2,312 Marijuana Plants Eradicated in Blocksburg After Trespassing Leads Deputies to Illegal Grow

Marijuana Enforcement Team METThis is a press release from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office:

On July 14, 2025, deputies with the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office Marijuana Enforcement Team (MET) served a search warrant in the area of Sunset Ridge in Blocksburg.

The warrant service stemmed from an investigation patrol deputies conducted after being alerted to an ongoing trespassing issue on the rural property. While on scene looking for the trespassing subjects, patrol deputies located two large areas actively being utilized for cultivating marijuana.

MET deputies were notified of the illicit cultivation and sought a search warrant for the property. During the service of the warrant, MET deputies located and eradicated 2,312 growing marijuana plants. No subjects were located on the scene. This investigation is ongoing.

Anyone with information about this case or related criminal activity is encouraged to call the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office at (707) 445-7251 or the Sheriff’s Office Crime Tip line at (707) 268-2539.

I liked the photos too. BUT, please change your email address. I have a rule about deleting commenters who have offensive email addresses for my own sanity. Yours is on the milder side but still I’d prefer something less evocative.

So a new name for one single worthless article, using an email that is similarly insulting as others, in such that you’ve created a rule that you’re using here, assuming someone will change their email address simply to comment a seemingly benign comment again….

Hmm.

And the comment hints at a history of readership.

Nothing to see here.

There is not a single-commentor-acting-as-30-commentors list.

Eh ? What’s offensive/evocative about JonnyDeps ?
Did a web search to see if it was a ‘secret word or phrase’… but I didn’t find one.

You can’t see his or anyone else’s email address on the front page but I can see yours, his and everyone else’s in my version. Sometimes I just can’t take having to look at [email protected] or some other much grosser version.
