Two Sought in Humboldt County Drug Task Force Investigation of Methamphetamine Distribution
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:
On August 12th, 2019, at approximately 3:00 p.m., Special Agents with the Humboldt County Drug Task Force, with the assistance of the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office, served a search warrant at a residence located in the 5100 block of Walnut Drive, Eureka. During their multi-week investigation, agents received information that the resident, Maria Salas Camacho (age 53), is distributing large amounts of methamphetamine throughout Humboldt County. Camacho’s associate, Richard Dean Langdon (age 62) is also believed to be involved in Camacho’s operation.
Upon arrival, agents learned that Camacho and Langdon were not on scene and had left prior to the warrant being served. Agents located a trailer on the property that appeared to serve as a weigh station for methamphetamine distribution. This location was monitored via remote surveillance system. Inside the trailer agents located several digital scales, packaging material, and other items associated with methamphetamine distribution.
Agents continued their search and located approximately ½ pound of suspected methamphetamine buried on the property. In addition, agents located illegally possessed prescription narcotics and ammunition. Both Camacho and Langdon are previously convicted felons who are prohibited from possessing ammunition.
Agents have since secured a Ramey Warrant through the Humboldt County Superior Court for Camacho and Langdon. The charges on the warrant include possession of controlled substances for sales and illegal possession of ammunition.
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.

“Two NOT Arrested In Humboldt County Drug Task Force Investigation of Methamphetamine Distribution”
You’re so right, my mistake, just corrected it.–Robin Fleckles
that guy needs to lay off the meth.wow.
“Two warrants issued for the arrest of…”
Yes, I was hurrying and made that mistake, I just corrected it, my apologies.–Robin Fleckles
You’re doing just fine, Kym! I’d love to see these people keep up with half of the stuff that You do! Not only the news, but also all of people You help in the process.
Not Kym either.
Kym as long as i can understands what it means thats all that matters thanks for bringing the news
??Isn’t that same area granny lives in?
Hang em, after a fair trial of course,
Hmmmm…left before the bust went down….someone on the inside tipped them off?
Doubted… Tweeker dealers… always on the move
>”Tweeker dealers… always on the move”
Dealers wouldn’t leave a half pound of meth buried in the yard.
Either they got wind of what was happening… or they were just er… ‘out’ at a convenient time.
lol
On todays episode of goosestepping with gavin…
Leeches, drug addicts, and socialists.
Oh my
Gavin and socialists. Got it. Thanks for the tip.
Illiterates, reactionaries and fascists, o my!
Making America “great” again: YEAH RIGHT!
Indeed. Any financial help for the poor is somehow considered Socialism by the Right. But huge tax payer subsidies payed out to Corporate entities is somehow OK! Go figure.
corporations employ a ton of people. If they don’t get some sort of incentive to stay in the USA off to china or Mexico they go…
Some would just call that a “Ozark retirement program”.
It’s not like working for any of the Fortune 500 companies will leave you with a better retirement option. Unless you’re one of the suit and tie guys hobbing and nobbing with Jeff Epstein anyway.
He’s not high in that picture. Honestly.
Watched too many Breaking Bad reruns……
Perhaps if they had watched Air America instead, they would have known enough to apply for one of those government-sanctioned trafficking networks.
Like the one that lost a plane on a mexican tarmac about a decade ago.

“A source is a source of course”
My buddy Mr. Ed says “a horse is a horse of course of course”~!
More of the walking dead put them in a cell for a while let them come back to life
They remind me of the 80’s for some reason
Humans are fascinating. Especially ’round here.
??Maybe they’ll get housed together?
Haha, and than later after they get out they both get law degrees and start a practice together, everyone wins 🙂
Keep it up no dope no need, for needles laying every were .the last 10 years it’s gotten bad ,but great work DTF .
How do you have remote surveillance and kick the door when they’re NOT there?!?! Was the guy watching the remote surveillance asleep at the wheel?!?! You can’t even be serious, you saw them bury meth on surveillance but didn’t know they weren’t there?!?! Wow! Resources well spent
The suspects had remote surveillance.
You don’t need surveillance to find the meth, just a little puppy dog.
My X wife could sniff it out
?
Nice work LEOs!!! More of the cartel distribution being rolled up.
In a sane world these creeps would still be in prison for the crimes for which they’ve already been convicted. However, thanks to crime friendly California politicians (almost exclusively in the Democratic party) and naive voters supporting deceptively named ballot measures, these outstanding folks are out poisoning your neighbors, sons, and daughters.
Time to Walk Away from the politicians who value criminals more than law abiding citizens. Send a message this next election cycle and stop voting for politicians from the far left posing as Democrats.
??Well it’s apparent who’s side your on,and it’s the losing side. I do agree we need to pass stricter laws but we lack space to house them. You can blame it on the Democrats all day long but it boils down to housing.
But isn’t that the point? What’s the use of passing stricter laws if there are no consequences for violating them?
no it doesn’t willi. We have plenty of housing in state and federal prisons. Send them where they belong. California Democrats protect drug addicts, thieves , and murderers. Like many…. I’m sick n tired of people Like this. Humboldt/California merry go round.
“Laws and rules without punishment are only guidelines for manipulation.”
(Me)
LOL
Get real.
The reason that California had to pull the “reallignment” crap has nothing to do with “Liberals” or “Democrats” and everything to do with Ken Lay, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael “Junk Bond King For Life” Milken and other scumbags who literally stole billions (9 of them in fact) from California taxpayers who were forced to make good the losses incurred during the phony “energy crisis” of 2001 brought on by a bunch of REPUBLICAN SCUM.
A source is a source, my horseface liar:

(oops. Sorry. California taxpayers “only” got screwed out of 7.5 billion since Schwarzenazi (source: https://www.nytimes.com/2003/10/04/national/schwarzenegger-releases-data-on-hitler-comments.html ) let them “settle” their debt for pennies on the dollar.
Again with the stinkin’ facts!
It wasn’t Republicans or even Schwarzenegger who created that amount in the settlement- it was (according to your links Vote Smart being reliable ) the bankruptcy court judge who reduced the $1.5 billion settlement. Probably because that was all there was to get.
“Enron gave the money to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, an organization that aids Senate Democratic candidates. But Robert Bennett Robert Bennett , a Washington attorney representing Enron, said the contributions were business as usual, and were not intended to influence impending congressional investigations into the company’s dramatic collapse.” “”Donations of this type reflect certain political realities which are followed by all major corporations,” Bennett told the Associated Press, referring to Enron’s $50,000 checks issued on Nov. 25 and Nov. 26, just a week before Enron filed for bankruptcy protection on Dec. 2. ” https://www.forbes.com/2001/12/27/1127topnews.html#302a91ba6042
The reality to be faced is that money follows power like a dog follows a bitch in heat. And which bitch is doesn’t matter. Which is why following the meetings with contributors BEFORE voting in more important than party affiliation voting.
That fella seems just a bit wound up.
Liberals are very wound up. It’s how they communicate there denial and frustrations. Watch. If joe Biden/ Bernie Sanders gets elected are you going to see a bunch of republicans running around spitting on POC, burning flags, rioting, breaking glass in democratic offices, assaulting people, and blaming there misfortunes on “nazis”? No. You won’t. We will just be sitting back cleaning our firearms and waiting for the [edit] to turn this country into the next Guatemala or Venezuela. Hope you like free government cheese….
The heroin and meth. dealers are so sneaky.
They have been trying this new thing where a car that you’ve never seen before will stop somewhere suspiciously, then a flurry of transient appearing pedestrians and transient appearing people on bicycles show up at the same time. Very fast, if you blinked, you’d almost miss it.
And then they all disappear, as quickly as they came.
I’ve seen it in Redway at the north end transient “city”. Free phones and needles only exasperate the problem. We as a society got to make sure that dealers,pushers and addicts all stay in touch. It used to be a needles EXCHANGE program, now there just free, because we care ssssoooooo much that they don’t give each other HIV and hep c. Enabling? I’ll let you decide.
Government cheese….its 100% enabling. Why don’t they just hand out the meth/heroin or whatever with the needles?
Do you think it’s the cell phones that they communicate to their drug dealers with?
It’s like they have some weird network or something.
Thanks
Taking issue with “Press Release from the Humboldt County Drug Task Force:”
Kym Kemp. I’m personally calling you out on this one.
HOW can you pass republishing a drug task force press release verbatim as journalism? The HCDTF is an interested party, not a neutral, disinterested journalist. Your publication is merely a propaganda machine if its not checking facts and adding the insight we expect from a journalist of your high caliber.
Anytime law enforcement gets a Ramey warrant in a case not involving violence, citizens, especially journalists in the free press, should be suspicious because the District Attorney’s case screening process and the interests of justice that accompany prosecutorial discretion are being bypassed by law enforcement for some insider’s personal campaign. This a case involving mere statutory possession crimes unknown to the common law, not a murder case or a case in which further great bodily injury might occur to someone absent a prosecutorial bypass. And no follow-up has been done to publish the fact that Maria Camacho turned herself in at the Humboldt County jail the very next day, depriving some young go-getter of a pat on the back and a feather in his cap; not to mention Ms. Camacho has a note on her jail file saying “no bail allowed” even though the SCHEDULE of BAIL adopted by the Humboldt County Superior Court states that in a case where the lead charge carries a max term of 3 years bail is set by default to $25,000. Maybe Ms. Camacho doesn’t have a spin doctor on her payroll and auto-publication through your website like the HCDTF. Barf….
First time here?
Michael, Redheaded Blackbelt is mostly one person. I publish press releases multiple times a day usually–clearly marked and with the statement at the top that everyone is presumed innocent until proven guilty (I think I’m the only local news media that does that.) I do not do that as JOURNALISM. It clearly isn’t. I do that to provide information to my readers. I do my best to make it known that the Sheriff’s Department is providing their version of events and I’m merely sharing it and I have not checked it for facts. (Note that press releases are published in a different format with a different color background and stripe down the side–again I believe I am the only news media that does this.)
Now, I don’t like that I rarely get to provide the defendants’ sides. But, do you know how many times I’ve talked to defendants only to have their attorneys ask that they not tell their story publicly? Now, if Maria Camacho or her attorney would like to speak to me, even to just send out a press release, my email is [email protected]
I may be wrong…but I’m betting no one contacts me.
EDIT: And I owe you an apology. I had someone helping me who posted this and he didn’t put the innocent until proven guilty writing at the beginning. I’ve remedied that. And, your client has my deepest apologies…that was a bad mistake on our part.
I thing Mike Acosta is her attorney.
I do, too. But I still need information that’s more solid than someone claiming to be him in the comment section.
If Maria turned herself in where is Richard?
