I’ve been telling everyone Valencia is nothing but crime!!
Lol, then you don’t know crime.
Palmdale is nothing but crime just like Compton or inglewood. Valencia still has one of the lowest crime rates in California but yes there is some crime like this but it’s not as much as other places
Bahaha brian r u acting like Shirley now…
Dam it she got to ur head bro,
If only they knew u were being sarcastic
Eileen
^hahahahaha. #stillbetterthaneverywhereelseinLA
Not really. It’s still a farce, just more money.
If that’s the worst Valencia can report, that’s nothing. All other parts of L.A. and the SFV have a million things worse going on on an hourly basis.
They could report worse but then it would bring property values down… The sheriff’s limit the information. ..

No – we have a pretty good idea of all the drama here.
We just don’t want this place to turn into L.A. and the SFV.

To late. .. sorry but I lived in santa clarita for over 20 years. It used to be a great place to live. The entire santa clarita Valley was nice. Newhall was always a little edgy then it trickled to Canyon country… then Saugus. … Half of valencia. … The sheriff’s are bigger criminals then the people they arrest… I have personally watched the corruption between the sheriff’s and the DA. (No it had nothing to do with me)… 1000 Oaks is the way to go.
if you dont like it in SCV – move!!
Property values won’t decrease. The average sized house here is still in the mid $400-500k. Take that house and put it anywhere closer to the heart of Los Angeles and the value goes up. Where drugs are more comment and pot dispensaries are on every corner. If you put a Starbucks in the hood – a venti chai latte with no foam and a side of uggs is still $5 no matter what. Am I right?
Remember, the lesser of two evils is still evil! Nobody ever said Santa Clarita is perfect! I just remind everyone that was recently putting down canyon country, aka, Jakes Way, to just thank our sheriffs for helping to keep US ALL safer than in most other places.
some people are so narrow-minded…it’s pathetic.
Hollie Hardiman Montgomery duh!!! Moved in 2011 when I saw a white tweeker jacking off behind a billboard at 6 am on a Saturday morning jogging the bike trail. Figured that was a good time to leave.. but thanks for the advice anyways… not narrow minded just live in reality
Again eye witnessed corruption in the sheriff’s dept… Some people should not talk about narrow minded. .. The people protecting this town also are corrupt. ..
Suzie Acosta no your not right.. The houses that are 400-500k were worth that same amount 20 years ago…. so santa clarita bulldozed more mountains to make more houses. there might not be a dispensery on every corner but yet prescription pills are in most medicine cabinets . . . My kids grew up there and have lost way to many friends or fellow schoolmates over prescription over doses. … Most of the kids got it from their own medicine cabinets… I don’t think pot is the issue in santa clarita. . I think it’s pills and meth.
Yeah exactly my point. Property values WONT decrease because of drug use. And you’re right about the drugs. But like I said drugs are prevalent anywhere you go. It’s what we do to keep people/children educated about the consequences. I too have lost friends due to drugs and have made it my mission for my life to NOT be like that and that’s all you can do.
Thousand Oaks isn’t exempt from drugs. Are you kidding? As long as people pay for them, there will be drug dealers. It’s a simple life decision? Do I want to live on hell on earth or not? It’s an absolute no do me. I will
Never ever buy or take drugs. It’s a lame lifestyle
This won’t affect property values. I
Btw.. Property values are supposed to go up not stay the same.
You know you’re old and irrelevant when you’ve never even heard of “liquid” Ecstasy before.
Or maybe they’re just not into the drug scene.

“What are marijuana tablets?” XD
“What are marijuana tablets?” XD
@dakota lol!!!
I am 33 and must be old and irrelevant.
I’m 25 and have never heard of it either!
I’m 28 and had no idea there was such thing.
ok…had to get in on this!!!…I’m 62 and having raised 3 now grown adults in this valley, knew about just about every drug. I’ve always said most parents here are in denial or are using themselves..its easier to live is a bubble than dare to confront/open your eyes..oh don’t get me started on this topic ;-)
I was thinking the same! Lol
thats not “nothing”! Idiots like this need to be stopped! They dont belong in our area!
Or ANY area
Thank you Sherie Ritter-Rubin
“Idiots like this” are all around us all the time. Open your eyes. Drugs are everywhere in Santa Clarita.
my eyes are OPEN! it doesnt mean we have to condone it or bash people who try to stop it!? some people are so freaking narrow-minded and ignorant, there is truly no shock value anymore. pathetic.
Your kind words, diplomatic tone, and plan of action is truly inspirational.
Thanks Obama!
Wtf?
2016 can’t come soon enough…
U are stupid to say THANKS Obama what a ass
Oh no property value will go down now not good soo much going on lately bs. Someone needs to do something about it
Well said. What are you going to do?
There’s nothing I can do.
What??? You’ve no clue what to do? Your lack of ideas is as bad as the problem itself. Think hard, I’m sure something will pop in your head.
Lmao
Have a great day mr
Greg Brown what can u do?

everyone needs to calm down and stop acting like drugs are something new in SCV. when I went to VHS 12 years ago girls were smoking crack in the bathroom during class. Privileged girls with daddies money. So knock it off.

that doesn’t mean it’s acceptable?! Do you have children? and do you pay property taxes?
Are you asking or telling me? I never said it’s acceptable. But acting as if it’s the end of the world or it’s a rare occurrence out here is also being completely ignorant. Our news source highlights these articles because there is nothing else going on. It’s not going to lower property values or mean that there is going to be a war on drugs, it means that the sheriffs department stopped a man, had a reason to search his car and did their job. They confiscated his drugs and arrested him. That’s it. But when people hmm and haa over it that makes the situation worse than it really needs to be. We need to live in a reality where no matter where you go – drugs are going to be prevalent. Its what we do are citizens/parents etc that either enable them or disable their power.
Hollie Hardiman Montgomery the hell does her paying property taxes have to do with anything? Suzie Acosta this chic^ is nuts.
Well said, Suzie!! Don’t know where Hollie was going with her comments, but paying taxes has nothing to do with anything, Drugs are everywhere and this town is full of young/privileged idiots!
I really have no idea which way she was going with her argument. But thanks guys!
lol well she was so up my ass. Thought I might put the info out there if she really wanted it
I had no idea ecstasy came in a liquid lol and Suzie Acosta I would like to know your blood type.
I’m O+ so I can help anyone.
I’m hoping the bean gods blessed me with that blood type too!
U guys can argue I’m just mad that the 4th of July party is gonna suck now
Cameron is that what you were bringing for the 4th?
Ooo ya definitely bringing the “fireworks” hahaha
Hahahaha well you better hurry up and re up by Saturday
I remember you Suzie, I graduated 11 years ago. Drugs were big at VHS and always have been. Drugs are NOT new in SCV….. I remember people buying $10 syringes of Heroin at Golden Valley when it first opened….. it isn’t newww, kids!!!
Suzie Acosta I found your response to be polite, intelligent and to the point. I couldn’t have worded it better. Although you don’t have children now I have a feeling you will be an excellent mom.
Suzie you were great. This was the best thread. :) Thank you. I even enjoyed the genuine disappointment of the guy who won’t have his ecstasy for the 4th of July party. Cameron Marrone. Lol
Dustin Grieve u hear that a great mom.. When’s that baby coming my little girl is gonna need a friend
Lots o drugs in SCV, but most importantly, lots of drug users.
Cameron you forgot we’re Mexican. We have to be careful. If Dustin looks at me the wrong way I’ll get pregnant
That’s why you were asked if you paid proper tax. All Mexicans are illegal. LOL
Really glad those police road stop checks are working.

i saw this. sucks
Hang him high
I thought pure ecstasy was MDMA aka Molly.. Not GHB.. Which is the “date rape” drug?
Thank you Suzie Acosta for being a voice of reason. The drug problem in this valley is decades old. But for those of you that are shocked, or complaining that this is a part of the SCV going downhill-all I can say to you is open your eyes.
Voice of reason, my butt.
Chris, shooting down what someone says is easy. Do you have any thoughts of your own on the matter, or did you just show up to whine?
This is a county wide problem. The drug sellers are in full force. There’s a lot of money to be made selling fools poison.
No one needs drugs. Why are people curious about putting roach kill in their system? I don’t get it. Drugs are in every state. People have to stearnly tell their kids, that drug dealers are in it for money making. The drug trade will sell you anything in the name of a good time, yet, forgot to have you read the small print. It’s as good as pesticide in your veins.
Education is the key. Our son is 11 years old, and we started talking about this stuff awhile ago. Because the last thing you want as a parent is your kid to learn about these things first from their friends or someone else outside the home.
Since when is GHB liquid ecstasy??
Courtesy of wikipedia: “GHB is often taken because users find that it enhances their experiences of being in a club, party, or rave; small doses of GHB can act as a stimulant and aphrodisiac. GHB is sometimes referred to as liquid ecstasy, lollipops, liquid X or liquid E due to its tendency to produce euphoria and sociability and its use in the dance party scene.[18] Despite this nickname, GHB has entirely separate chemical and pharmacological modes of action compared to MDMA (ecstasy).”
Kids in this valley have too much money
Decades old problem people
Way to go awesome town
Glad they caught him. Hopefully saved some people from being raped.
Remove your blinders. Santa Clarita Valley is still safer than most cities in the US. If you don’t think so do some research before bashing your hometown.
Looks like he will be moving out of Bridgeport
And nobody is wondering where the other 1/2 gallon went?! Haha I guess it’s better than finding loaded weapons and heading towards Canyon Country.
This has been going on for years in the Santa Clarita Valley… Be realistic…. Its EVERYWHERE…. Drugs have been up here since the times of the Heart Era, that would be the turn of the century …. Money and privilege kept it quiet …. You just here more because our valley is much more populated
Yes like drugs are everywhere you go it’s not just Santa clarity
Everyone heats about it now bc of social media and the internetz.
Also, many awesome town residents are drinkers & party animals. Their kids observe them & graduate to other forms of highs. People are way too in love with the party lifestyle.
Prop 47
Ignorant
Says the dude working at a burger place
Liquid extacy?! Never even heard of that. I’m more shocked that extacy is a liquid these days?!? Damn whipper snappers
GHB is used to make the date rape drug, so instead of saying “oh this exist don’t act surprised” be glad there is one less dirt bag out there selling it & doing God knows what else.
Peopl act like drugs are not present in the world. I’m sorry by they are everywhere and always will be because drug users aren’t limited to social class. Rich and poor, young and old, among all classes there will be users among them. And whoever thinks it’s going to drive property values down because of this is a moron. I would think a father that murdered his baby daughter or a power ranger stabbing his roommate with a sword is more likely to affect who moves to scv rather than a guy prepping for hard summer.
Drugs are everywhere…..nothing new. And yes I agree, if you don’t like living here you should move. It is still better than alot of other places.
Wow
Folks here think they live in Stepford, try to get a bit more involved in your families…….
Colton Korne lol
GHB is the date rape drug and I’m 100% positive it was GHB not liquid ecstasy. “G” is what they like to call it. It is VERY popular out here! People have no clue. See someone at a bar who’s drunk but had only one drink? Blame GHB! If you take a certain amount it will make you feel drunk and give you that spinning feeling without having to drink a thing. And no hangover. This is what I’ve heard, not by experience. If you give too much it knocks you out, hence the “date rape” part. I know many many friends who have set their drinks down in local bars in Scv or in Hollywood and they get drugged after one drink. Men will walk around pouring that stuff into girls drinks while they aren’t looking and watch from a far and prey on them. It’s sick.
omg……Dustin Alleman
Every time I wonder why people look at the general population of the SCV as complete morons, comments like these bring it all into focus.
Wow

So glad they got itoff the streets.
I actually knew the guy who got arrested. He was struggling very badly before this arrest and this may be the very thing that saves his life. Really sad that he made life choices that ended him up in jail. Hopefully he will learn his lesson and turn his life around. I work for a local non-profit that helps young people who are addicted to drugs and one thing I do know for sure is that addicts are just hurting people.These people aren’t all inherently bad. Addiction can make awesome people do HORRIBLE things. Instead of talking about how people like this are giving our community a bad name or effecting the tax payers, why don’t we pray for them that they will get help and find peace? There are so many broken people like Luca walking around SCV that need help. Let’s be proactive about it instead of standing back in judgment.
SO SAD, HE WAS A GREAT GUY AND HAD ALOT GOING FOR HIM. HIS DAD RECENTLY PASSED AWAY AND HE WAS STRUGGLING. I TRIED TO HELP HIM BUT WAS UNSUCESSFUL. I THINK THISIS A BIG WAKE UP CALL FOR HIM AND MAYBE THIS IS WHAT HE NEEDED TO SAVE HIS LIFE. AN NO HE WASNT GIVING IT TO GIRLS TO RAPE THEM HE MADE IT FOR HIMSELF….PEOPLE NEED TO WUIT BEING SO JUDGEMENTAL. EVERYONE HAS THERE OWN DEMONS
May I ask the name on your organization?
Sure! It’s called, A Light of Hope – Santa Clarita, CA :)
I am in shock! The SCV cops actually did their job!?
David Adrian Agüero lol
I’ve been caught lol
On fb in jail?!?
Yea they have wifi in here. Its actually kinda nice. And my inmates are so emotionally supportive
How did you get your phone past security?
Ooh is that why everyone is so emotionally supportive? There hoping there’s another phone up there

I have lived in Scv for 35 years and we have always had a drug problem so all you new people coming in you might think it’s a shock but us that have been here forever we know it happens. We know what areas and witch schools are the worst. These kids these days have way to much time and money on their hands so yes it has gotten way worse. Don’t get me wrong I can’t wait to get out of here lol… Not the same still a good town but nothing like it used to be.
GHB and ecstacy aka MDMA are not the same thing and they shouldn’t be confused.
Scumbag.
Now just to find out who’s supplying the kids with heroin would be nice too.
Damn, next thing you know, Mexicans and black people will move here.
Kids dying from heroin and the one place to go for help only takes insurance or a lot of money. Sad.
Jazmine Depew
Crazy I’d still move back tho lol
Yeah I’d pretty much move any where in Cali except Santa Maria hahaha
I’d even live there I hate it here
Jo Jade
True they have been around however I appreciate the officers who take as much as they can off the streets.
The town we live in smh Christal Johnson Brandon Paul Johnson
HahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahshahahahahahahahagGagahahHhahahHahahahHhahahahHahahHahahahahHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahhahaaaahahahaha
I’d love to know of a town that has no drugs… Oh ya there aren’t any
Valencia is x and crack, Saugus is meth, Newhall is heroin, and canyon country is weed! At lest that’s how I remembered it back in high school! I agree with everyone… This isn’t new! No where close to new… I’m makin an assumption but, if your shocked by this with 1 of 2 things; 1. You live under a rock and/or 2. You are new to Awesome Town! Best way to talk about SCV…? “Polish a turd, it’s still a turd!” I wouldn’t say SCV a is going down hill at all! I would say there is a slight chance it may be getting better!
What lol what girls were smocking crack at Valencia bahaha not sure about that one but black tar has taken over Santa clarita
I remember on two occasions girls asking if I wanted some.
You know SCV is still a good place to live, as long as threads like these continue to gather a ton of responses. Why? Because it proves once again, half the people who live here still don’t physically see drugs and crime around them. So when social media talks about it, it’s a big shock. That’s actually great. Again, the surprise of drugs and crime here just goes to show it’s still hidden from most people or the level is low enough where people still think it doesn’t exist. I live in BOTH the SCV and SFV and like I said at the start of this thread, you guys have absolutely no idea how much worse it can get. What’s reported here is a tiny tiny tiny percentage of the crime rate taking place in the SFV. You should all be thanking your stars you live in such a great city. You have no idea how much worse it could be. Good day.

@31ao LMFAO
Wow..
Steven Payne daayyuumm!! Haha
Lol wow freakin e tards
I agree with you Brittany Tavalaro. This town is not all at like it used to be when we were growing up here. It is sad that drug sellers know many kids here have money to purchase drugs. Should make parents think twice about how much cash they are dealing out to their kids.

I’m pretty sure GHB and ecstasy are two completely different substances, but 3-1/2 gallons of it is an INSANE amount. He was more than likely planning to distribute.
