[UPDATE Tuesday]SWAT Arrested Armed and Dangerous Suspect
Kevin Lee Haberman
About 5:45 p.m., the Humboldt County SWAT team arrested Kevin Lee Haberman (age 41) at a residence near the intersection of Hawthorne and Spring Streets in Eureka, stated Sgt. Jesse Taylor of the Humboldt County Drug Task Force in a text message.
Haberman was wanted of a variety of charges (See below) and was considered armed and dangerous.
According to the Humboldt County Drug Task Force press release issued February 7, “Haberman is currently wanted for possession of an illegal machine gun, possession of a stolen firearm, possession of high capacity magazines, and possession of controlled substances for sales.”
Around 4:06 p.m., according to Chief Steve Watson, a uniformed Eureka police officer saw a vehicle associated with a suspect. While the officer was looking around, a window on a nearby residence was open closed. This made him think the suspect might be inside. EPD set up a perimeter. Due to previous threats made, SWAT was called.

Chief Watson said he’s glad that everyone went home safe today.
UPDATE Tuesday: Haberman has been released.
This is a press release from the Eureka Police Department. The information has not been proven in a court of law and any individuals described should be presumed innocent until proven guilty:
Kevin Haberman
On February 24, 2020 at about 4:05 p.m., an officer with the Eureka Police Department located a vehicle associated with wanted person Kevin Haberman parked to the rear of an apartment in the 600 block of W. Hawthorne Street. Haberman (41 of Eureka) was wanted by the Humboldt County Drug Task Force (DTF) and had an active warrant for weapons and drugs.
While the officer investigated the associated vehicle, a window to the apartment was shut. The investigation quickly revealed that Haberman was inside. Additional units responded and a perimeter was set up. Based on the circumstances of the warrant, EPD requested assistance from the Humboldt County Multi-Agency SWAT team.
Upon the arrival and deployment of SWAT members, Haberman was ordered out of the residence. He complied and was taken into custody without further incident. Haberman was transported and booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility (HCCF) on the existing warrant stemming from the DTF investigation.

Bernie voter
Bernie wants convicted felons to be able to vote. Regardless of the rest of his policies, that is the most delusional, vote-buying policy I have ever heard of.
It’s actually not. Prison labor is modern day “slavery” dare I say it. People mess up, sure, but being incarcerated for life doesn’t constitute losing your ability to vote for change in this country. Prisoners are still people counted within our country’s population, they don’t just disappear even if the majority of their rights do.
I know that might be a “radical” idea to some, but I think it’s even more radical to just willfully ignore that although these people are in prison for a reason, that their voices are still heard.
There’s a reason Bloomberg cut ties with an agency that was using prison labor to make phone calls on his campaign’s behalf. Because it’s immoral and modern day slave labor.
Socialism is slavery.
We are all wage slaves
wage slave
/ˈwāj ˌslāv/
nounINFORMAL
a person wholly dependent on income from employment, typically employment of an arduous or menial nature.
The amount of digits in your bank account dictates your freedom; don’t be deceived
Im talking about the millions that are on welfare and “free stuff “ lady. I’m talking about the millions more that will stop working once socialism takes hold. I’m talking about freedoms that will be lost and never regained. For example, I will be FORCED to get “free” healthcare with no other options available. I will be forced to have the same level of care as a street vagrant and will be find if I don’t comply. Forced into sub standard healthcare. There goes a freedom of choice. Nothing from the government is free, the price is control and forfeiture of freedoms. Remember, government cheese comes in only one flavor, ironically, it’s American. Wake up!
You really don’t care about your fellow man at all do you?
He doesn’t care about Corporate Welfare and obscene tax breaks for the rich either.
The Elite have him right where they want him. Sad.
When the fellow man is a lazy dumb drug addict who fails to contribute to society and the well being of others? No I don’t.
You don’t care about your fellow man as you don’t like them to have any freedom at all lest it interfere with your accessing their wallets.
I find my own life is not that important or relevant. The world would be a better place if we all had that attitude. We are all the problem, not the solution. PS. Spot on comment guest!
Oh god, listen to yourself.
And still no word from you fearmongerers about Corporate Welfare. Not a word, so all of your concern about people in your pocketbook is bs.
As soon as the drugs are price controlled, everything else will fall in place. My knee surgery totaled 25k from St. Joe’s. Thankfully I was covered by California after a $110 co-pay. When I received the bill, it was an itemized breakdown of expenses. There were 2 charges for $7800 each for anesthesia, plus $2800 dollars for the anesthesiologist. I was under for less than an hour… the other drugs were the morphine and one little old Vicodin. At the pharmacy I was getting Vicodin for about 30 cents each. They charged me $64 for that one single pill. The level of care would be the same if not better in a single-payer system because we would just get taken care without the being given care based on level of income. The system would not be over-run causing the level of care the be less so the government could afford it, just some people would stop getting obscenely rich from holding us all hostage by legally being able charge whatever they want for the drugs thanks to bought off politicians. Hell, the economy would likely see a huge upswing with all that extra money people didn’t have to spend. The fact that so many in this country go completely broke in their last 10 years of life just trying to stay alive and somewhat healthy says a whole lot about the system. Let’s change it, ya?
Now your bitching cause you don’t get Jack?
Lol, you obviously missed the point of that story. I’m saying that the hospital bills are unaffordable because they ‘jack’ up the prices, from the drugs to a bandaid, to astronomical levels. I’m talking about all drugs, I just used the Vicodin as a unit of comparison. It cost 19k to keep me under for an hour. Wtf is that. Those types of increases are all across the board. If the government controlled healthcare, the prices would be microscopic for the single-payer entity in comparison to what we as a people and an economy pay now for our privatized healthcare. The care would not be lesser. In fact, it would likely be far better, faster, and an infinitely less painful process when you don’t have to wonder how many years in debt you’ll be if you choose to get the care you need
A) Bernie isn’t a real socialist. His platform should be described as plain social in that he cares about the lower classes, the working people and the environment, things that make society work.
B) We live in a nation that is socialistic, but not for the right reasons most of the time. Police, fire, schools, these things are all positive social programs. And we do have a semi socialist welfare state, but as MLK stated, its welfare for the rich through subsidies and tax breaks while the poor are forced to live rugged individualism. What Bernie will do is change the scales, with less welfare for the rich and more incentive towards helping the working class with better jobs. Jobs like installing solar panels on government buildings, one of the many campaign promises that Obama never kept.
But really, we need to get away from descriptors like socialism and capitalism and fascism and communism and start asking ourselves, does this make the people of this nation healthy and happy or not. Does this heal the planet for future generations or not. Does this bring us closer together as a people or not. That should be the criteria.
we need to get away from descriptors? why. is green the new black
You’re right, Sanders isn’t a Socialist, he’s a dedicated Communist. As an individual, he’s ineffective and weak. Out of the 265 laws he proposed while in Congress only two of them got passed. However, he’s surrounded by hard core leftists of the totalitarian persuasion, and if he gets elected, they are the real danger. While Sanders is pretty good at pointing at the problems, and I agree with many of them, his solutions are toxic and will result in oppression and poverty. That’s what Socialism always results in.
He’s a god-dam democrat.

You’re a crappy artist.
Covfefe yourself!
Thats rich. Trying to call Bernie a communist after his years of service, while you apparently have no problem with your ‘president’ selling our nation to Putin? REALLY?
Clearly Sanders is a communist by anyone’s standards and the Russians have had nothing but opposition from the President and have not taken over anything. If you prefer a communist as head of government, at least you can be honest enough to say so. Just as you should be honest enough to place your objections to Trump where they truly are- that he is a capitalist who doesn’t go along with the mystical new world order and not rely on making allegations regarding Trump just because you think other Americans would find it more palatable.
Renaming your agenda “social democracy” is dishonest. Socialists have been angrily intimidating everyone who wants to stop their social-change-by-fiat for over a decade. Democracy is not going to be allowed to stop their bullying anymore than individual rights or tolerance for differences stop them. No agenda that so pits the unproductive against the productive can achieve it’s massive taking by democratic means. In fact it’s agenda thrives by making disparity worse. It encourages the worst aspects of capitalism while wagging its collective finger at it and saying “I told you so”.
#Fearmonger propaganda.
“..Sanders is a communist by anyone’s standards”… You never took a basic civics class in your life son. Turn off Hannity, Infowars, and the rest, and go outside and talk to your neighbors. Bernie Sanders has walked the walk and served the American people HONESTLY for decades.
It should be clear to any thinking person all this socialist/communist crap is only more facebook fodder from Fox and Moscow. But you just keep right on believing the people that have brought you 14,000 LIES and counting. Good luck.
I always enjoy the assumptions that no one can be unsupportive of the latest socialist favorite unless they are ignorant. In reality, it is experience that has lead to knowing the end result of socialism. Any ideology that relies on forcing the masses into a system that is so opposed to their intrinsic nature never knows a place to stop. It must always see forcing people as necessary for their own good even if it kills them. And the history of the twentieth century is filled to the brim with socialists killing off their own recalcitrant population in the effort to make their ideology work. They are worse than religions or kings as death machines.
Hahahahaha. There really needs to be an honest to God Commie in this race for contrast if nothing else. Political discourse has shifted Right so much in the past 50 years that people think a Vermont grandpa who wants people’s lives a little less shitty is Josef Stalin.
Still using that Russian bot disinformation Walk Away bs still?
#Fearmongers
🕯🌳Oooo look same person different moniker. Soooooo scary. 👍🏽🇺🇸👍🏽🇺🇸
It’s the Amazing One Person Tag Team.
Every time I think that reason can save humanity, those whose paranoid ideology rules them make it clear that is not true. For some internal defect makes them think that there are millions and millions of like minded people struggling against a few hidden villains. It is impossible to them to see that the legions of their opponents of agree only because most are at least somewhat sane. Not because they are the same one person.
Yawn…
Hello! Donnie is the Commie. He is in Russia’s pocket! He operates like a KGB mofia member. Melania’s father was a card holder in the communist party!
Venezuela was one of the richest nations in the world until the rich realized that they were being forced into helping millions who could AND would not provide for themselves. The rich left. Venezuela is now one of the poorest, government controlled nations in the world with the poor fleeing to America. It took less than 5 years. The goal of socialism is to put everyone at the same economic level and stature, unfortunately, that is too the lowest denominator. Anything more would be unfair.You will have the same job opportunities,healthcare and food options as the homeless junkie on the street. Nothing more, nothing less.
B.S. Get educated.
Dictionary.” A transitional state of the overthrow of capitalism into the realization of communism.” Educate yourself on the failures of a United Socialist State. There are many flaws, or are talking about Democratic socialism? Yes, we already have that.
Why educate oneself with the TV off? Someone may miss some piece of sharply worded insult aimed at those who, i’ve been told, want the exact opposite of me. Education will interrupt this glorious feedback loop that is my informational source.
Plus, different is scary.
Let me lay here and enjoy being completely socio/econoraped by the billionaires who are rich from my efforts.
I just want to watch the blinky box so I can forget that this broken machine is supposed to be working for us, and it (the WHOLE thing: me, you, us, them) have some (neutralsex)splainin’ to do.
And prolly a good deal of work too.
Or we can just continue to waste time and beat each other up with our opinions some more.
You can spew these uneducated Conservative dumb talking points till the cows come home, it doesn’t make them true.
Poor people are living rent free in your brain. You’re obsessed.
The Elite thanks you very much for spreading their propaganda as they rob America blind.
Seriously, how is someone on Food Stamps directly affecting your life?
The broken record obsession is so old or are you getting paid to do this every day?
So Venezuela is really doing fine and it’s only degenerate capitalists that say otherwise? Really? Venezuelans Do not need food stamps because they’re too busy trying to find any food at all. China engaged in suppression of information about covid-19 because of their paranoia about the losing face just as socialists everywhere worry about losing control of their own propaganda. Socialism always, always suppresses opposition, usually violently, because their whole theory of existence requires socialism not be as evil as individualism. Turns out they are even worse as remedying social ills than the people they blame for them. They can’t afford to let slip the smallest grip on the people lest the people think to notice.
#Fearmonger
“A man who has committed a mistake and doesn’t correct it is committing another mistake.”
Confucius
It’s entertaining as hell seeing what’s left of the few working brain cells that The Righties have squandered for Trump.
Ramping up the fearmongering of Bernie shows how fearful you guys are actually are of him.
Hahahahaha, just think, Trump earned himself an impeachment thinking Biden was who he should be worried about.
The STUPIDITY is a sight to behold.
Quoting Confucius , meh….. You actually think that makes you look smart. Go do some quoting in Trumps direction, he needs it.
No. I think it makes the point that someone addressed the same dysfunctions 2500 years ago.
Oh Guest.. U soo wise. Wise enough to vote for the crooked one who got himself impeached, and his advisors arrested. Confusius never said that Coal slurry waste belongings in the creek.. Oh wise one..Guest
Actually though, while I agree that Venezuela has some problems.
Hugo Chávez Was democratically elected. He actually did do a lot for the poor people of Venezuela. Not like there were not extreme problems. But before Chávez, it was even worse for poor people there. As far as I can understand, the problems escalated when Chávez died. His successor was even worse of a dictator, that and plummeting crude prices sent the nation into turmoil. As it would have any nation dependent on oil profits… Actually though it is true, that if Venezuela would have invested in local food production, and created some factories producing simple goods, they would have been much better off. It seems like they heavily relied upon a single source of revenue.. oil. When it plummeted it sent shock thru the nation…
Despite all though. Not saying Chávez was a saint, or that I agree with his tactics.. just that he actually did do a lot of good for the very poor people of Venezuela.. actually.
Yes. Socialism works for the VERY poor people that have absolutely nothing. Yes. You are correct.
While socialism may largely benefit the poor, in the end it benefits society as a whole. What’s better? Socialist prisons? or socialist education? I vote Education.. When the poor are lifted up, crime rates go down. Capitalism has its perks, but it’s not complete without a little bit of free cheese. Even Adam Smith said that there must be a certain amount of Free cheese involved in a Health Capitalist society.. (ok he didn’t say it exactly like that..lol)
Also, on another note, everyone talks about Venezuela, and all its failures. And there is often very little talk of another country in South America that is tremendously successful. Uruguay…
Uruguay has a thriving middle class, excels at education, has excellent welfare programs, and is fairly wealthy and seems to be thriving. Coined as the Switzerland of South America. It’s brimming with success. They also have a thriving independent And open media.. What about their SUCCESS? Let’s just put the blinders on here in America and create a prison police welfare driven state instead… great!
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-20041847
Ummmm Uruguay is a constitutional republic….. your point?
Compared to many countries in South America, Uruguay has done well. This is in large part due to a massive effort in effective Social programs. A right leaning president just got voted in, so we will see what happens, but even though he leans right, as far as I understand he still a member of a socialist party. So we will see what happens .. No place is perfect, but Uruguay is pretty close. They have a much more balanced home to work life compared to America. Awesome affordable health care, and really Nice beaches. My point is though, that they are successful in large part because of their socialist programs.. Bolivia too, a success story. Everyone balks at Venezuela, but there are several countries in South America that are successful thru socialist programs.
[edit] figure out how you get roads and schools and infrastructure. [edit]
Taxes from people who actually work and contribute to society.
Your idea of a Conservative Utopia will never exist. Humans are humans with all of their foibles and shortcomings. Not everyone is going to be a hardworking citizen. Never have , never will.
You are completely discounting that humans aren’t perfect.
You are also discounting the real rip-offs in our country, the rich elite and the military industrial complex. Your incessant whining about poor people is a total laugh.
Good point there will be no conservative utopia, there will never be any socialist utopia, there will never be a utopia supplied by the government. That’s how government works. some Are arguing that the conservatives are bad others liberals are bad, the common denominator is it’s really the same people running the same government.
Hmm… Must have missed the socialist utopia when it flashed by.
Think I missed the Conservative Utopia also. Trickle Down Economics, Bwahahaha hahahahahaha hahahahahaha.
Conservatives never make a claim of creating a Utopia. Socialists prove their delusions by doing that.
Hey Guewt, are these all bot talking points that you keep spouting? Sayings that you have a list of? Sayings for every possible scenario? Sayings that you think prove your point? Spouting sayings all day long means nothing, anyone can do it. Anyone can google Confucius sayings and think they are proving their point by using them.
So boring and unoriginal.
If you are incarcerated, I guarantee the last thing you care about is reforming society outside the prison walls, no matter if you have been ‘reformed’ or otherwise. Hell, you only have anecdotal evidence as far as what is happening outside the prison walls. The ONLY factor you would vote for is who is most likely to reduce your sentence. Ever heard the saying ‘the inmates running the asylum’? Prison labor is an entirely different issue, and I did not make any comment on that.
That’s assuming everyone incarcerated is guilty.
Ever hear of FREE KEVIN?
Let him Rot!
I’d happily agree to let any innocent prisoner vote anyway they want, even for the warden. Just not until they are found innocent by a court of law.
I don’t understand why in some states they can vote right from a prison cell
A felon can vote in cali. as long as they are not in jail or parole. Its been this way for a long time.
Yes, thank you, I meant active felon sorry. Of course they are going to vote for the person most likely to shorten their sentences… Societal reform is the last thing you care about when you are incarcerated.
Once somebody has served his time, restore his right to vote. This makes sense to me.
Convicted felons have always been able to vote. The only time you cannot vote is when you are incarcerated or on parole. Look it up.
In California, convicted felons can vote after completing their sentence. This has been the case for a very long time. Knowing the law is a good thing, which prevents people like yourself from sounding stupid☺
Ok Brian- don’t you have some dumbass kinetic sculpture to build but first scam those who are not of your race first? Your [edit]

If that’s true why is most of filthy rich Hollywood democrats?
Even Clint Eastwood is dumping Trump.
Being a Republican is fine and dandy.
Voting for America is not a party affiliation.
The Press is not the enemy of America, asking for foreigners to investigate Americans is wrong, and Covfefe means nothing.
No but voting on freedom is. Individualists want the freedom to work for themselves. Socialists can not allow that. Socialists take the relatively small percentage of individual failures as proof that people need to be protected and fed when the reality is that socialism is most happy when there are no visible examples to compare. So socialism ignores and disappears their own homeless, addicted failures and dresses their rich powerful in ordinary clothes so everything looks equal. https://qz.com/1807826/hong-kong-bookseller-gui-minhai-sentenced-to-10-years-by-china/ This is what socialism has to do to survive. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_in_Vietnam
Oh, I’m scared, scared I tell you! Gee, I better vote for Trump, I know damn well he’s looking out for the well being of everyone.
You fear mongers are a hoot.
Nothing but fear mongers.
Socialism has nothing to do with it.
Your concerned about human rights.
Freedom of press and speech are integral for maintaining human rights, fair elections are too.
What your concerned about is authoritarianism.
I am too.
That’s why I don’t get the lack of outrage when Trump calls the Press the “enemy of America” while illegally squeezing assistance from Ukraine to assist his election.
Please don’t confuse him/her/them with facts and reasoned logic!
Wow. Went to high school with Kevin. Looks like Eureka got a hold of him and never let go!

GEE it seems like just yesterday several people were telling me you COULDN’T GET ARRESTED for posession of high-capacity magazines in California anymore.
Don’t drink the NRA-flavored Koolaid, fellas.
Get back to me when he is convicted and then gloat.
From the California Peace Officer Association :
“On April 4, 2019, the District Court issued a partial stay of its injunction concerning Section 32310. Specifically, the Court stated that “the State of California and law enforcement agencies therein will be free to re-start the enforcement of Calif. Penal Code § 32310 (a) and (b) which currently prohibits, among other things, any person in the state from manufacturing, importing into the state, offering for sale, giving, lending, buying, or receiving a firearm magazine able to hold more than 10 rounds (as defined by Calif. Penal Code § 16740). This will continue until the appeal proceedings conclude or the stay is modified or lifted.” The Court, however, stated that “the State of California and the law enforcement agencies therein will remain enjoined (or prevented) from enforcing Calif. Penal Code § 32310 (c) and (d) which would have criminalized the simple possession of a firearm magazine able to hold more than 10 rounds and required the disposing of such magazines.”
“As noted in our prior Client Alert on this case, there currently is a dispute within the legal community concerning the ultimate effect of a broadly-worded injunction in a non-class action lawsuit filed in federal court, such as the one issued here in the Duncan case. As such, you should consult with your legal counsel to determine your agency’s actions with respect to the District Court’s injunction concerning Section 32310.”
https://cpoa.org/district-court-declares-california-law-prohibiting-the-possession-and-use-of-gun-magazines-with-more-than-ten-rounds-unconstitutional/
I’m not gloating, just advising people not to take your terrible legal advice.
Not everybody wants to get arrested in a risky attempt to make case law favorable to the military-industrial complex.
I’ve backed everyone of my assertion’s with organizations who have the authority to make such legal interpretations. Do you have a single reference?
How about THIS ARTICLE, which features A MAN BEING ARRESTED FOR POSSESSION HIGH-CAPACITY MAGAZINES JUST YESTERDAY?
“Haberman is currently wanted for possession of an illegal machine gun, possession of a stolen firearm, possession of high capacity magazines, and possession of controlled substances for sales.” Do you really think that the high capacity magazine was the prevailing charge?
As I quoted from the CPOA:
“As such, you should consult with your legal counsel to determine your agency’s actions with respect to the District Court’s injunction concerning Section 32310.”
The booking report does not show a CPC 32310 charge. So, despite the press release, it was not a charge he was booked on.
