On September 3, 2014 at approximately 3:29PM, Amador County Combined Narcotics Enforcement Team (ACCNET) Agents assisted by the Amador County Probation Department executed a search warrant at the Justin Lawrence Brach residence in the 7600 block of Goose Hill Ranch Road in Ione.  Brach’s residence was identified in June as being the location of a large indoor/outdoor medical marijuana cultivation site.

During the course of the investigation and search warrant, ACCNET personal located a sophisticated indoor marijuana cultivation site in the attached garage which had been completely remodeled for the purpose of growing marijuana plants.  The indoor cultivation site consisted of multiple lights and ballast, carbon dioxide generators, reflective wall material and electronic watering and feeding equipment.  The indoor cultivation site also contained a fully functional butane honey oil (BHO) extraction laboratory along with a gas powered industrial size marijuana processing mill.  The processing area contained boxes and packaging material that was consistent with marijuana being packaged for sale and shipment via commercial shipping companies.  Agents located a sealed box ready for shipment which contained numerous individual packages wrapped and disguised to look like Christmas gifts.  Upon opening the wrapped gifts, they were found to contain sealed baggies stuffed with approximately ten pounds of processed marijuana.  The residence also contained digital scales, hundreds of individual containers used to package BHO for sales, hundreds of homemade marijuana edibles intended for sale, approximately one pound of BHO and sixty pounds of processed marijuana.  It was noted that the room containing the BHO lab was adjacent to (shared a wall with) a four month old child’s bedroom.   Agents located a hand written ledger describing Brach’s plans to make a million dollars selling marijuana within the first two years of his business.  A loaded handgun was also found at the residence.  Brach is a convicted felon and is precluded from possessing firearms.

At the rear of the residence, Agents located an outdoor grow consisting of 40 growing marijuana plants, next to a large green house containing an additional 147 growing marijuana plants.  Brach admitted he only uses around 0.5 grams of marijuana per month for his medical purposes and that he is growing a vast majority of the marijuana for the purpose of making a line of edible marijuana infused candy which he intended to market in marijuana dispensaries and head shops.  Preliminary estimates indicate that Mr. Brach could have yielded 200 pounds of processed marijuana had his crop been harvested. 

Amador County Child Protective Services was notified and responded to address the child endangerment issue.  Justin Lawrence Brach, 35, of Ione was arrested and transported to the Amador County Jail for booking.  Brach was charged with manufacturing a controlled substance, cultivation of marijuana, possession of marijuana for sale, felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition, conspiracy, and child endangerment.  Bail was set at $100,000.00.

The Amador STARS, 11the Annual Amador Camp Out for Cancer raised over $65,000 (and still counting) this weekend at the Amador County Fairgrounds. 

28 teams of families and friends gathered to support their friends on the Cancer Journey, to celebrate Life, and to raise funds! 
A free live music festival took place on the Amador County Fairgrounds with local musicians: Herb Boxhorn, Wicked Sisters, Bruce Dixon, Mike Rolf and Electra Road donated their talents as well as Pete Bell who is the Sound Guy. 

Co Chairs, Donna Jackson, Ginger Rolf
Sub Chairs: Nancy Swensen, Joanne Hazen and Tammy Accinelli celebrated a very successful weekend. 

Amador STARS is a non profit organization in Amador County which offers Support, Transportation and Resource Services to the community. All proceeds raised at the event remain local, except for 8 per cent which goes to Cancer Research.

This year a check for $6,000 from last years Camp Out for Cancer was presented to Amador Cancer Research Foundation, and Cathy Landgraf accepted the check for her non profit. The funds will go to the UC Davis Cancer Research program. The research foundation was founded in memory of Cathy's sister Christine. 

This years Camp Out for Cancer was dedicated to Virginia Marney. Virginia lost her long battle with cancer in March of this year. She was passionate about the event, as well as dedicating her time to raising funds for the Amador STARS. Virginia's Camp Out for Cancer team raised over $50,000 in just 11 years. Her passion to continue dedicating funds to cancer research seems to keep her memory alive with her Camp Out for Cancer family. She was missed at the event this year, but her spirit was certainly with us!

The candle light ceremony at night lit the way for the night time walkers with luminaries dedicated to those touched by cancer. 

The Amador STARS has 6 vans which transport patients to their chemotherapy and radiation appointments for treatment. We are a volunteer run organization with over 30 volunteer drivers. It is through the generosity of this community, that the Amador STARS can continue to serve our friends and neighbors on their cancer journey. 

Together, WE DO make a difference in the life of a cancer patient! Thank you so much for all who participated and it is not to late to donate to the cause… Just call Amador STARS at 209-223-1246.
