As Fresno Resistance co-founder Alfred Aldrete awoke from uneasy dreams one morning last month, he found himself the focus of community gossip and, he believes, a target of the local police department.
Aldrete and a small group of volunteers escorted about 50 high school students on a walkout in protest of immigration enforcement last month in the city of Clovis, population 128,000, where Donald Trump won every precinct in the 2024 presidential election – some with more than 70% of the vote.
During the mile-long walk, a police officer asked Aldrete for his name, date of birth and phone number.
“He really did the old, ‘We can do this the easy way or we can do this the hard way,’ ” Aldrete said. “And they weren’t stopping any of these (counterprotesters) who were driving by, smogging, throwing water or yelling s — . But they did stop me and two of the other adults.”
The next morning, the Clovis Police Department announced it was considering charging as many as six adults with a crime under Section 272 of the California Penal Code, which forbids adults from inducing students into truancy.
Police have not arrested anyone in connection with the protest, and the Fresno County District Attorney hasn’t filed any charges. Still, Aldrete is anticipating being charged because he was stopped and questioned by the police.

The walkout on Feb. 10 was part of a national protest weeks after federal immigration enforcement agents shot and killed ICU nurse Alex Pretti in Minnesota. But only a handful of police departments in the country have threatened criminal charges against adults who escorted the students during the protests: Clovis and the Los Angeles Police Department.
The LAPD issued a warning after school walkouts culminated in a protest outside the Edward R. Roybal Federal Building in downtown LA.
“Any adult who collects or picks up a child and transports them to participate in any illegal activities may be responsible for Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor and is subject to arrest and prosecution,” the warning read.
So far, no one has been arrested or prosecuted.
The Clovis Police Department went further than LAPD by publicly stating it’s investigating a few specific people for potential charges, without naming them.
The law enforcement agencies are citing a code that’s most often used to prevent chronic truancy, called inducing the delinquency of a minor. The Fresno County District Attorney’s Office has filed about 20 such charges each year for at least the last five years. Those charges, said spokesperson Taylor Long, are usually related to harboring runaways, providing alcohol to minors or involving minors in other crimes, like theft.
Nationally, students have faced suspensions because of the walkouts, but it’s rare to see adults threatened with charges associated with the walkouts outside of California.
In Pennsylvania, prosecutors are reviewing footage of Quakertown’s police chief putting a 15-year-old girl in what appeared to be a chokehold during a school walkout. In Texas, state Attorney General Ken Paxton said he will investigate teachers in three school districts where students participated in walkouts.

Aldrete runs the Fresno Resistance group with his twin brother. He’s been out of work as a heating, ventilation and air conditioning technician since late last year. The protest movement is, for the time being, his vocation.
The question at the heart of the investigation is about the adults’ involvement. Were the students themselves lured into participating in a walkout, or did they organize on their own? Can students younger than 18 make that decision for themselves? And how does the school board overseeing its districts define the line between students’ right to free expression and the schools’ duty to protect their kids?
Despite repeated requests by CalMatters, no member of the Clovis Unified School District Governing Board responded to questions about the walkout or potential charges.
“I think what was happening is Clovis took the visual context of the walkouts (in Fresno) and were kind of sitting and thinking, what can we do to extinguish this fire before it gets started,” Aldrete said.
“The people of Clovis are having a really hard time swallowing the fact that these students put together and orchestrated this all on their own intelligence and an adult level of understanding of their constitutional rights.”
The town’s police force, and the broader conservative movement, insist that adults present at the walkouts are still responsible for the march and potentially liable for the students missing school.
“I am more and more convinced as I watch more and more of these kinds of walkouts happen that this is not organic,” said Lance Christiansen, a 2022 candidate for state superintendent of public instruction. “This is largely adult agitators pushing these kids to be radical activists.”
The adults who followed student protest

As students walked out of Clovis’ Buchanan High School on that sunny February morning, they found two groups of adults waiting for them.
One was from Fresno Resistance; the other a counterprotest led by a conservative livestreamer who was present during the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol.
“Look at this guy,” said the livestreamer, Josh Fulfer, aiming his camera at a protester whose face was covered, according to a two-hour recording he posted to the conservative social media site Rumble. “I wouldn’t want a predator around my children if they were marching.”
The students walked from their high school to a strip mall, where they stood on the sidewalk and held up signs that said “We are not animals” and “You voted for a felon.”
Fresno Resistance volunteers in fluorescent yellow vests walked alongside the marchers. They stayed until the sun went down, said Liliana, 17, a Buchanan High School student who didn’t want her last name used for fear of reprisal.
“There was a lot of people in big, loud trucks that were revving their engines or blowing smoke at us or stuff like that” during the march and protest, she said. “And there was a lot of people that kept flipping us off.

“I recognized probably about three of them that were revving the smoke at us, they were seniors from our school.”
The marchers were also joined by the Clovis Police Department’s “Camera on Wheels” car, a decommissioned vehicle equipped with multiple high-resolution cameras that can record and send real-time feeds to the department for up to a week at a time, along with about 500 cameras on a city network that is monitored by the police.
Liliana said she helped organize the walkout when she saw other schools organizing a national walkout, and said she got in contact with Fresno Resistance members just days before the march.
A Clovis Unified School District spokesperson said the students could have used designated protest areas on campus instead of walking off campus.
“We felt like it would make more of an impact (walking off campus) than just staying for a 30-minute lunch and doing a protest,” Liliana said.
Aldrete said it’s disappointing that students participating in their first protest faced immediate backlash from their community. He said he hopes it doesn’t stop them from participating in future protests.
“This is the point of their lives where their eyes are being opened,” Aldrete said. “A lot of them, this is their first time doing something like this.”
What Clovis’ history means to city
The town sign hanging over Clovis Avenue in Old Town Clovis on Feb. 28, 2026. Photo by Larry Valenzuela, CalMatters
Clovis loves its history, from the log flume that ferried lumber into the local sawmill to Big Hat Days, where people wear big Western hats. Its middle school retained the name “The Chieftains” despite a plan to change it last year after California banned Native American mascots – the school district found last-minute support from the North Fork Rancheria of Mono Indians to keep the name.
The animating myth of Clovis is about bad people from the big city coming to steal from people. It’s based on a true story, about a day in 1924 when three people from the Bay Area held up the First State Bank and made off with more than $30,000.
So they reenact the crime, year after year, at the city’s Big Dry Creek Museum and they explain what happened in the end, which is that two of the three bank robbers were caught and hanged.

But there are the parts of its history Clovis doesn’t openly embrace. It had a reputation as a sundown town, which historically meant that people of color were not welcome after dark, and could face violence if they stayed.
In a 2019 KVPR story about the Green Book directory of safe places for Black people before and after segregation, longtime Fresno County resident Dorythea Williams told the station that she never needed the Green Book to tell her to avoid Clovis. As a Black person, it wasn’t just closed to her after nightfall.
“You could not stop in Clovis in the daytime,” Williams told KVPR.
Some, like Aldrete, see the ICE protests and the police conduct as an extension of that history, noting that some Fresno kids of color are told to obey a simple motto: Don’t cross State Route 168 from Fresno, where the signs are green, into Clovis, where the signs are brown.

And yet Clovis defies easy stereotypes: On the walls of its museum are photos of high school classes from a century ago. There are Black and Asian students mingled with the majority white population as early as 1933. Its history is one of mostly prosperity.
Its identity is formed in part by its distinction from neighboring Fresno and the other large urban centers of the Central Valley, along with its wealth: The median household income in Clovis was $99,000 in 2024, far higher than the $71,000 median household income in Fresno.
Aldrete said he’s expecting a call any day now to report to the Clovis Police Department and face charges related to his presence at the walkout.
But the potential criminal charges in Clovis have not scared off other student-led and faith-based protest groups from getting in touch with Fresno Resistance. In fact, he said, all the hubbub has drawn more attention their way.
The day after the protest, the Fresno Resistance could not receive emails. Their inbox was full.

CalMatters visual journalist Larry Valenzuela contributed reporting for this story.
Lesa was
my baby sister. Mom tells me that I used to climb into Lesa’s
crib and sing her lullabies. She was born in Chicago and grew up in
the San Fernando Valley. She attended the University of California at
San Diego where she learned to scuba dive, and Cal Berkeley, where
she developed a passion for researching history. She graduated from
Humboldt State, cum laude, where she earned her Bachelor of Arts in
History. Lesa earned her Master of Library Science at the
University of Hawaii in Manoa. She returned to HSU and for many years
supervised the wonderful student assistants who worked the
circulation desk at the Humboldt State Research Library.
Lesa was
a beautiful, petite munchkin, all 4’10” of her. “Everyone
who knew Lesa thought of her as their best friend,”
explains a dear friend, who has known her since their Berkeley days.
“She was quiet when I first met her, but before long we were
traipsing along Strawberry Creek, spilling our hearts out to each
other, our sides aching from so much laughter. Lesa was
quiet, unassuming and a totally enchanting friend. You always wanted
to be in her orbit. She made people feel loved and understood.”
Lesa kept her friends forever. Many lifelong friends will
miss her dearly.
She
came to Humboldt County with her beloved Golden Retriever mix, Oso,
in the 1970s. She wanted to “live a healthy and meaningful life
close to nature.” A love of learning and researching drew her to
work in libraries throughout Humboldt County where, among other
duties, she drove the bookmobile to rural areas.
While
working towards her B.A. at HSU, Lesa was hired as a
student assistant to help archive records for The Humboldt Labor
History Project. She met Noel Harris in the basement of the HSU
Library and he began telling her stories of his lifetime working in
the lumber and plywood industries, particularly as a Union
Representative. The interviews developed into a deep and lasting
friendship with Noel and his wife Ina. Lesa’s book “The Town
that had Enough: a History of Field’s Landing and Its Whaling
Station” was published in 2014.
Lesa built
a home in Jacoby Creek surrounded by 7 acres of forest. She loved
hiking the Arcata Marsh, the Community Forest and the Hammond Trail
with Oso who was “magnificent and psychic.” Kona was her next
pup, a large chocolate lab who became a dear companion.
Currently, Dulce (“sweet” in Spanish) is a white standard doodle
who dances like a goat when she becomes excited. Dulce is now in the
loving care of her nephew Dane and will dance out her days on the
beaches of Land’s End in San Francisco.
In
high school, Lesa and her friends took up folk dancing and
never quit. She was a long-time member of the Humboldt Folk Dancers
in Arcata. In fact, she literally danced her way off the stage
of life. The day after her 71st birthday, she was folk dancing with
her loving community of folk dancers when she felt sick and dizzy.
Her friends rushed her to Mad River Hospital. Doctors diagnosed a
stroke and massive brain bleed.
She
was transferred to Mercy Redding Hospital. Our deep-felt thank
you to the nurses, doctors, Trauma Service and staff at Mercy,
Redding ICU 2N. We will always remember you for your smiles,
expertise, loving kindness, and outstanding care of Lesa. The
silver lining is that Lesa gifted her organs to several
recipients in honor of her nephew Jared, who gratefully received a
liver transplant in November 2025.
Lesa is
survived by her sister, Leslie Coleman Johnson, and her nieces and
nephews, Dylan Johnson (Emily), Elizabeth Teplitzky (Adam), Dane
Johnson, and Katie Rose Fox (Jared). She was a great aunt to Teddy,
Benji, Sylvie and Jack. She was preceded in death by her
mother, Sylvia Coleman, her father, Morrie Coleman, and her brother
Keith Coleman. Rest in peace, Lesa. We love you dearly.

Eventually,
all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was
cut by the world’s great flood and runs over rocks from the
basement of time. On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under
the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs.
I
am haunted by waters.
— Norman

Steve Boyce, aka “Fshyone,” aka “Griz” or “Uncle Griz,”
aka “Guido,” left this earth too soon on Wednesday February 25,
2026. The world has lost a loving, compassionate, loyal, fun-loving,
generous, engaging, kind-hearted person who loved life. He had a big
laugh, the most infectious laugh many have ever known.
Steve was born in San Fernando,
California. He lived in New Mexico and then Washington state for some
years before relocating to Humboldt County in the early 1980s, where
he lived ever since.
In his youth, Steve was an avid
athlete, playing football and baseball from little league all through
high school, ultimately playing for a minor league baseball team in
southern California. After relocating to Humboldt County, he played
for the College of the Redwoods baseball team in his 30s where he
gave the young guys a run for their money.
Steve was a veteran, having served
as a Corpsman in the Navy from 1971-1975. While he disagreed with and
spent plenty of time protesting the Vietnam War, he ultimately
enlisted when he drew a lottery number 9, deciding to join the Navy
instead of being drafted. He had a short stint as the “Forrest Gump
of the Navy,” spending nearly his entire bootcamp playing (and
beating) his superiors (and there were many since he was only in
bootcamp) at ping pong.
After leaving the Navy, he received
a call from a former sailor who asked him if he was interested in
learning how to do ultrasound. He trained under some of the
“grandfathers” of ultrasound, who were professors at USC and UCLA
and ultimately became a Registered Diagnostic Medical Sonographer
(RDMS). He loved practicing ultrasound from the first time he started
learning, and he continued in this career until his retirement in
approximately 2005. He was certified in many modalities and was able
to image the entire body. He never stopped learning about ultrasound.
His favorite modalities were prenatal, cardiac and vascular. He loved
being able to show new parents images of their unborn child and he
told of times when he would freeze an image of a baby’s hand and
put it on a loop so that it looked like the baby was waving to the
parents, who of course loved the gesture.
Everyone who knew Steve knew him to
love the outdoors. In his adult life two of his favorite hobbies were
fishing and hunting. His fishing adventures are many and he came to
know the Eel River like the back of his hand; he spent many, many
hours and years in his drift boat, FSHYTWO, on both the Van Duzen and
the Eel. He occasionally ventured to the Smith or Rogue in Oregon,
but he loved the local rivers most. He was an elk and deer hunting
guide in Colorado for many, many years where he had countless
adventures and made friends he kept in touch with for life. Steve
loved the part about hunting that meant being with friends and
exploring and studying and learning from nature. Steve was passionate
and unwavering in his commitment to honoring the deer and elk he
hunted; he always said prayer and offered gratitude to the animal for
providing sustenance.
Steve was also an avid long range
precision target shooter. He was a member of Long Prairie Gun &
Archery Club for decades, pretty much from the time he moved to
Humboldt. In the years before his passing, he became the Vice
President of the Club, which gave him a voice (sometimes a loud
voice) in the day-to-day operations of the Club.
German Shorthaired Pointers captured
Steve’s heart from early adulthood. His first GSP, Buck, got him
hooked, and they had many adventures. While he dabbled in bird
hunting with Buck for a very short time, he ultimately just loved the
loyalty, goofiness, intelligence and athleticism of the breed.
Following Buck were Sammy and Budd and the current good boy, Bear,
who misses him greatly.
Steve loved his family; his friends;
dogs; sunrises and sunsets; chocolate-chocolate-chocolate; hard
physical work; an ice cold beer (PBR or Downtown Brown); talking
hunting; talking fishing; talking precision shooting; photography;
watching college football; woodworking and furniture building;
pacific giant salamanders; noticing the rainbows in dewdrops;
conversing with ravens; backpacking and hiking; water skiing; snow
skiing; river rafting; anything that immersed him in what nature had
to offer; filet mignon; elk tenderloin; elk sausage with jalapeno and
cheddar; good conversation and healthy respectful debate; John Wayne
movies; military and historical books; stewarding land; the Trinity
Alps Wilderness; and so, so, so much more.
Steve was outgoing and friendly. He
is and will be missed by many.
As were his wishes, he passed away
at home with his wife Connie by his side, supported by their dear
friend, Krista.
Steve is preceded in death by his
parents, Robert and Betty Boyce. He is survived by his partner of
more than 25 years and wife, Connie Scheckla, his son Jarid Boyce
(Angie), his daughter Janis Gallagher, and his grandchildren Sophia
Boyce, Lucas Boyce and Adele Gallagher.
Steve specifically wanted to thank
Dr. Emily Davis of Open Door, FNP Lori Cutler of the VA, and all the
staff and practitioners of Hospice of Humboldt, both the Palliative
Care team and the Hospice team, for their compassion and care at the
end of his life. His family, too, is immeasurably grateful for all of
their support.
Remembrances may be made to Hospice
of Humboldt or to Long Prairie Gun and Archery Club.
A celebration of life will be held
on Saturday, May 16, 2 to 5 p.m., at “The Creek,” where he
loved spending time during the spring, summer and fall. For anyone
who would like to attend, you can reach out to Connie directly, or
text (707) 498-8555 and details will be provided.

The Eureka Police Department (EPD) will conduct a Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and Driver’s License
checkpoint on Tuesday, March 17th, from 6:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m., at a location within the city limits of Eureka.
The specific location will not be disclosed in advance.
The primary purpose of the checkpoint is to promote public safety by deterring impaired driving, raising
awareness, and removing suspected impaired drivers from the roadway. Officers will be looking for drivers
impaired by alcohol, cannabis, illicit drugs, or prescription medications that may affect their ability to safely
operate a vehicle.
What Drivers Can Expect
Vehicles will be stopped in a neutral, predetermined sequence
Drivers will be briefly contacted by officers trained in DUI detection
Field sobriety tests may be conducted when appropriate
Delays to motorists are expected to be minimal
Safety Reminders
Plan ahead: designate a sober driver, use public transportation, a rideshare service, or call a taxi
If you see a driver you suspect to be impaired, call 9-1-1
Medications, including some over-the-counter and prescription drugs, can impair driving ability, always
read warning labels and consult your doctor or pharmacist
Driving while impaired is not worth the risk. A DUI arrest can result in jail time, license suspension, and
significant fines and fees.
This operation is funded by a grant from the California Highway Patrol through the Cannabis Tax Fund Grant
Program.
The complaints have been amended to allege murder. District Attorney Stacey Eads notes in an email to the Outpost any juvenile court processes would be confidential.

Original post:
Two Hoopa teenagers are facing six felony charges for a shooting last week that left a 17-year-old dead.
Codefendants Tse-Lin Lincoln, 19, and William Randolph Billy Warren, 18, each pleaded not guilty to the charges filed by the District Attorney’s office Friday at their arraignment, according to court records.
A third defendant who was arrested on a no-bail warrant and identified by Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office as a suspect, 15-year-old Preston Ruiz II, was previously booked into Juvenile Hall on suspicion of similar charges.
The criminal complaint charges the adult pair with attempted murder, along with four counts of assault with firearms, with a total of five victims noted. Two victims identified in the complaint appear to be students at Hoopa Valley High.
Each charge has a gang-related violence enhancement, alleging the crimes were for a criminal street gang.
The pair are accused of causing brain injury to the victim resulting in coma and paralysis. The complaint alleges the codefendants shot an occupied vehicle, with the victim inside, using a handgun.
Investigators are now seeking an additional murder charge for the three suspects, according to HCSO. The defendants were initially charged hours before the victim died from his injuries Friday.
We reached out to the District Attorney’s office and will update this post when we learn more.
The victim was just over a week away from his 18th birthday when he died. The Hoopa Valley Tribe identified him as a tribal member, and a public Facebook post from a family member identified him as Dylan Andrew Moon.
Both adult defendants are being held without bail, according to court records. Lincoln is represented by the Public Defender’s office, while Warren is being represented by Conflict Counsel.
The three codefendants were located in the days following the shooting that shuttered local schools and shocked the community.
Ruiz was found in a residence located off State Highway 169 near Wautec. Billy Warren was located at a hotel in the 1900 block of 4th St. in Eureka. Lincoln turned himself into deputies at the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office.
The preliminary examination for the adult codefendants is scheduled for April 28, with their next hearing in the case to be held tomorrow.
The Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office urges anyone with information on this case to call the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office at (707) 445-7251 or the Sheriff’s Office Crime Tip Line at (707) 268-2539. The Hoopa Valley Tribe has previously offered a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspects.
Eureka City Schools administrators posted the following statement to social media this afternoon:
Dear EHS and ZOE Families,
Just after 1:00 PM today, both the Eureka High School and ZOE campuses were placed into lockdown after a threat was received. Out of an abundance of caution, administration and staff immediately implemented safety protocols while the situation was assessed. The lockdown was lifted at approximately 1:50 PM after law enforcement determined it was safe to do so, and normal learning activities resumed shortly thereafter. We would like to thank the Eureka Police Department (EPD) for their swift response and partnership in ensuring the safety of our learners and staff. As always, the safety of our learners remains our highest priority.
Thank you for your continued support.
Eureka City Schools
College of the Redwoods administrators also gave the all-clear.
CR campus was on lockdown this afternoon due to a threat to campus; we are now in the clear.
Thank you to campus security and local police for investigating swiftly.
###
UPDATE, 2:07 p.m.:
The threat appears to lack credibility, at least at the two Eureka high schools, according to law enforcement.
“We are on scene [at EHS] investigating and can confirm no credible threat,” said Eureka Police Department spokesperson Rachel Sollom.
###
Original post:
At least three local school campuses — Eureka High, Zoe Barnum High and CR’s main campus — have been placed on lockdown over concerns about a possible active shooter, though there has been no shooting, according to law enforcement officials.
“There’s no school shooter,” Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Erin Inskip said. “Deputies are responding out to Tompkins Hill Road but there is no shooting. There was a threat that somebody was being bullied and that someone would start shooting but the threat hasn’t been confirmed. CR is on a lockdown. Deputies are responding.”
CR students are on spring break this week, but they received an alert on their phones: “CR main campus lockdown - threat of a school shooter. If on campus, stay inside. If off campus, avoid the area.”
Del Norte High School has also been placed on lockdown, Redwood Voice reports. Students are currently secured inside their classrooms while law enforcement investigate a threat that had been called into the school, Del Norte Unified School District spokesman Michael Hawkins told Redwood Voice.
This story is breaking. We’ll update as more information becomes available.
Or at least that’s how the audience at the Eureka Theater last night clearly felt about the big Oscar win for “One Battle After Another.”
Director Paul Thomas Anderson’s masterful action-comedy-thriller, big portions of which were filmed right here in Humboldt County, racked up dozens upon dozens of awards over the past few months, but this was the big one.
In addition to Best Picture, Anderson took home Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay (his first Oscars after receiving 11 prior nominations); Sean Penn won Best Supporting Actor (though he was not in attendance); Andy Jugensen won for Best Editing; and Cassandra Kulukundis won the first-ever Academy Award for Best Casting.
Here in Eureka, another Cassandra — Humboldt-Del Norte County Film Commissioner Cassandra Hesseltine — basked in the glow of victory alongside many of the other local folks who were involved with the production. The Red Carpet Gala at the Eureka Theater has become an annual tradition, but never before has Humboldt had this much skin in the game.
It wasn’t quite a clean sweep for “OBAA.” Leonardo DiCaprio lost the Best Actor race to Michael B. Jordan, who won for his twin roles in director Ryan Coogler’s blues-infused vampire film “Sinners,” while Benicio del Toro and Teyana Taylor lost their supporting actor/actress bids to Penn and Amy Madigan (“Weapons”), respectively.
But it was all about that Best Picture award, and the film’s crowning achievement appeared to inspire as much joy in Eureka as it did in Hollywood.
Relive highlights from the production’s 11-day stint here in Humboldt via the links you’ll find below this gif of Leonardo DiCaprio running through Arcata.
