In the early morning hours of August 2nd, 2024, a Ukiah Police Department Officer was on routine patrol on  Talmage Road in Ukiah. The officer observed a Toyota Tundra in the parking lot of the Arco Gas Station that had numerous vehicle code violations, including registration that was several years expired. 

As the officer entered the parking lot to investigate the vehicle, he saw a female exit the driver’s side of the Tundra and walked hastily into the convenience store. The officer walked up to the Tundra and noticed a commercial quantity of marijuana on the front passenger’s seat, as well as drug paraphernalia strewn about the interior of the vehicle. 

The officer contacted the female driver of the Tundra inside the convenience store, and she was brought out to her vehicle to discuss the contraband that was in plain view. The female was later identified as Christina Simmons, a 33-year-old resident of Ukiah.

The officer began a probable cause search of the Tundra and located approximately one hundred and sixty (160) M-30 fentanyl pills inside Simmons’ purse. The M-30 fentanyl pills were later found to have a net weight of nearly one ounce, with a street value of approximately $1,200. The officer also located an additional portion of fentanyl, as well as drug paraphernalia. 

Simmons was placed under arrest for possession and transportation of a narcotic with the intent to distribute, as well as transportation and possession of marijuana for the purpose of sales and violation of probation.

  1. Talk about “Ridin’ Dirty”. You need to make a new career choice little sister.

    You’re still young enough to salvage your life. If you’re addicted to the Fenty yourself there’s still hope. Go get on the suboxone program so you can get off the hamster wheel.

    I also recommend a relationship with your Creator. Cry out to Him, He’s listening.

    Been there done that and I’m rooting for you, saying a prayer. You CAN turn this around with God’s help.

  2. Wow that weed looks like trash. Hardly worth the risk of transporting that worthless skrag.

    Anyone caught with fentanyl should be treated as a foreign agent or enemy combatant. Death penalty or indefinite detainment at an offshore military prison. At least slap them with hazardous materials felonies.

  3. Throw her ass into the slammer for an extended vacation for the fentanyl.
    The Herb should have been thrown into the compost pile for the worms to eat.
    Hard to imagine that there is still a market for that crap.
    Oil maybe but even that is a stretch.

  4. Pekerhead & Mendo Moron with their typical uplifting sentiments & completely rational problem solving solutions. You guys are so predictable & boring…..this is where you write your scathing retorts you both seem to thrive on. I already know what you say so I won’t be reading. Maybe others will be privileged to read your genius.

    • First off how did you know that I like to suck cock you fucking Homophobe!
      And don’t get your panties in a wadd your sleazy little hard drug dealing girlfriend should be out on bail or without bail by now.
      If not you can get your narcotics elsewhere.
      Try the Motel Six you little drug addled piece of shit.

  5. I wonder why I rarely post comments anymore? Because the comments section on Mendofever has become a cesspool of immature wannabe intellectuals. Like a bunch of bullies on a playground. You guys are all pathetic. The ones that chronically post their garbage just to stab each other in the back. You know who you are. I’ve never seen a more immature group of half literates in my life. And none of you have the balls to use your real name. I have given up on commenting for the most part. I just happened to read this comment section out of boredom really. You guys flunked second grade and can find no other way to entertain yourselves. Pray to a rock and ask for maturity in your lives. And then go to Mendocino College and enroll in English 12.
