DEA to raid Humboldt County???

6 page thread leading up to the actual raids. Good pics, arts...

Feds are HERE in HUMBOLDT NOW!
* This is the culmination of a two-year investigation.
* This is a bust of “large-scale commercial grows.” NOT medical marijuana.
* Agents from a variety of federal and state organizations — including the IRS and the Postal Service –will be serving 27 warrants.
* He referred to it, perhaps tellingly, as a “commercial grow” — singular. This despite the fact that they are traveling to multiple locations throughout the county.
* The investigation was initiated by a state agency — the California Dept. of Justice. The feds were brought in, he said, because of the financial intricacies of the investigation.
* Why today? Matthews asked. “Gotta pick a day,” the spokesman said.

The U.S. Postal Service and Internal Revenue Service were also participating. Law enforcement does not plan to file charges against anyone at this stage, he said. Agents will continue to search the properties for hours or even days,

"If they catch 'em going south with a suitcase full of cash,
the police department just paid for its budget for the year."
-- Jack Fishman, attorney

Holy Shit Batman! The FEDS invaded Humboldt!

The goal is to collect evidence, look for evidence of crimes and things that have been purchased with illegal proceeds to support ongoing prosecution efforts, he said.

Say No To Green Harvest

More than 98 percent of all of the marijuana plants seized by law enforcement in the United States is feral hemp not cultivated cannabis, according to newly released data by the Drug Enforcement Administration's (DEA) Domestic Cannabis Eradication/Suppression Program and the Sourcebook of Criminal Justice Statistics.
