On 06-06-2022 at 8:35 P.M., Mendocino County Sheriff’s Deputies were dispatched to the 3300 block of Holmes Ranch Road in Philo, CA, to investigate a domestic violence incident. Upon their arrival, Deputies met with fire and medical personnel. The Deputies contacted Margaret Farley, who displayed objective signs of alcohol intoxication and was uncooperative with their investigation.

The Deputies were able to locate an adult male, 51 years of age, with a wound to his eye.  The Deputies began their investigation and developed probable cause to believe Farley and the adult male were drinking alcohol together.  At one point they began arguing and Farley punched the adult male in the eye, causing a visible injury.  The Deputies observed the adult male displayed objective signs of alcohol intoxication as well.

The Deputies completed their investigation and arrested Farley for 273.5 PC (Felony Domestic Battery).  Farley was transported to the Mendocino County Jail where she was held in lieu of $25,000.00 bail.
