GETTING BUSTING FOR OUTSTANDING WARRANTS. I COULD PERSONALLY CARELESS AND I’M SURE MANY READERS AGREE. THE EMERALD MAGAZINE HAS BECOME THE GOT TO SITE FOR EVERYTHING MJ. WHAT IS THE REDHEADED BLACKBELT ALL ABOUT NOW? JUST A POLICE BLOG OR IS IT MORE THAN THAT? WHAT DIRECTION IS THIS SITE HEADED? I FEEL LIKE IT’S LOST IN LIMBO W/ NO REAL DIRECTION. WHAT WILL THIS SITE LOOK LIKE NEXT YEAR WHEN THER ARE NO BUSTS? PROBABLY HARDLY ANY READERS. GOOD TIME TO REFLECT AND THINK ABOUT WHERE THIS SITE IS HEADED AND WHAT INFORMATION THE PUBLIC REALLY WANTS. DO YOU AGREE OR DISAGREE W/ THESE COMMENTS?

I would say accidents, road closures, power outages, fires, benefits for the community, government regulating, good deeds, positive projects, are a short list of the things Kym tries to cover. Like Kmud, Kym provides our community with a connection to rest of our rural community. Apparently you are new here and all you care about is the pot busts. For the real community there is more to Humboldt than pot and busts. Besides the fact she does this with a Skeleton crew and budget. How much do you do for other people?

Feel free to start your own. Kym is great. I understand she does get some criticism I see on here for following some of the busts, and I do enjoy reading about them. Please take your criticism elsewhere . Thank you Kym.

Never fails there’s always one moron that has to draw attention to themselves by hating on someone or something. I read Kym’s blog everyday and I think she does a great job. So sorry that some people just have the need to be “ATTENTION WHORES” by flapping their gums about nothing that I find interesting to read, I agree you don’t like Kym’s site then click on the X at the top of the page, problem solved….Sheesh!!!

Neither you nor Kym nor anyone else can stop people from NOT doing things that are newsworthy.

LoCO may have more stuff in it, but IMHO their recent upturn in efforts to be “cute” with their headlines and within stories detracts from its being news. News and commentary/opinion deserve to be separated.

The stories are good, people share ideas on things, you can learn how not to steal water or how to rig oil sprayers on your car, or how fast people get released.

There is something for everyone.

Now that’s funny stuff. Yea, the reposting of popo press releases is poor styling, but did you read the kickass report on The football game?!? Dude lighten up. I think you were trying to be funny and failed. Awww that’s OK. Try again, yu might get better at it, humor that is

What other site gives you 29 minutes to edit your comments? NONE! This alone makes coming here and commenting a pleasure as one might change their mind and edit a comment made in emotional haste. I stopped going to LOCO a long time ago: too many short hairs!

Plus Kym isn’t on some millennial trip.

Kids these days never crossed mountain ranges in blizzards to walk to school. Kym understands this…

I always look to Kym for what’s going on in Mendocino County.
If I had to rely on the online Willits no-news, I’d go nuts!

Thank you so much Kym!
