Murder in our Hunting Grounds
« on: June 21, 2006, 06:45:46 PM »
I picked the folowing item off the Net tonight.  This is our old friend Law Dogs' part of the Country.  A check of newpaper article's from the area make me believe this is more of the planting by illegal aliens.  If you recall a property owner and his 10 year old son were shot by a Mexican guarding a garden East of Sacramento, California a few years back.  This is not the first shootout in a garden in and around the Mendocino National Forest.

The impacted area is the North end of Zone A, and the Southend of Zone B1 and B3. The bow season opens on July 8, and runs thru July 30 in the A Zone.  The general season opens August 12 and runs until September 24th.  The General Season starts Sept. 16th in B1 and B3.  The Mexican growers normally suppliment their food supply with vension.


SAFETY ALERT
MENDOCINO NATIONAL FOREST
June 20, 2006

Marijuana growing operations have intensified and become more sophisticated for this field season. Law Enforcement personnel have already eradicated nearly 70,000 marijuana plants from the Forest in the last four weeks. Saturday, June 17, two men were shot and killed execution style near Covelo after they were involved in what law enforcement officials believe was a raid or pirating of marijuana at a large growing operation. The men suspected of the killings may have traveled onto the Mendocino National Forest, Covelo Ranger District.

Covelo Ranger District Restriction of Field Administrative Duties

Because Law Enforcement is unclear of the location of the suspects in the execution killings near Covelo, all official administrative work activities and travel through the Covelo Ranger District are suspended until further notice. This suspension of work and travel applies to all Mendocino National Forest employees and other National Forest employees from other units. If Mendocino employees know of Forest Service employees from other units who are working or traveling through Covelo Ranger District, they are to inform them of the work and travel suspension. The suspension will be lifted as soon as Law Enforcement officials feel the suspect(s) have been caught or have left the area.

Covelo Ranger District Restriction of Incident Management Activities

Forest Service Law Enforcement Officers will respond to all wildland fire or all risk dispatches to accompany resources responding to incidents. Forest Service Law Enforcement Officers will be stationed at Covelo until Law Enforcement officials feel the suspect(s) have been caught or have left the area.

Forest Service Field Employee Check-in Communication Plan

All Mendocino NF and other Forest Service employees will follow the Forest’s check-in procedure with their supervisor for field work on the Forest. With the increase in criminal activity, marijuana growing and link to organized crime, employees need to be aware that the growers are actively camping, working and transporting materials, food and marijuana on the National Forest. If an employee locates a marijuana plantation or observes suspicious activity, leave the area immediately and report the activity immediately to the Mendocino Dispatch Center. Follow the guidelines in the Forest-wide Job Hazard Analysis for Field Employee Check-in Communication Plan.

Use Predator drones with thermal sensing to locate the scum.
Next setp:
Send in the Special Forces in the dead of night.
Problem will be fixed by sun up.
Oh wait....we can't violate their rights to commit crimes on
Federal Lands. Silly me.

We have some several units that could do the job.
But as I said, this would not be politically correct, etc...
A situation like this seems a bit above the normal Law Enforcement
capability to me. Unusual situations should be dealt with using
"unusual" means. Of course, that's not the way it's done in this
country anymore.

Another link to the Murders.

Word is that a few years ago law enforcement asked people to provide information on activities involving Mexicans in the area.  When the campsites are found around gardens in is clear who the growers are.  Formal compliants were filed against the officers for profiling people of hispanic orgin.

Around here the hunters are looking for something to do in the off season.  All they have to do is open the season and set a liberal bag limit.  They could solve the problem in no time.

You are messing around with the county's main source of income when you mess with the "evil weed" in that part of Calif.  Deer love the stuff.  Deer enjoy the buzz as much as those who smoke it do.

   Growers in that area have been known to put out anti-deer devices, (12 guage, 00 buck, trap guns) so if you wanna play soldier, be it known you'll be playing for keeps.
   THC remains in the animal for up to a month.  If you are a person who gets a drug test at work,  I would hate to get fired because I had venison for dinner the night before.

The word is out that the killings were execution style.  This was not a stand-up gunfight, the only difference in this case and the drug killings in Northern Baja was the victims were not beheaded.  The truth be known large gardens are grown all over California.  So no matter where you collect your deer it may have been eating happy weed.  If you run across a sick deer be aware that the growers are putting out a lot of DECON.  The deer will eat it and it will carry in the food change.

California has enough problems with the amount of people in the state.  All it needs is to loose revenue because you could get sick from venison.

The state is in the process of burning down again, so maybe the weeds will get fried....

Covelo is a scary place to be to begin with.  My dad and I hunted over west of Ukiah a few years ago and viewed what appered to be an CHRISTmas tree across the river (700 yds away) That next morning while in a tree stand a helicopter started going round and round and round where we were.  After a while it was apparent that hunting was shot so we met up and watched through bino's with amazement that it was a pot farm complete with water lines, and a garden to keep the "gardners" fed.  The plants were roughly 6' high and the cops took 2 giant truckloads out along with countless helicopter loads.  Later that night a truck drove up to the farm, a few guys got out and we could hear them yelling "its ok! COME BACK!". 

Scary stuff.
