The following is a press release from the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office. The information has not been proven in a court of law and any individuals described should be presumed innocent until proven guilty:
On August 7th at approximately 11:05 PM, The Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office Communications Center received several calls that came in second hand about a person that had been shot in the area of the 26000 block of Redwood Creek Road, west of Willits. Due to the remoteness of the location and the difficulty finding it, one of the callers provided driving instructions by accessing the area via Irmulco Road. Mendocino County Sheriff’s Deputies, with the provided directions and use of mapping software, were able to find the location after approximately 30 minutes from being dispatched. Upon arrival, deputies located the victim who was suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Due to the remoteness of the location, a Mendocino County Sheriff’s Deputy transported the victim to a location near Highway 20 where he was transferred to a ground ambulance. During the transport, the deputy was able to obtain suspect information as well as a description of the suspect’s vehicle and last known direction of travel. The Sheriff’s Deputy broadcast the suspect and vehicle information over the radio to notify responding law enforcement. The victim was ultimately transported via air ambulance to an out of county trauma center.
Shortly after this occurred, a California Highway Patrol Officer noticed a vehicle driving with no headlights in the area of Main Street and Sherwood Road in Willits. Noticing the vehicle also matched the description of the suspect vehicle, the Highway Patrol Officer attempted a traffic enforcement stop. The driver failed to yield and a short vehicle pursuit ensued, ending when the driver stopped and fled on foot in the 24800 block of North Highway 101. The driver was described as a Hispanic male adult and was last seen running into the wooded area west of Highway 101. The vehicle was found to be an Acura, registered to a subject from Madera, California. Mendocino County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to the location and continued the investigation. An unserialized assault weapon was located in the suspect’s vehicle, along with evidence that tied the driver of the vehicle to the shooting scene.
The shooting scene on Redwood Creek Road was found to be a large illegal cannabis operation consisting of multiple large hoop houses. During the investigation, an additional unserialized assault weapon was located as well as over 1,000 growing cannabis plants. The illegal cannabis was eradicated during the processing of the crime scene.
Mendocino County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to the out of county hospital and interviewed the shooting victim who was in stable condition. It was discovered that the victim and the suspect were staying together at the remote property, however they were both from the Madera California area. The suspect was identified as Miguel Rosas Camacho, who is approximately 30 years of age, however no other personal identifying information is available at the time of this press release. During the investigation, Mendocino County Sheriff’s Detectives discovered that Camacho drives the white Ford Mustang vehicle depicted. Camacho is known to frequent and is deeply involved in the illegal cannabis and drug trafficking in and around Round Valley and other parts of Mendocino County.
Camacho is aware he is wanted and believed to be on the run. Although the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office located two unserialized assault rifles associated to this investigation, Camacho is still considered to be armed and dangerous. Any persons with knowledge of Miguel Rosas Camacho or his current whereabouts are encouraged to contact the Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office at 707-463-4086 or call the Tip line at 707-234-7463.
Thank you.
Time to end the sanctuary state nonsense and repeal the california values act. Get ICE into Mendocino County right now, or embrace the reality of rampant hispanic gangs. It’s not just a Covelo issue anymore, and the problem is clearly metastasizing if the cartels are operating on redwood fucking creek. Oh wait, they’re already spreading in fort bragg, too. Betcha nobody gets charged with environmental crimes tied to this grow because it’s hard to track human filth from “madera county”.
Both of these scumbags from “madera” should be sent to an offshore prison at the very least. Time to lock down the border, clean house, and go to war with the cartels.
Madera is a county in California.
Aren’t you sharp! I bet you’re from “madera” too.
My point is these guys aren’t from “madera”. They are from “mexico”. Get it?
Miguel Rosas Macho Camacho.
Armed and dangerous and on the run.
On the run to the southern border and back to Juarez.
Todd, I just gotta know, do you know where he was born? Where he was raised? How he was raised? Why does his ethnicity merit these responses from you Todd? Something tells me that the entirety of the company you keep is milquetoast, wonder bread, saltine, unseasoned, palm colored.
Sometimes kids are just bad eggs man, and every time, believe it or not, it has absolutely nothing to do with race. By always denoting the person’s skintone, country of assumed origin, you’re really just telling on yourself.
Seemingly, its not the person’s theoretical immigration status that has anything to do with the crime. Trust me, there are a LOT of episodes of COPS, and most of them are chock full of every race creed and color, but mostly chock full of gringos, because theres a lot of us, and some of us (shocker!) are criminals.
I take it you’ve never seen the Godfather, GoodFellas, Casino, etcetera?
You sure are Johnny-on-the-spot when it comes to making excuses for Mexican death dealers. What’s your affiliation?
My husband is of Mexican descent but was born and raised in California. If you saw him, you’d be spewing the same garbage based on his skin color. Shame on you and your ignorance. But since we’re talking about it, I’m pretty sure that most death dealers in this area are Caucasian.
Is your husband a gang member? Drug dealer? Violent criminal? If not then just shut the hell up.
And who do you think supplies the hard drugs to Mendocino and the rest of California, Jen? It all comes from mexico! The cash from the drug sales goes back to mexico, along with stolen firearms. Let’s not even talk about the environmental crimes and toxic product churned out by these cartel grows. Human trafficking and modern indentured servitude. Of course you wouldn’t care about the consequences of any of that if you’re down with the homies “in the game”.
Don’t expect me to care if your husband becomes a victim of the drug gangs, I guess.
Just a wee little authoritarian, xenophobic shadow of a man that refuses to learn from history and certainly doesn’t espouse Christian values.
Sad little fucking bigot Tom thinks he so important and smart.
Stupid doesn’t know when it’s stupid.
Wee little Peckerham?
Now them is fightin words!
Some day you might understand the distinction between race and nationality.
Good thing us “mexican thugs” know your name, much easier to find…. your a retard
You don’t seem to recognize the distinction.
You don’t seem to recognize the distinction.
This comment sections is full of fucking stupid idiots crying over drug use and firearms
Because this county is full of pot heads and psychotics who don’t know how to use a fucking gun properly because this state legislation is immoral and giving criminals like this motherfucker the right to own a firearm gives him the right to shoot whoever he wants, when he wants.
Oh, And some of the drugs supply also gets transferred elsewhere, not only from Mexico, but from here in the US, Canada, Columbia and China, where Fentanyl, Cocaine and Opium are produced, so don’t blame the Mexicans for their drug production getting transferred up here you fucking racist right-winged Peckerface.
This cunthole never gives up on arguing over drugs and firearms
How do you know their from Mexico when it clearly said they are from Madera Peckerhead being Hispanic doesn’t mean you’re illegal or from mexico. But you are clearly the descendant of Columbus.
El Salvador President has the answer.
Did you undercook your TV dinner again Todd? Is your underarmor golf shirt tucked too tight into your size 46 dockers khaki shorts? Did the strap on your tevas give way to your bulbous diabetic foot in calf high whities? Did the sewage backup in your 1 bedroom granny unit you rent from your aunt? Did the mail order bride you ordered turn out to be male? Is it yet another rerun of “NCIS who gives a fuck”? Has your toenail fungus & plaque psoriasis kept you indoors for yet another summer? Have you stained another pack of white T’s with your cheeto stained fingers? Do Mexicans threaten your nonexistent existence with their presence in your trailer park community? Your a cunt Todd? You always have & always will be a cunt!
Ha ha ha ha. Oh God, that’s one of the best responses I’ve ever ever heard of anything ever in my life. On this platform or any other. Well done.
Your prejudice is showing. It is sad to see an uneducated bigot like yourself struggle with the English language, both reading and writing. Maybe someday you’ll produce something other than profanity laced homophobic self-hate. I’m sure your mother is real proud of you, dawg.
Ladies and Gentlemen, we have a racist in the forum trolling himself and others, do not feed the trolls! Especially Trolling Todd who peckers his own mother every night!!
That’s a Hilarious response to T.P. I got a good chuckle about a chucklehead ?
Todd, the reason people still grow black market marijuana is cause it’s still illegal enough to fetch a price in other states.
Legalize the heck out of it. There’s a reason we don’t have black market alcohol gangs anymore is cause you can buy cheap liquor in any store.
Todd, try not commenting for 1 week so you can understand addiction. If you can’t stop yourself from typing then how do you expect an addict to stop using?
Sorry, kiddo, but that’s just a crappy analogy. Isn’t 2am past your bedtime? Awful late to be up trolling the comments section.
If you’re going to defend violent Mexican drug dealers you’re going to have to do better than that.
I’m saying we wouldn’t have this illegal grow problem if it was legal in other states. Anyone who thinks these big black market grows are selling to local dispensaries is dillusional.
Does no one remember the history of the gangs of alcohol prohibition? People killed over alcohol money? Why Californian’s aren’t making pleas to people in illegal states to grow their own weed or to stop purchasing blood weed is beyond me. Dry states are the problem.
Before you go on and post bigotry and racist remarks, I suggest you do your research on drug manufactures being transported in the US and come out and fight like a real man.
Nothin’ worse than a disingenuous blowhard. I bet you get invited to lots of parties!
Maybe pick a better cause to fight for other than violent, drug-dealing foreigners.
And a “real man” wouldn’t be afraid to comment under a “real name”. So scurry back under your rock, dawg. I’m done engaging you until I see an improvement in your tone.
What the fuck does that mean when you say I get invited to parties?? Are you some wannabe frat boy who chooses to party hard but always get uninvited??
So yeah come back on here with a better, non-racist attitude and quit spreading your right-wing bullshit on here
I bet you’re some little white and nerdy amateur who wants to join the gangsters but they rejected you because of your race.
Where have you been bro?
“It’s time”
???????? Lol it’s BEEN GONE FOR MANY YEARS DUMBASS
*Long TIME coming
Excuse my typos lol
Dude, you’re fucking horrible at typing, take a typing class and then come back and post comments because the grammar and punctuation is equalivent to a 8 year old
These big illegal grows need to be taken out. They are so very easily seen from the sky and a quick database check would show that they are illegal. These articles that come out that brag about taking out 20000 Marijuana plants are a joke. That is hardly the tip of the iceberg. And yes LOTS of these grows are run by Mexicans. Legals, illegals, cartel.
Oh great of corse he’s in and outta Covelo. Of you’re gonna shoot somebody you probably been to or coming back from Covelo. Sad and sadder is all the kids got left up here. Can’t believe all the garbage this place is bringin in. No wonder we hearing gunshots all night out on the Rez. Never was like this before but seems like it will never end. Whats left? What’s next? Nobody knows and nobody cares.
He probably workin for Boss Hog Lewis and Roscoe P Robbono replanting after their loss to to th law.
The illegal grows are taking it to dry states. If other states would stop pretending their people don’t smoke, and import it fairly or grow it themselves, then these big grows would dwindle. Demand that dry states legalize to protect the young men of our county.
Sigh.
Come on, editors. We know you need to generate clicks and pull eyeballs, but calling this “a Willits cannabis farm” is stretching credibility past the breaking point.
In what world is this place miles and miles and miles beyond the far edge of even Brooktrails, anything to do with “Willits” per se?
The title makes it sound like this shooting occurred at one of the several cannabis growing operations right here in Little Lake Valley, which though not official could also be reasonably referred to as “the Willits valley.”
Way out in BFE back-of-beyond, past the end of Sherwood road, is not Willits. Remove “Willits” from the title, or failing that, be less clickbaity in future choice of titles. This is the second time this sort of thing has gone down (in MendoFever article titles) in as many months.
As Nancy Reagan said, “Just Say No” to clickbait titles.
Also, as Melania says, “Be Best!” (Amazing motto, that. Keep it simple!)
I just knew as soon as I read this story, that peckerham guy & mendo maverick were going to be the first commentators. I was right! I dont understand & am shocked how they arent blocked from spewing all their hate & racism. Isnt that one of the rules on this page? I wonder why they are able to get away with it. Also, I know everyone else sees it & is just as sick of them as me. Have a great weekend everyone except them 2 guys … 🙂
Learn the difference between race and nationality. I know that’s a lot to ask of you, but it’s good to challenge yourself once in a while. Let’s see if you can do it!
Race? You mean melanin dispersal for sun protection? And nationality? You mean what imaginary lines are we born between?
Maybe Todd, start thinking in terms of childhood trauma. I’m very curious about yours. Usually people who like to provoke fights grew up around a lot of fighting and need fighting to feel normal. Did you grow up in toxic family stress Todd? Do you need attention? Even negative attention is better than no attention to a traumatized child. Even getting anonymous strangers to put their attention on you , must feel great.
Everyone, if we stop answering Todd, ignore his comments like a fart in the wind, we might save Todd
Virtue signaling progressive fools like yourself IGGY who are apologetic towards criminals and label anyone that you disagree with as a RACIST and use the word so often it has lost all of its substance.
There is nothing RACIST about my original comment but I was generalizing.
It’s true that this dangerous thug could be on his way back to Mexico or Madera but he could also still be somewhere in the county.The bottomline is that it doesn’t fucking matter where he is.
We all have our prejudices and one of mine is that I hate predatory criminals like Camacho and company.
And if you are anything like every other Progressive loon that I have known in my long life you probably hate cops and would most likely secretly celebrate if this piece of shit shot and killed a deputy sheriff or CHP officer or a game warden.
I have lived in Mendocino County since I was seven and I’m now seventy three and the two closest friends that I’ve ever had in my life and growing up in Ukiah were Indians and that included their extended families.
And I have also had some trusted Mexican friends and associates as well.
So take your RACIST label and shove it up your ASS!
Well said.
I will add that SOMEBODY is harboring this criminal and aiding his escape. No way this bad hombre is still out in the woods eating berries. It’s likely he has already been given a ride to the taco stand and onward to his next destination. Hopefully the authorities have this guy’s DNA and fingerprints on file, or else he’ll probably just change his identity. That is, if he hasn’t already run back to Mexico. On the flip-side he might be on the run from his own people, depending on exactly who he shot.
While others argue over ethnicity…Mendocino County citizens are to blame. The legalization caused a rampant illegal grow because no one calls the cops now, because all they get is a fine. No consequences of the environmental destruction or the human lifestyle of drug cartel. Because it’s not a crime if goes on unnoticed until something like this happens and the police are called in. All citizens that love pot and legalized it for the better world for this county…you are creating addiction and the environment for cartel…all on your
own. Look in the mirror. Make excuses. The easy money, the fancy car, the dream of material stuff, making oneself superior over others, isn’t worth one human life. Until citizens stop pointing fingers….this cannabis lie, of legal business, will make things safer, will continue.
Somehow alcohol grapes are a legit business, and alcohol is fucking terrible and a major source of death.
This place is hardly a major cannabis grow. It’s always had greenhouses of the crappiest sort though. There is a massive in-a-stream-bed garbage dump. They also pump water illegally from Redwood Creek, which has salmon. Long tweaker and drug history to the property and the house has been mined of copper. It’s a very isolated and a dangerous place, but the cops have never cared. The locals are batshit crazy and armed to the teeth, but it is not in Willits.
Lafever, maybe you should clean up the racism in this section, we have spammers persistently spreading racism around all because the suspect happens to be Hispanic.
You motherfuckers would not say shit like this if the suspect was a white boy. There are too many bigots posting racist and judgement remarks about this guy all because they are too afraid to get out into broad daylight and express their opinions out in the public.
Educate yourself on the difference between race and nationality. I won’t hold my breath for that though. You could focus on actual racists- like hispanic race-based gangs. But no, you prefer to cry over made-up racism while you run cover for the worst criminals. People like you undermine any real value or meaning the word “racism” might have.
You can keep changing your handle, but your profane, verbose outbursts are easy to identify.
You’re just racist towards Hispanics because a Mexican street gang beat you up in their neighborhood. And now you have a personal vendetta towards them, no need to take it out in the comment section, get the help you need my friend
Find me an article about a “white” criminal and I’ll comment just the same. Equal opportunity. It is not my fault hispanics, usually gang-affiliated, seem to account for a disproportionate amount of the crimes reported on this website. Go ahead and check the booking log any day of the week. Not too many AB, crips, or KKK getting busted around here anymore.
Most of the “white” guys n girls you see in the booking logs are low-level users strung out on drugs supplied by mexican cartels and street gangs. Eliminating the drug gangs=fewer junkies=less crime.
So I’m going to call out serious crimes as I see them. If the criminal is part of a hispanic gang or cartel I am going to address those facts as I wish. You can get butt-hurt and cuss and whine all you want, but you’ll never be able to argue against facts, dawg.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend, and try to stay out of the booking log, dawg!
Okay… so according to the demographics of race in the booking log is not always accurate, there is bias and racial profiling included that leads to instant arrest on a count of racism from certain law enforcement. If you look at the demographics from each platform regarding race. It’s not always going to be all the same. In the big cities, such as Oakland, Chicago and Detroit where certain races, especially Hispanics and blacks get instantly profiled by the police, there’s no sense of equality or equity on a count of racial bias, which explains by the statistics of these races are off the charts in the booking log which makes it not always legitimate.
A lot of cops are shitheads and are so right-wing which manifests their racism towards their suspects, and that’s what’s the issue with this fucking country, is that all these conservative henchmen support Trump, including half of the police force.
So you tell me to check out the booking log and then tell me to stay away from it, so I’m not sure what you want me to do but I studied the booking log and I could tell right off the fucking bat that is is not completely accurate, nor will it ever be accurate with all this racism going on.
So if I were you I would study the statistics of the booking log and think outside the box about it and not just go by the log itself because you have to be pretty fucking stupid and racist to believe what you see is true off the charts.
So you can either be a bigot prick and argue with me with false information that you believe is true or we can just end this conversation now and move on.
Did it take you all morning to type out all that dog shit? To be honest I didn’t even bother to read any of it.
Well then you’re too lazy and uneducated. Perhaps you couldn’t follow along. Let me summarize it in one sentence for you… “THE BOOKING LOG IS A LIE”
Tell your tweaker friends to stop buying fent first.
what I wouldn’t give to go back to the 70s. Good old fashion hippies in the mountains away from town away from the valley growing the weed bomb ass organic hard work labor weed once a year have a harvest party everybody gather celebrate eat, and drink and have good times away from Town and someone’s homes you know all this legalization and all this crap is just ran the mountains of Mendocino county into the ground and gave it a bad name. I miss my home county tremendously, but not the new and improved Medicine county
Ha! Lol I don’t proof read
Not medicine…… MENDO
Some of y’all are written of in the Bible. Seriously!
Go read Matthew 24, focus on versus 12-14, but definitely read the entire chapter. Reading it in a couple different versions will most definitely be helpful.
Because this comment section has become so raunchy and hateful, I don’t plan on reading this “rag” any longer. Adios …
To each ones own LOCAL that is certainly your prerogative to do so.
A lot of people claim that we live in a democracy but actualy it’s more of a constitutional republic and certainly not a theocracy.
I for one will miss your short sermons and words of encouragement because it might help a few people.
Personaly speaking I studied the Bible for awhile with the Jehovahs Witnesses when I was twenty one and I feel that it made a better person out of me.
But that being said it also left me more confused than the dangerously potent double dipped blotter acid that was circulating in and around Ukiah at the time and myself and others consumed too much of.
I have my own personal relationship with the higher power and creator and will take my chances I don’t need to read any scriptures.
But thanks and God Bless.
Its SO COOL to watch local lib turds killing each other off, overdosing, playing hide.the cucumber up the backside and.everything else moronic mendo cino numb nuts do.
Like you’re doing the same thing because you’re afraid to get punched in the face as well as all you Mendo motherfuckers do is hide in the screen and post hate and rants about a topic
Sounds like some nut bag doesnt get his salad tossed often
Lol what a joke…..everything so off topic and personal. Covelo and surrounding areas do not call police NOT because of catch release….really ? If you read any comments on any crime post it’s because they hate cops , do not want to call, but still want them to do job. Which is impossible.
Everyone’s priorities are screwed up. To say Marijuana doesn’t kill or cause crime is also ridiculous. Since it’s become legal it appears violent crime involving it has gone up. Now because illegal grows are being permitted to run next to residential areas I fear innocents are going to suffer. But none of that matters right? Only things that matter is if someone god forbid called them Mexican or illegal.
But don’t you see, mexicans work the alcohol grapes and pears of our county. Why is that safe and legal? How is Mexican worked marijuana different? It’s different because it’s illegal in others states but those states still import OUR county’s weed illegally because guess what? They smoke it! White kids! Upper class White kids from dry states SMOKE WEED! And their parents!!
It’s not the weed that causes crime! It’s the money it still fetches from dry states.
How is this not obvious!! Tell those dry states to stop pretending they don’t like weed!!
It’s not racism if you hate everyone equally
