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 09-18-2024 at about 8:30 P.M., Mendocino County Sheriff’s Office deputies were dispatched to a report of a male being held at gunpoint, by his girlfriend, in the 13000 block of Mountain House Road in Hopland, CA.
Deputies arrived on scene and contacted the male who identified himself as Michael Giles. Giles told deputies while driving into Mendocino County, his girlfriend became paranoid and said they were being followed. Giles said his girlfriend shined a flashlight at him from behind, and he believed she was pointing a pistol at him. Giles never actually saw a pistol, but feared for his safety and pulled over. Giles was able to walk away from his vehicle and contacted law enforcement for assistance.
While speaking with Giles, he gave deputies permission to look inside his converted school bus for the pistol. While looking for the firearm, deputies located a large quantity of psilocybin mushrooms packaged in mylar bags. Deputies also located unpackaged psilocybin mushrooms, scales, and additional unused mylar bags.
In total, deputies seized about 700 grams (1.54 pounds) of psilocybin mushrooms (picture attached).
At the conclusion of their investigation, deputies determined there was no pistol nor was a pistol ever pointed at Giles.
Giles was ultimately arrested for the charges of 11378 H&S (Possession of a Controlled Substance for Sales) and 11379(a) H&S (Transportation of a Controlled Substance for Sales).
Giles was ultimately transported the Mendocino County Jail where he was to be held in lieu of $100,000.00 bail.
I want some of those shrooms.
So did the cops…it doesn’t make sense that he essentially called them on himself.
Sometimes the trash takes itself out. Good riddance to bad garbage.
I think it’s the universe’s way of telling them to break up.
Damn. Called cops on self. Must have been some good shrooms ? !! Lmfaoo
Krazy….. And they never mention the female’s name…. Weird…….
What a dumbass. Consuming too much of his own product.
