Assets of illegal growers seized, $1,576,892.00 so far. This year. Mendocino county is going after these people, and taking their stuff. Read about it here.

What do they do with the seized assets? Use them to clean up the mess left by illegal pot farms, like Emeralds:

"The Mendocino County District Attorney's Office has in the past been a financial partner in efforts to cleanup large-scale hazardous waste sites left behind by illegal marijuana profiteers.

Using drug-related asset forfeiture funds, District Attorney Eyster contributed to private efforts to remove more than three tons of garbage and pesticides from two different growing sites on public lands, grow sites where 9,600 pot plants had previously been found growing. It is estimated that more than 870,000 gallons of water would have been necessarily diverted from nearby fish-bearing streams to water the plants during the plant life cycle in these illegal plantations. At the time, this DA-sponsored partnership and effort was believed to be among the first statewide."

Bad boys, whatcha gonna do? Watcha gonna do when they come for you ....
