Jefferson County Sheriff's Log | Cooking meth

Posted

The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office received 235 calls for service between Saturday, April 9 and Friday, April 16. Below are selected reports.

At 1:37 p.m. Tuesday, April 12 in Brinnon, a caller said people were living at a rental home but they did not belong there.

A deputy contacted a woman there, who said they had kept living at the property after the person who rented the place had died.

She said they were planning to leave once their motor home was fixed.

At 5:17 p.m. Tuesday, April 12 in Quilcene, a young woman reportedly made threats to kill herself.

The caller said she had made very volatile comments.

It was determined the young woman was on her way out of state and contact should be made with local authorities there.

At 8:40 p.m. Tuesday, April 12 in Port Hadlock, a caller said some suspicious-looking people were taking things out of a home not far away.

There was a black vehicle in the driveway and a silver Subaru nearby. The caller also said the steering column of a BMW that was in the driveway had been tampered with.

A deputy responding to the call found drag marks on the roadway nearby on northbound Oak Bay Road.

Authorities tried to contact the owner of the vehicle found on the property with no success.

At 9:33 a.m. Thursday, April 14 in Brinnon, a caller reported the overnight theft of two trees.

The caller, a logger in the area, asked for extra patrols due to continuing suspicious activity in the area.

At 11:28 a.m. Thursday, April 14 in Port Hadlock, a case manager for a mental health facility said a client had complained about missing cash.

The client said $300 had gone missing while she was in the hospital, and was also worried about people in her house who were “cooking meth” while she was gone.

At 2:11 p.m. Friday, April 15 at the sheriff’s office in Port Hadlock, authorities received a walk-in report from a local school staffer who said a man threatened to shoot her while she was talking on the phone with him.

The man was the parent of a student at the school.

The school employee said earlier that day an irate parent had called the school and became belligerent.

She also said she was unsure if he said he was going to “shoot” or “sue” her.

There was a long history with the parent, and the woman wanted the incident documented.

At 3:46 p.m. Friday, April 15 in Sequim, a caller said someone near Max Jack Seafood was stealing wood.

A white Ford F-150 was seen. The caller complained of an ongoing issue of people taking firewood from the location without paying.

A deputy responded and the truck was still there. A person was contacted by a deputy, and admitted taking the wood.

An unloaded firearm was found in the truck. 

The person was eventually arrested for theft.
