Federal agents seize $1 million worth of marijuana, $400,00 in cash, dozens of firearms.

Thirty-two people are under arrest after a federal grand jury returned an eight-count indictment charging them with conspiracy to grow marijuana as part of an East Bay drug ring, U.S. Attorney Benjamin B. Wagner announced late Wednesday.

More than two dozen were scheduled to be arraigned today in Sacramento Federal Court, although six of those indicted had yet to be arrested as of this afternoon. If convicted, the defendants could face the statutory penalty of 10 years to life in prison.

After opening an investigation into the marijuana-growing operation early last year, the Drug Enforcement Administration arrested 26 people associated with it May 16 and 17 and sought six others. Law enforcement agents seized more than $1 million worth of marijuana -- including thousands of marijuana plants from at least 14 indoor grow operations and dozens of pounds of processed cannabis -- as well as dozens of firearms and at least $400,000, officials said earlier this month.

Those implicated in what DEA agents are calling "Operation Disco Dazed" range in ages from 20 to 57, and reside in Alameda, Contra Costa, Fresno and Stanislaus counties. Agents did not offer an explanation for the moniker.

Investigators focused on Grower's Choice Hydroponics, an equipment retailer operating in Tracy and Hayward and owned by Steven Ortega Sr., 50, and Marla Ortega, 57, both of Byron.

Ortega and his 25-year-old son, Steven Ortega Jr. of Discovery Bay, allegedly directed a drug trafficking organization that used the stores to provide growing equipment to partners in exchange for a cut of profits from the marijuana sold, an affidavit in support of the criminal complaint says.

"The use of legitimate businesses to facilitate marijuana cultivation and launder the proceeds of trafficking is a classic feature of such organizations," Wagner said in a prepared statement released Wednesday.

Also charged in the indictment were Richard Serrell, 44, of Antioch; Marcus Williams, 28, of Hayward; Kevin Kuester, 43, of Fremont; Steven Adgate, 30, of Rio Vista; Jake Westerman, 22, of Livermore; Nickolas Perry, 23, Joey Figlia, 23, and Kevin Kirkpatrick, 27, of Discovery Bay; Reginald Bell, 38, of Union City; Dusty Burge, 39, Matt Ortega, 21, Jay Dupee, 50, and Bryan Swiers, 31, all of Byron; Anthony Giarrusso, 24, Brock Enrico, 25, and Kyle Schmidt, 25, all of Oakley; Todd Becerra, 38, and Joseph Mirante, 40, of Tracy; Charles Erickson, 36, and Travis Olibas, 23, of Fresno; Richard Reynolds, 34, of Modesto; Justin McMillian, 32, of Salida; Shawn Thompson, 43, of Mountain House; Frederick Laurens, 29, and Michael Kelley, 20, of Brentwood; and Derek Winters, 30, Robert Kennedy, 25, Nicholas Ojeda, 32, and Jason Siegfried, 28, of Patterson.

Bench warrants have been issued for Burge, Erickson, Figlia, Kennedy, Ojeda and Perry, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.

If Rich snitched he wouldn’t be out and about like he has for all these years.

I really don't care if it's true or not but it wouldn't surprise me if he did. Snitching is accepted in today's world.

Nah, rich is an og not one of these new school punks, and that accusation would have been following him if it had any weight.

and I hate to say it, but 40’s character has always been questioned by many, unlike RR.

but hey, who really knows I guess

 

[Waterproof]

Look here for y'all ain't familiar with the Bay, If Richie Rich was a rat he wouldn't be walking around in Oakland. Oakland would of been had his head

 

[Mr. Negative]

Either Rich a Rat and 40 been cool with him knowing he a rat or 40 just making shyt up

Either way 40 taking the L on this one

exactly.

Hell, I was shocked as shyt when I found out that PSD was the cat from the Crest that snitched on everybody, and they basically excommunicated his ass,

40 calling Rich a snitch this late in the game would be like J-Diggs or Sugawolf hanging with PSD til this day and calling him a snitch just cause they mad.


Not a solid move at all, even if it's true.

E-40 lost $80,000 of diamond jewelry including a necklace, bracelet and pendant during the scuffle.

The rapper has notified police about the missing jewelry, and police plan to investigate when they receive pictures of the missing items from E-40's representatives

E-40 was visiting Bryan "Baby" Williams, co-CEO of Cash Money Records, and Williams' son when he encountered Mack Minister. The latter frequently shows up at events where E-40 is expected to attend and demands to be put on an E-40 album or asks to perform, Hayes said. This time, he said, Mack Minister complained he wasn't doing well in the music business. During the fight, E-40 put Mack Minster in a headlock and "no one saw what happened after that," Hayes said.

Hayes said E-40 lost $80,000 of diamond jewelry including a necklace, bracelet and pendant during the scuffle.

The rapper has notified police about the missing jewelry, and police plan to investigate when they receive pictures of the missing items from E-40's representatives, Aversano said.
