Reports Describe Large Law Enforcement Convoy Moving Through Remote Southern Humboldt

Residents in southwestern Humboldt County reported seeing a sizable law enforcement convoy traveling along Mattole Road on Tuesday morning, with sightings beginning east of Honeydew and later, west, along the route toward Petrolia.
According to those who observed the activity, between 10 and 15 vehicles—some of them unmarked—were first spotted near Windy Nip Gap. Witnesses later saw the convoy heading west toward Petrolia. Eyewitnesses who contacted Redheaded Blackbelt said the group appeared to include vehicles associated with Fish and Wildlife as well as the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office.
The purpose of the operation remains unclear. Redheaded Blackbelt has reached out to the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office for information, but officials have not yet provided details regarding the nature of the incident or operation.
This is a developing story, and updates will be provided as more information becomes available.

OH NOOOO!!!! Pull your plants, everybody!!
Toys for Tots campaign?
I didn’t see anything about the marines in the article
I’m guessing that their sarcasm was lost on you.
Domestic terrorist spreading pain and suffering for your holiday cheer. they are totally obsessed with plants. too bad they don’t give that much attention to real crimes.
Round them up and move them out! Sick and tired of legal and nonlegal pot growers.
Can’t believe the old paranoid dope grower community is still functioning. That’s some funny shit. What a great way to live your life.
Imagine being paranoid about producing something that the state voted in favor of.
It’s crazy how something called “the legalization of marijuana” led to more laws and illegality.
That’s what the gullible called it! Should be more accurately called “the corporatization of marijuana”
Weell there is money to be made in fines.that is why it is the only crime ever punished. They don’t make a dime chasing anything else.
Believe it. Live and let live.
Clowns gonna clown.
Imagine living in a world where sattelite data is available every 8 days yet stoners still think “teh feds” are coming in via heli.
That’s what they don’t have any things to do! ?!! . they drive around trying to get a people to do something they can put a label on.
( I E. ) ; pot ; Pooching. Fishing Mexican ; el legal. Or
What ever I was bother
For not having a lite on my bike hell !! That’s what law enforcement is not for me or you they can’t get the big jobs sóooo.. G.R…
Yea total freedom good hours high pay fun people and no taxes, what a terrible way to live your life. Enjoy the rat race!
ICE, I’m sure.
What/who is left of fish and game after all the firings…or were the firings “Just” the Forest Service folk? I would hope that they only go after grows that are doing ecological damage and I am not naive enough to be entirely confident that is their focus …would be nice though. If ICE starts posing as Fish and Game then they’ve hit a new low; besides they don’t feel a need to even bother with such tactics – they just come in with masks unmarked, unbadged and do what they will.
if legal immigrants had more protections from abuse by their employers/visa holders we’d have fewer illegal immigrants for sure. Also America demands so much consumption that only slave labor can provide.
AMAZING that considering all of the unabated violent criminal activity in this area, you clowns STILL think it is ethical to report on law enforcement movements because “muh weed”.
One of these days an LE convoy is going to get ambushed, and you potheats will be in a world of hurt.
FAFO
Why would “potheats” ambush law enforcement? Stoners are loving life. Growers legal or not are already in a world of hurt. If I lived on this road I’d certainly like to know about 10-15 speeding vehicles racing up a one lane mountain road.” Muh socialist”
Exactly WHAT are you sick of? “many once-radical ideas (Social Security, minimum wage, public infrastructure) are now mainstream, while modern democratic socialists advocate for social safety nets and economic equality within a democratic framework”…
Playing the victim martyr scenario isn’t going to work. At this point given the lack of independent oversight of LE and on top of that how ICE is behaving, while I hope it doesn’t get to that point it is going to be on the verge of in not actual self defense if citizens strike back.
What makes martyrs and causes suffering among good LE (if they even dare to work among the others) is:
—Bad behaving LE
– our negligence to march in the streets, participate in local government, demand independent oversight and consequences
— alos we need to stop giving LE so much resposibility for our lack of civic duty and civil duty and stop dumping on them our addiction, houseless and mental health sufferers we refuse to invest in care for.
But hey we have our priorities and perks : celebrities with butt implants and we have giant cars and fast food entitlement and our own personal professional pizza ovens and air fyers and pasta makers and adults are busy playing video games and binge watching servers so to heck with the streets filling with elderly, children, the abused and suffering…been like that in India and some other places so here we go no matter our weath we made poor choices and are left with what we invested in and what we did not.
Mattole valley resident wondering where all the unabated violent crime is….. I sure ain’t hearing about it
We got the warning on our local grapevine this morning out here in Mattole. Always appreciated. You never know who they might be after. I don’t guess many people think they’re coming in to bust weed, though i suppose anything’s possible.
We’ve had more than a couple of “wanted” psycho whack jobs come out here thinking it’s a good place to escape the law. Not! You’d be better off in a bustling city… you stick out like a sore thumb here. Anyway, law enforcement could be after someone like that; if so, sic ’em! (But please drive reasonably while on your search. I don’t care who you are or what agency you represent, you cannot drive like a madman or like you’re on a freeway on these roads. No, no, no.)
Yeah only locals should be able to drive carelessly!!
I disagree! They should not, nobody should, drive like a bat out of hell on these roads!
Sounds great keep it up boys and girls!!
I would like to thank the EQ task force for their quick response and successful actions which abated the “Big One” which otherwise would have wreaked havoc across the North Coast region. I appreciate that they have the wherewithal and resources to do so. And I hope they don’t mind this post, considering how they humbly keep their heads down, never seeking attention nor credit.
Bad boys bad boys, whatcha gonna dooo-oooooo //
whatcha gonna do when they come for you??
