Another day, Another Raid for Sugarleaf
Though Friday marks the end of a long scary and tragic week for the communities of central California, it's only the Middle of a week long coming for Sugarleaf Rastafarian Church as this marks the third consecutive day of experiencing police raids on their illegally declared "Church farms" immediately proceeding day 1 which would be the shooting of 2 police and death of one of their church member/workers.
For those unaware, the shooting happened in Yuba County. The following day a farm they had in Calavaras county was raided, causing the arrest of 9 church member/workers and the death of 6,000 or more plants according to police. Today, another of their "church farms" was raided in Merced county California resulting in another arrest, and more destroyed cannabis plants.
Now, as we get into Today's events for Sugarleaf leaders, it's important that you know they were first awaken at their home to the knock of sheriff deputies who were there to officially serve both Charles Edward "Eddy" Lepp and his new wife Heidi Lepp with a Temporary Restraining Order on behalf of stalking victim Shelby Lucero, whom the Lepp's along with their "Friend" Kelly "Kevai" Floyd, the couple's "four legged individual" Lucky Lepp and at least a few "goon looking" men had terroristically stalked just maybe a week before, and bragged about it publicly including at the federal courthouse in Sacramento.
Though authorities were also looking to serve Floyd, whom was not present at the location, Heidi Lepp, according to a video she recorded and then publicly released via social media jumped quick offering to help law enforcement get Floyd served, offering not only a contact telephone number and city she was currently residing in, but even going so far as to offer to serve Floyd her TRO for police personally herself. Obviously the latter of her offers were respectfully declined, as you can see for yourself on the link provided immediately below, it's presumed that Lepp did provide them with at least a contact number on her proclaimed "Best Friend" and partner in crime. Here is the link to That video again for Your convenience:
So, as everyone paying attention to Sugarleaf, whether it be via main stream media, social media, or here know that thus far, this part of California encompasses the central point of Sugarleaf Rastafarian Church. Sugarleaf came to it's frutation just a few short months ago but has already publicly announced having established "Over 100 churches in less than 3 months" and have announced dozens at a time since.
Sugarleaf presented itself as being legally protected to set up and do the things she would do under the "Protection" of Oklevueha Native American Church, but Sugarleaf quickly gave just cause for question by ONAC and during an investigation began finding dishonorable conduct and possibly illegal actions and so as the investigation continued, Sugarleaf began getting representations when went blantently ignored and ultimately leading them into denouncement as well as disassociation between ONAC and Sugarleaf publicly once-and-for-all, just 2 days before the beginning of what could well be the end of Sugarleaf Rastafarian Church and hopefully the Lepp's respect in the cannabis community as well.
So as we fast-forward through the shooting at their "Yuba Trees Farm", leaving two police shot and one of their member's dead, and no word on the plants it all sparked ove and the following day's raid in Calavasas where 9 of their members were arrested (Who didn't know who they were even Farming the cannabis for in the first place upon arrest) and the 6,00 plus plant bust, into Today's RAID in Merced County California AFTER having been awaken to their service of their restraining orders as you've also just had the ability to see for yourself above, here is the link to our media source on this for your convenience who covered the Sugarleaf "Raid of the Day" adding to the victims arrested and more destroyed sacred medicine sacrament:
According to this source as you can see, law enforcement officers (LEO) as their called by the locals, served a search warrant of a home they describe as having been transformed into an indoor cannabis cultivation operation site in Winton, and too both indoor and outdoor illegal "farm sites" in Delhi which turned up more than 400 plants total combined.
According to the report, Jorge Luis Lopez Urena, age 30, who is a declared resident of the Mexican state of Sinaloa, was in the Winston home on Friday deputies said and so was subsequently arrested. This is also an interesting twist for those closely watching Sugarleaf as church leader Heidi Lepp is a strong publicly outspoken supporter of President Donald Trump, who is geared to keep illegal immigrants out of the nation, especially Mexicans. Media report that ultimately Lopez Urena was arrested on charges including suspicion of growing more cannabis plants than are legally allowed to be grown in the county, intent to sell the cannabis, aka "Marijuana", and a felony theft charge of electricity as it's believed that more than $2,000.00 was pirated illegally for the grow operation.
