As of 9:45 a.m., multiple law enforcement vehicles, including a wood chipper, two Fish and Wildlife trucks, a California Highway Patrol, eight unmarked vehicles, and a helicopter towing officers on a line are working near Bear Pen Road and Hwy 271 just north of Confusion Hill.

Officers are hanging from the helicopter on a cable and being set down into a remote area.

Kudos to brave and hard working law enforcement for eradicating these illegal and environmentally destructive grows. As cannabis becomes more and more legal these actions will help those playing by the book. Again, if you don’t like cannabis don’t use it especially if you get cancer. Thanks.

If I get cancer, I won’t bother with cannabis, that’s for sure. If death impends, you can expect me to go for the heroin, cocaine and vodka cocktail. I am sure that all the 12 year old’s still like to get high, so there will be a market for your products.

To you I suggest, since you are educated, get a real job, find an occupation more coincident with a lifestyle not dependent on weed. You will be happier.

Thanks to the brave LEO’s who attempt to marginally disrupt and harass the crazy growers…

You’ll live longer not ingesting “organic” weed, sprayed with Forbid for mites.

We all face the barrier, but giving someone an “organic” relief, sprayed with pesticides is dark.

Dope growers have no honor or compassion, just hide behind those checking out and picking pockets….

The use of compensated confidential informants (who remain anonymous) and assett seizure (without charges) are two of the greatest travesties of justice ever inflicted on the people of California. When explained how they are used most people will argue adamantly that I must be mistaken, such laws are violations of constitutional rights.

Exactly Kym, these Sheriff Departments don’t want the public to realize the enormous amount of money and complete waste of resources that these raids are costing our county, not only are they on average abou $15,000 per raid, but these raids are at the expense of our residents, Why? – Real crimes like burglaries, rapes, murders and missing persons go uninvestigated and unsolved. If there isn’t assets forfeiture or $100 bill to slip in each other’s pockets these deputies don’t bother investigating. When was the last time they found a suspicious missing person, solved a homicide or investigated or arrested a burglar? Real crimes against our citizens goes unchecked and unconvinced while this insane war on cannabis farmers who are trying to earn a living continues. This is a travesty and disgrace to the crime victims of Mendocino County.

You got the story on the ferry backwards. The ferry is on the way to San Francisco from the ship yard in Puget Sound Wash.It will ferry up to 400 people on the bay.
It is an Australian designed catamaran. Cats are shallow draft and very stable and fast.
Many Alaska fishing boat operators are switching to cats because of this.

You are insane. Cats are new to the American market relatively speaking. Always late to the new boat technology, the west coast is far behind. The east coast has multiple bid name boat brands popping cats from molds as we speak. These are 29-45 feet long. Monohull builders with 24 month wait lists are jumping in on the cat craze. Manufacturers like Invincible and Sea Vee. They are trying to catch the momentum of Freeman Boats that currently has a 48 month wait on build slots.

Go down to the Gulf, like Venice, Louisiana and check out the charter fleets that typically run to the rigs for yellowfins. They all, well the major majority, run Freeman Cats. There is a reason and the reason is the notoriously sharp, closelyrics spaced Gulf chop. It’s legendary in the boating world. If you can get up and run in the Gulf slop, you can run anywhere.

There is no Monohull made that will run with a cat on a size for size basis. Fact. To dispute this fact, you obviously haven’t spent too much time on the ocean regardless of your user name.

To dispute that Cats are starting to upend the US boating market is silly and out of touch.

I have been running cats since 1998. I currently have a 56′ cat out of Sitka.So many fishermen are switching to cats in Alaska the waiting list is several years out.
They ride so well that sea sickness is becoming a thing of the past. Fuel consumption is less than half that of an equal size mono hull at twice the speed.Most cats are jets, so maneuvering,such as docking takes practice.
Cats and mono hulls both have their strengths and weakness, but cats are seeing a surge in popularity. Even the Navy is now building frigate size cats(trimaran).

I fish out of Kodiak where the men are men and so are the women. I have been a skipper of a Salmon seiner for over twenty years and no cats are not taking over up there, Maybe some Bristol boats but they do not matter to me. Cats are fine for shallow water, But i wouldnt be caught crossing the gulf in one of those unless its calm summer. No shallow draft boat can out fish me. Seen way too much to listen to a Sitka skipper sorry.

So they are dangerously riding suspended cables to distant grows? But there are many HUGE grows and greenhouse operations that could be easily driven right up to! This seems like a big excuse to pretend at eradication while actually spending funds on getting LESS plants. What about hitting neighborhoods of huge greenhouse operations and taking those out? Too simple?

Yes. They used it on us because we had to get very remote. No roads, pack in supplies on our backs, mix fertilizer and Stutzman’s w/ native forest soil, etc. CAMP drove us deep into the hills and they used this dope-on-a-rope technique to get there and to spot our little patches of 2 or 3 plants spread out. But now it’s all in the open and very obvious and you can drive right up to and in some cases INTO the greenhouses!! This is fake eradication! When you could just drive into Panther Gap and get 10 times as much per hour why are they doing this?!! Why are some very heavily grown parts of the county off-limits to eradication?

Helicopter Rental ; $950 Per Hour! Mendo Voice just did a great article about the Infamous Mendo Sheriff Department targeting and singling out our Native American Peoples, Reservations, Rancherias and tribal lands. Seems Old Allman still got an ax to grind with the Indians since the whole Bear Lincoln aquital after the Deputy shot the other deputy and framing Bear Lincoln failed almost 20 years ago….. the article in the Mendo Voice was excellent and RARE! SURPRISINGLY THE ARTICLE wasn’t just a copy-paste press report from Old Allman”s Desk, they actually did some good investigating and found the following;
“Helicopter Rental Price”

As is often the case in Mendocino County, COMMET was accompanied by a rented helicopter. An interview with the fuel truck operator, parked near the scene of the raid, confirmed that the helicopter company providing the rental was A&P Helicopters, out of Richvale in Butte County.

In a brief phone interview Vickie Compton, president of A&P, stated that the cost of a helicopter rental, for the class of copter rented by the MCSO, is $950 an hour, and that the MCSO does not receive a law enforcement, or bulk rate discount. She stated that they rent to other law enforcement agencies in the area, that the MCSO generally rents for about six hours at a time, and that the rental cost includes the pilot. It’s unclear exactly how many hours the copter operated yesterday, but The Mendocino Voice saw it flying between 2pm and 2:45pm, and other people report seeing it perhaps as early as 7am — which would put the cost of rental at at least $7000.

The fuel truck operator said that Sergeant Bruce Smith was flying in the copter that day, that the copter had been used for observation and, as is visible in a widely shared video, to lift out large amounts of destroyed plants. He also pointed out that the helicopters can go about two and a half hours between refuelings, have a range of about 300 miles, and have a top speed of around 120mph. The fuel truck tags along to provide refueling for the helicopter, and is often parked near where law enforcement is operating, however, the copter and pilot make the trip from Butte County by air. The truck was a white pickup, with an A&P logo on the side, and a fuel tank and mechanism in the bed.” Read the article, it also discloses the fact that the Sherwood Valley Tribal Chairman snitches out his own tribal members… very interesting and great reporting by the Mendo Voice Link: https://www.mendovoice.com/2017/07/sherwood-raid/

How can Mendocino Sheriff Department waste $950 per hour for a helicopter to bust Cannabis Farms and then go over budget every year and cry to the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors that they don’t have enough money to buy any more Military Grade War Toys to play with and use against the local farmers of Mendocino County, these deputies are making a killing considering the pocket stuffed $100 bills and the cost of bring 20+ swat team members to “take chase” in the woods to bring our local farmers to justice for their alleged “environmental crimes”, crimes which are a laugh and chuckle compared to what logging companies and Calfire ae doing to the Redwood Ecosystem in Jackson State Forest between Willits and Fort Bragg on Highway 20….. From 10,000 feet on Google Earth the worst damage to Mendoza County is from the logging of the Redwood Ecosystems Between 101 and Hwy 1. Look at the clearcut patches of what was pristine old growth forests 30 years ago.

Dear Helicopter Rides,

Who are all these ‘local farmers’ of whom you speak? All the actual farmers I know don’t buy dirt.

I’ve flown over Mendocino County, and the cumulative impact from the many, many grow scenes seems to be much worse than the logging. For the record, I’m not a fan of either scenario.

Yes MCSO, bust the burglars ripping off our homes, bust the car thieves which are creating an epidemic of car theft, bust all the child molesters who are messing with little kids all over this county, bust the drunk drivers driving all over the county at 2am after the bars close, fine the logging companies destroying our forests and depositing sediment in our salmon spawning beds, do something about the human smuggling and sex trade which is taking place at the “cheap motels” in Willits, Ukiah, Fort Bragg and Laytonville, please, do bust em all, but get the real bad guys and leave our Cannabis Farmers alone, there are real crimes taking place which the Sheriff Department knows about and does nothing about. It seems they only bust the crimes which have a chance of filling the deputies pockets with $100 bills, the theft and asset forfeiture from this department runs amok while cannabis remains the #1 priority and homes, businesses and cars are ripped off and the true crime and criminals never investigated. Shame Tom Allman, Shame Bruce Smith!

I can tell I hit a vein there! I think that even you don’t fully believe yourself. That’s why you must insist so forcefully! Perhaps the lettuce haze is temporarily slipping from your mind and you are having a clear moment- where you know that hills full of huge lettuce grows and criminals running free through the streets might not be a good thing?? Well….it’s not! And Tom Allman is doing what he can to keep these lettuce heads from turning this county into another cesspool like Humboldt!

so you want to keep Mendocino from turning into a cesspool by dropping off [edit] to cut down medicine in the middle of no where that was grown by locals who have lived in those hills since the 80’s? I think you are the one who is clearly delusional and possibly your mind is not at full capacity because you havent unlocked its full potential. Most likely your pineal gland is calcified and so you cant understand anything accept for the dogma and rhetoric that is fed to you by main stream society.
I understand , Gmos are so prevalent in all our food that guys [edit] who have never hauled a bag of dirt up a hill in your life cant think straight, and are just another member of the uneducated masses that keep our society from progressing. Time for my legal recreational bonghit that people like me made possible , [edit]

i can sort of understand that, but you also edited my statement that people like” lettuce crimes ” are perpetuating oppresion. I happen to know that some of the gardens that were cut were small ma and pa growers, meanwhile corporations are planting plantations its completely absurd.

How will “Removal of most grows will reduce all crime.” Could you explain this complete bulls hit you created in your illusion?
It is purely a fictional wrong illusion, without cannabis crime’s such as theft and robberies will increase, this is obvious!

Any update on this bust? Was it private property or on public land?
