A 2018 report from the Lost Coast Outpost notes that while Humboldt does lead the state in reports of missing persons, it's also among the best at finding people who disappear. The documentary itself suggests that the isolated nature of Humboldt may make it more attractive to runaways and others hoping to get off the grid, at least temporarily. "Maybe with this coverage we will get some answers, I pray!" wrote another. The good people up there need to help them," wrote one. "I live nearby and the sherrifs (sic) definitely have been doing their job in rancho. The post has been shared over 550 times, and over 200 commenters took sides on the issue.
#MURDER MOUNTAIN SERIES#
The Humboldt County Sheriff's Office was not paid to be part of this series and participated out of our commitment to transparency." It was designed to be sold to Netflix for a profit. The office concluded the note: "Finally, as all things in Hollywood, please know that 'Murder Mountain' is a Hollywood manufactured drama based on a true story. The department said they can't address specific questions on the open case into Rodriguez's death, but did bullet-point five main disputes with the way the department was characterized, including information on their homicide case closure rate. The show delves into how Rodriguez - who went missing around the start of 2013 - hoped to earn some quick cash on Murder Mountain in the then-illegal cannabis industry. Sheriffs' deputies even use the nickname early in the series. The name Murder Mountain refers to the Rancho Sequoia area east of Garberville, and the name reportedly dates back to a 1982 killing in the area. The six-episode series is centered around a San Diego-area man who went missing near the town of Garberville in southern Humboldt, a little over an hour's drive through the redwoods south of the county seat of Eureka, and the college town of Arcata. "At some point during their time in Humboldt County, the producers of 'Murder Mountain' decided to change the scope of the series to focus on the ongoing homicide investigation of Garret Rodriguez."ĪLSO: 'Too white' Women's March is back on in Eureka "The original plot line of this series, as presented to the Sheriff's Office upon consideration of our participation, was to examine the changes in the county as a result of marijuana legalization, highlight the challenges of law enforcement in rural jurisdictions, and present a historic comparison of the county's 'green rush' and timber rushes," wrote the Sheriff's Department.
