The Washoe County Sheriff’s Office celebrated 150 years of proud service and community partnership in 2011. Sheriff Michael Haley is the 25th person elected to serve as the Sheriff of Washoe County. His office continues to be the only full service public safety agency operating within northern Nevada and is responsible for operating the consolidated detention facility, regional crime lab, Northern Nevada Counter Terrorism Center, Internet Crimes against Children Task Force, court security, service of civil process, traditional street patrols and Regional Animal Services.

The Sheriff’s Office has confirmed with the Washoe County Medical Examiner’s Office that a formal identification and next of kin notification has been completed. The decreased motorcyclist has been identified as Adrian Beard, a 60-year-old Sparks, Nevada resident. Mr. Beard succumbed to his injuries at approximately 9:34 p.m.

A few yards away from the collision scene, deputies located a deceased wild horse which was determined to have been involved in the fatal collision. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) was notified.

Driver impairment and speed do not appear to have contributed to this fatal accident. Investigators believe Mr. Beard was riding within the posted speed limit when the wild horse ran out in front, not allowing Mr. Beard sufficient time to stop or avoid the collision with the animal.

The Sheriff’s Office urges all motorists to be aware that there are wild animals that travel near our roadways. These animals’ movements are extremely unpredictable and they will most commonly jump out in front of traffic.

“This historic agreement is another great example of the state working with counties to protect public safety,” CDCR Secretary Jeff Beard said. “This partnership will allow us to provide fire protection during what may promise to be a very busy fire season while at the same time rehabilitating lower level offenders.”

The contract allows Riverside County to ease its jail population and ensures enough able-bodied inmates are available to help with fire suppression and in other emergencies, such as floods and earthquakes. Because only low-level offenders may participate in such programs, the state’s Conservation Camps population is anticipated to decline since the implementation of Public Safety Realignment (Assembly Bill 109). Under the law, offenders convicted after October 1, 2011 of non-serious, non-violent, and non-sex crimes stay in county jail to serve their sentence.

The five-year contract stipulates the county will pay the state $46.19 per inmate per day which covers housing/supervision costs by CDCR as well as training costs for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Prevention (CAL FIRE).

CDCR jointly manages 39 adult and juvenile camps with CAL FIRE and five adult camps with the Los Angeles County Fire Department. Approximately 3,800 offenders currently participate in the Conservation Camps Program. In an average year, the fire crews provide more than 2.5 million hours of emergency response work and save the state more than $80 million annually. The crews are available year-round, and have helped to contain and mitigate all of California’s major disasters since 1946, including wildfires, floods, heavy snows, search and rescue operations, and earthquakes.

Deputies arrived and met with the victim, Vo who told them she had been gambling at the Lakeside Inn last night and left the casino with approximately $1,500.00 in cash. As she was walking back to her vehicle, someone struck her over the head with an unknown object knocking her unconscious. She later woke up in the truck of vehicle and the money missing.

During the course of the investigation, Vo admitted to Investigators that she lied. Vo admitted she had gambled and lost all of her paycheck. She fabricated the story because she was afraid to tell her husband that she had gambled away her entire paycheck.

No charges have been filed at this time.

Corbin’s wife turned to the police for help. She was placed in a safe location, away from the residence she shares with Anthony Corbin, while officers investigated and prepared search and arrest warrant affidavits. The investigation revealed that Corbin is an ex-felon with a violent criminal history and that he unlawfully possessed several firearms and high capacity magazines. Based on several risk factors, the SWAT team was used to execute the warrants this morning. Anthony Corbin surrendered peacefully as directed by officers, and was arrested without incident.

During the service of the search warrant officers found a 12 gauge shotgun, a .270 caliber rifle, a .9mm handgun with high capacity magazines, and drug paraphernalia. Corbin was charged with being an ex-felon in possession of firearms and ammunition, assault with a deadly weapon, making criminal terrorist threats, battery with serious bodily injury and domestic violence. SLTPD will be requesting the El Dorado District Attorney file a criminal enhancement of committing crimes in the furtherance of a criminal street gang.

The two accused, Chiheb ESSEGHAIER and Raed JASER, who live in the Montreal and Toronto area were conspiring to carry out a terrorist attack against a VIA passenger train. Charges include conspiring to carry out an attack against, and conspiring to murder persons unknown for the benefit of, at the direction of, or in association with a terrorist group.

The RCMP investigation named Project SMOOTH, was coordinated by RCMP-led Integrated National Security Enforcement Teams (INSETs) in Montreal and Toronto with the close collaboration of domestic partners and the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI). The RCMP would like to thank its INSET partners including the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, Canada Border Services Agency, Toronto Police Service, York Regional Police, Peel Regional Police, Ontario Provincial Police, Durham Regional Police, the Sûreté du Québec and the service de police de la Ville de Montréal. The RCMP is also grateful for the valuable assistance of the FBI, Citizenship and Immigration Canada, Transport Canada, VIA Rail and CN Police. These exceptional collaborative efforts directly contributed to making the arrests.

“Each and every terrorist arrest the RCMP makes sends a message and illustrates our strong resolve to root out terrorist threats and keep Canadians and our allies safe,” stated Assistant Commissioner James Malizia, responsible for Federal Policing Operations. “A meaningful response to these threats begins on Canadian streets and in Canadians homes and the RCMP works with all their partners, including communities across Canada, in the fight against terrorism.”

The public is always encouraged to bring any suspicious activities to the RCMP’s attention through the National Security Information Network (1-800-420-5805) or by contacting the police in their community.

DCSO Deputies arrived and found Rianilee Belles (38), Benjamin Dupreez (35) and Travis Belles (38) all from Gardnerville. Rianilee had suffered a bullet wound to her abdomen, and Rianilee’s brother, Benjamin had multiple contusions on his head.

Initial information retrieved from the involved parties was that Rainilee’s husband, Travis Belles, and Rainalee’s brother, Benjamin Dupreez, had been engaged in a verbal argument. During the argument, Benjamin reportedly produced a handgun to protect himself and his sister from Travis. Benjamin and Travis struggled over the gun, during which time the handgun discharged, with the round striking Rianilee in the abdomen.

DCSO Investigators responded to the scene and began investigation. The investigation is still ongoing.

Rianilee and Benjamin were subsequently taken to the Medical Center for treatment of their injuries.

Helzer was sentenced to death, along with his brother Glenn Helzer, on March 11, 2005, by a Contra Costa County jury for killing Ivan Stineman, Annette Stineman, Selina Bishop, Jennifer Villarin, and James Gamble in an extortion and murder scheme. Helzer had been on death row since March 11, 2005.

Since 1978 when California reinstated capital punishment, 58 condemned inmates have died from natural causes, 22 have committed suicide, 13 have been executed in California, one was executed in Missouri; and six have died from other causes. There are 733 offenders on California’s death row.

The victim regained consciousness and was provided further assistance with an emergency protective order issued by the court to prevent Klisch from contacting his mother until the matter can be heard in court.

Deputies arrived on scene and found 20 year old Bradley Endsley JR from Las Vegas, NV, inside his great-grandfathers residence holding a knife. As deputies began issuing commands, the victim 82 year old Robert Setsodi pulled into the driveway bleeding from a stab wound stating he was attacked by his grandson. Setsodi had escaped from the residence prior to the deputies’ arrival.
