Sheriff’s Office: Heroin Sales Operation Discovered in House With Small Children

From the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office:

Selina Chavez-Robles
On 04-18-17 at around 6:00 P.M. Special Agents with the Drug Task Force, assisted by Officers from Eureka Police Department and Deputies from the Sheriff’s Office served a Humboldt County Superior Court search warrant at two residences located in the 1800 block of Allard Avenue in Eureka.
During the service of the warrant Special Agents located 22-year-old Selina Chavez Robles and 28-year-old Jonnathan Sabaria Garcia in one of the residences along with Robles’ two children, ages 5 and 3.

Jonnathan Sarabia-Garcia
While searching the residence Special Agents located approximately 1 ounce of heroin, digital scales, packaging material and approximately $22,000 in U.S. currency. The money was seized pursuant to asset seizure laws as it was believed to be proceeds from illegal narcotics sales.
Both Robles and Garcia were booked and housed at the Humboldt County Correctional Facility for possession of a narcotic for sales and child endangerment. Child Welfare Services was contacted and responded to the residence to place the children with a family member.
Several items of evidence were removed from the other residence, linking both homes to each other. No arrests were made from the second residence.
Anyone with information related to this investigation or other narcotics related crimes are encouraged to call the Humboldt County Drug Task Force at 707-444-8095 or the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office Tip Line at 707-268-2539.
