Two Men Arrested for Human Trafficking and Cruelty to Children After Traffic Stop Near Laytonville Yesterday
Yesterday afternoon, law enforcement conducted a traffic stop near Laytonville and discovered what was believed to be a human trafficking situation resulting in the arrest of at least two men and the release of two children to the custody of Mendocino County Child Protective Services.
Scanner traffic around 4:00 p.m. indicated California Highway Patrol requested Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office deputies to Highway 101 south of Laytonville where two children were found in the company of three men.
Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office Captain Greg Van Patten confirmed that deputies provided an agency assist finding three adults and two juveniles at the scene. As to what might have initiated the law enforcement interaction that resulted in the discovery, Captain Van Patten suggested a traffic stop. He could not provide any further details because CHP is the lead agency.
MCSO Booking Logs indicate that two Santa Rosa men were booked on charges of human trafficking and cruelty to children yesterday evening.
The two men charged with “human trafficking to obtain forced labor or services” and “cruelty to child-inflict injury” are 36-year-old Abraham Sumano Casillas and 23-year-old Fernando Francisco. A third man was booked into the county jail at approximately the same time as Casillas and Franciso but his charges have yet to posted.
It is important to note that these charges have not been proven in a court of law and any person charged with a crime should be presumed innocent until proven guilty.

Disgusting human trafficking of minors. Shocking that no heroin or fentanyl was on board. Curious, were they eligible to vote for Biden?
Twice
Good one!
Three times
Hey Joe, you are not letting in the worlds finest to be part of our country. Why settle for less, it’s our country and while you expose us to rampant crime and unknown disease from all over the world, you sit outside the “urban jungle” you disparage and laugh, secure in your mind you and the enlightened are far away from our nightmare you are creating. Thanks Joe, you are a real swell guy. Were these two meeting up with your son? Just curious.
what scares me is that in May he started doing all of this freaky stuff and his approval rating dropped like a stone.
He backtracked on taxing corporations, on cap gains, etc… just total corporate shill stuff…
And his approval rating tanked 20% and its as if he doesn’t even care.
Thats scary when they stop giving a crap. Like Maxine saying “who is going to punish us?”
Please provide the poll which shows Biden’s approval rating falling by 20%.
Perhaps he does not seem to care because it has not happened?
My thoughts as well. Biden has been a solid 54% since he took office. Not great, but double digits above Trump’s usual.
“A new Quinnipiac University poll finds that President Joe Biden’s approval rating stands at 46%, while his disapproval rating sits at 43%. His approval rating in Quinnipiac’s previous poll was 49%…A look at the average of all the polls gives Biden a slightly better spread: an approval rating of 50% and a disapproval rating of 44%” https://www.cnn.com/2021/08/08/politics/biden-approval-ratings-analysis/index.html
He’s come down about 10 points from the ‘honeymoon’ high of 62%
62 X .2 = 12.4%. So ten point drop is a 16% drop from his all time high — I said it was a 20% drop in his approval rating.
I was doing the math in my head. Sorry I was off Kym, penguin, et al.
Truth be told I was siding with him until he brought in the PPT to pump the stock market, reversed on the corporate tax rate, reversed on the cap gain increase, and started posting some huge package numbers ala Stephanie Kelton who I think is nuts.
Then with the vaccine mandates for our troops, he lost me, permanently.
Being a fiscally minded libertarian lib is tough. I like Trump on a lot of issues and as a leader just fyi but didn’t vote.
Too many of these types around now for me (see below gif)
Jesus I’ve seen some fox-brainwashed circle-j&^ks on the internet, but this takes the cake. Sieg heil you guys. Wow.
No they were probably meeting with known human trafficker Matt Gaetz. Let’s not forget Jeff Epstein and his good pal Trump. FYI they were all born in America.
Here’s a politician who is actually being charged…

you can actually say you voted for Biden!! Wow I would be ashamed of myself if I did what a horrible weader he is. Oops I meant leader.
Mexico isn’t sending their best people.
Story says they are from Santa Rosa? Can’t you read?
Marijuana- the Herb of Peace and Love! So glad that “legalization” made us all “free” and “safe”!!
Human trafficking is just another way to say slave trading. I wish these men could be subjected to a lifetime of whatever they had planned for those children.
How does this relate to Joe Biden. The article states “Santa Rosa men.” Human trafficking is a crime and must be stopped.
Because if it anything involves a brown skinned person it’s immediately assumed that it’s Bidens fault because “open borders”.
This disgusting excuse for a human could be born and raised in the USA for all they know.
You notice the same people ( under many different names) say the same thing every day all day long in these threads. Stuck Record syndrome. Like we forgot what they said hours before so there’s that reminder they feel obligated to release just in case we think of other things besides what takes up most of the space in their brains, poor things.
You’re right, it’s literally the politicians that the Democrats of this state have elected . I mean the open border sanctuary state policy surely hasn’t given the cartels free reign to conduct all operations.
Probably a few older gentlemen picked up some laytonville honeys and were headed south for a get together with some other elder folk at a motel.
Cartels have been operating regardless of which party is in power. Where have you been?
Well, there is a crisis at the borders, a big one. And you can thank Biden for that. Also, where to you think all the fentanyl is coming in from all of a sudden?
China. It may be imported by way of Mexico but it comes from China.
Sheesh.
Have you been to the border?
183-foot-long drug traffickers’ tunnel discovered near California-Mexico border

CALEXICO, Calif. (Border Report) — Authorities believe drug traffickers dug a 183-foot-long tunnel near the U.S.-Mexico border and outfitted it with electricity, ventilation, a rail system and an electric hoist.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement special agents with the Homeland Security Division and Mexican officials found the tunnel in a home in Mexicali, Baja California, on Monday. The tunnel was about four feet by three feet wide and was 22 feet below the ground. The tunnel came within three feet of the international border wall but did not reach the United States.
Cardell T. Morant, special agent in charge of HSI San Diego, said in a release drug traffickers use tunnels like this one to “conduct illicit activities virtually undetected” near and across the border.

The border is like swiss cheese. But we’re just picking on brown people. I wouldn’t care if they were purple or green people, it’s still wrong, and playing the race card doesn’t make it right.
Well then, who needs Open Borders when they tunnel underneath the border from one structure to another ?
I grew up in Arizona. They literally find a tunnel every couple months…for decades …it doesn’t matter who the current president is or what political party they pretend to represent….these scumbags that keep getting busted for drugs. Guns and whatever else are not cartel ….the cartels sell very large quantities of drugs to people that sell smaller quantities then the same…on and on down the pipeline it goes until someone gets busted with a couple pounds of shit….these people may or may not have crossed the border but they are so far down the chain that they are just dealers….they are most likely connected to street gangs….which the leaders of these street gangs are who buys direct from the cartels….you won’t see the leaders of street gangs driving around nor Cal with drugs….they stay inner city and sell their product to people that sell it to there idiots….all you have to do is watch Netflix to understand this….so my point is….NONE OF THESE IDIOTS GETTING BUSTED AROUND HERE ARE IN A “CARTEL”
Yes, those same people (under many different names) who you never call out specifically. Why not?
Quit acting like they don’t. Kym has commented to them many times in threads that they can only use one name per thread. She’s also mentioned that under their new email address they haven’t been banned or they haven’t had any comments deleted.
There is no limit to how many email addresses you can possess.
You think because I don’t accuse them ( under one of their many names) by name ( which Kym wouldn’t allow) that it’s untrue? You know damn well that people post under many different names.
You can say to someone that you think they post under another name. Just try to do it in a non insulting way
Looks like you just got the green light from the boss. Feel free to identify those Russian bots. If someone is using multiple names in a nefarious way, we would all benefit from identifying them and making their behavior known. (And we all know there are a few who make no effort to hide their multiple names. For example, VMG and the exclamation man of hwy 36 are not bots.)
There is no other card other than the race card. NOBODY can make a rational assumption about a criminal’s origin now that we are not allowed to know a persons immigration status. Similar to the practice of suppressing information as to where COVID cases were clustering at the start.
Does not make any sense at all, other than to cause hate and division. So to all of you who relish our present political climate, congratulations.
Oh please, care to place a bet.
Open borders
Commenters seem to want to use children for their own political agenda. The men,,, in this story are disgusting. The commenters are disgusting light.
Yep, nailed it.
Hick speaks truth.
you little whiners blaming weed for child sex trafficking disgust me….
“using children” GTFO
You are the ones using this to bash “marijuana” as if this has ANYTHING to do with cannabis?
Seriously, go move to North Korea
Your just mad because your party was in bed with Pedo Epstein and you know it. Your whole lie of a party.
I am libertarian. I dont vote because its a woke joke.
Look as they send in illegals to infect you and traffic kids.
Open borders, open checkbooks, hyperinflation, but its SOOO woke.
Pray for the kids… So sad they DO THIS TO KIDS!
SICKOS MAN
Absolutely disgusting. Good catch LEOs. Note… there’s a lot of other cars like that traveling up and down. Remember the teen girl kept in the box in Lake County a few years back. Twisted ass shit. Folks in Covelo a while ago saying the coyotes were bringing extremely young teen aged women up because the older men were sick of their 30 something wives. They had enough money to pay for their transport the girls were due in town a while back. If you’re an undocumented illegal few things. When your “hubby” is sick of you bye bye he finds a new one. Any kids they had grow up, get passed off when they think they are old enough. Just another layer of the thick underbelly, they are getting close to the bacon.
You mean ILLEGAL ALIEN WHO IS WANTED!!!!!!
Good one……
You mad ?
Not going to let these children’s misfortune detract from a good racist conspiracy theory..
TWEP.
Multiple studies have show that the undocumented commit significantly less crime than US citizens. If trafficking was involved it would be more credible to implicate gangs. Scapegoating minorities is an age old game of the far right. Not really different from the ‘swindlers that stabbed us in the back” You know, the ones with big noses. They must be supported by Biden too. The GOP Paramilitary will teach them to know their place.
Oh really!! This from that GOP “paramilitary” news service, the BBC.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-13201212
And I could leave you links to multiple studies that say exactly the opposite, except my post would be removed..
I doubt it. I just remove the links to crap sites but it’s easy enough to copy and paste them if you have a passion for misinformation.
I realize that you are a proponent of free speech but you allowing your great reporting of real news to be pushed aside with all these wacko posts. Thank you.
Skipping the comments is pretty easy.
It will, my posts have been regularly removed for going on about a year now if I try to leave a link. I generally only post mainstream links, and I try my best not to insult other posters unless they insult me first. There’s actually a really good article on the hill that I tried to leave a link to (or is that not a credible source these days?) Describing how little information there actually is on illegal immigrants and crime. Most studies are just done on all immigrants. There’s also a couple of studies done by the Cato Institute and the institute for immigration studies. Or do only liberal-leaning websites like NPR, Washington Post, MSNBC, CNN, Etc meet your criteria of credible sources. Could you maybe provide a list of credible sources that we are allowed to use?
With the email you are using now, I have not removed a single comment of yours. I’ve sent you a picture of what happens when I search my trash for your email.
That may be true nationally but locally they are coming to work in an illegal drug industry and I think that they are involved in significant criminal activity here. More than American citizens to argue otherwise is I think a farce and you know it to be untrue. Demographically we need the immigration just not of gang connected criminals.
Bang on Karl!
So I have a question for Karl. Is it okay if we get after the bad guys or not?! Or do we just keep This is not a matter of scapegoating a minority. It is a matter of the subject being twisted to divert attention from a valid concern by using racial straight up political bullshit, when we should be taking out the trash.
You mean ILLEGAL ALIEN!!!!
Who has already broken the law by being here. COME ON MAN
Liberals always playin the race card. Why is it that when folks get disgusted w human trafficking, deadly drugs, illegal entry, etc., it’s always comes back to racism? They play it cause it’s their ace in the hole. Scream racism and it makes everything better?
Trump is living rent free in your head!
As if Biden and Hunter don’t live rent free in some heads here?
Doesn’t Hunter live in So. Cal maybe that’s where they were going.
Thud
This just in: officers conducted a jocularity test and they only registered an index of 3.9 jocules, far below the required level of jocularity. Additional charges are pending and will be reviewed by The California Dept. of Fairness and Feeeeeelings.
Agreed! This guy fails the jocularity test… No bueno!
Yes she has.
I really fail to see how connecting illegal immigration to a porous southern Mexico border is considered racist? I guess we’re racist against all the people from a hundred plus different countries that are illegally crossing the southern border. listen, if the problem was with the Canadian border I would be bitching about that. I have just as big of a problem with white people from White countries that overstay their visas or illegally cross our Southern border, or the Canadian border, or paddle their ass across the ocean on a f****** goddamn floating table and then turn around and commit crimes. 30% of our federal prison population are illegal immigrants that we are paying to house and feed and provide medical care to..
And Gavin is so helpful with his sanctuary for criminals cites.
Vote for Larry Elder. And yes I know what color he is.
Vote Larry Elder
A good thing about the Mendo sheriff’s office, they seem to take sex crimes seriously. I had an incident and they were very interested in getting as much info about the guy as possible. Have not always had that consideration in other places throughout my life. I once looked at Megan’s list in a couple cities in Mendo and was very surprised about the number of offenders and wondered why. I think they just prosecute more than many counties. Good on them!
Yes- I will give it to Mendocino for this. Up in Humboldt we finally had a DA who said he prosecute violent crimes and crimes against children (like Mendocino does). But all he actually did was open up the county to a massive greenrush- which INCREASED those crimes. Then he went surfing. Eventually even the stupid hippie growers figured out his scam show and he left that office. Humboldt is still reeling from those lost years…
keep it simple..child predators must hang .drug traffikers hang.
Greasy Gavin will never allow that. Even if the people vote for it. Newsom wants us to be compassionate with everybody- even murderers and child molesters. Everybody is a victim of something!!
Wonder if they have anything to do with the incident at the peg house.
Probably the man’s families kids. Just an excuse to kidnap the children for $$$$$.
How do I know?
Because my family was victimized in a similar manner
Bullshit! Dont fall for it! Find out from the mother whose life is probably being ruined now for the poor JUDGMENTS of government officials
I would be more worried about the “other” immigrants, rather than the Mexican’ts , they aren’t looking for jobs!
🕯🌳Some of you just need to stop and look around your own neighborhoods and see what really going on. 🖖🖖
How can they stop and look around their neighborhoods with their head’s that far up their asses?
Willie Bray… More like lot of folks know what’s going on. They just don’t give a s***, or are numb to the s***. Hmmm either…palms are getting greased, their backs are getting scratched, their _ _ _ _ is getting _ _ _ _ _ _. Makes it easy to look the other way. No nothing happening here! NIMBY. No problem…it’s fine! ❤
Put them on a chain gang and force them to work out in the hot sun. We need vigilantes who would do that, as soon as our liberal cops let them out. Grab them, put them to work, chain them good.
we need vigilantes to force people into labor without conducting an investigation! how could that possibly go wrong?
Unique charges, way way way down on the totem poll as HT charges go. I don’t see a unlawful restraint.
In all likelihood the children were 14-17yrs old, I base this off the extremely unique and low HT charges.
The laws that apply to human trafficking are pretty simple yet vastly open for interpretation.
Transportation of a youth 14-17 for the purpose of trimming can also be charged as human trafficking.
I believe that is what we are looking at based on the missing unlawful restraint, no assault. Those are almost instantly applied in cases of legitimate HT.
Moreover, the cruelty charge. I personally have only seen applied in a HT case when an animal was used as a coercion technique to keep the prostitutes in line without threat of force. Threatening the well-being of the victim’s animal.
Cruelty lacks the aspect of battery & assault. I’d guess psychological in this case.
Hope I’m right and this is all there is to this.
They gave him a 25000$ bond. So he pays 2500$ and he’s out.
I commend the officer/s who discovered this horrible crime. Who knows what these poor children have been through up to this point in time and countless others not found. Regardless of politics, there should be the strongest military presence at the border with the most top sophisticated equipment. The good are strongly welcomed to this country as that was what the USA is all about despite what many thought otherwise in our history. The bad and their illegal activities that destroy and kill innocent people need to be stopped right at the border. I’m afraid the USA is heading more in that direction if something isn’t done sooner. The innocents have been through enough.
How much does a kid sell for, anyway? Just curious; not looking to buy one. I wouldn`t want one if you gave it to me, honestly.
So I have a question for Karl. Is it okay if we get after the bad guys or not?! Or do we just keep This is not a matter of scapegoating a minority. It is a matter of the subject being twisted to divert attention from a valid concern by using racial straight up political bullshit, when we should be taking out the trash.
Rapists murderers drug dealers bad hombres
Thank you for the legalization of the wonderful weed y’all worship.
Enjoy🤙
It ain’t the weed it’s the money. If pot was entirely legal there would be no money in it, and no crime around it. The same thing happened when they made booze illegal. It’s simple when (if) you think about it.
A lot of words. From a lot of people. Trump this Biden that. Human trafficking, yes- bad. Global climate catastrophe- not good. Sociopath climate catastrophe denial trump -pretty bad. Close the loop.
Pretty soon no one will have anything to complain about Unless we as human beings change our ways.
[…] The Ukiah Police logs, published daily on their website, indicate UPD officers responded to the scene after the man’s presence was reported, and by the time officers arrived, he was “fully dressed” and the man left upon request. […]
Voters remorse??
Could be as simple as giving illegal juveniles a ride to something much more sinister. Its human trafficking to hire illegal aliens. Too bad the Sheriff and Chp are so tight lipped. What was really going on… it would be interesting if sometimes papers reached out for the story from the alleged perpetrators.
Local’s that get money from Cartels to grow on there ptoperty see all kinds of them on every mountain brings this kind of thing and alot more ilegal activity’s bet half of people comment on this got Mexicans growing on there property for profit
