I was shocked to read about this house also and wondering why there isn't serious legal consequences.

I'm not shocked that high school and middle school know about "the meth house". I'm sure those kids know more than us sometimes. Unfortunately it's not just in Folsom. I learned today of a serious problem in Auburn. Seems that in the general area of a Rite Aid store all the local kids know to go there to drink alcohol then go to the school basketball games drunk. In the official police report one freshman student went into the store, got a large bottle of orange juice, drank 1/2 of it then got a bottle of vodka off the shelf and poured it into the orange juice. He then set the blended alcohol drink on a shelf. When he went outside there were 2 middle school kids waiting, he told them where it was, they went in, took it into the bathroom and drank it. At the basketball game the 2 young boys were caught by police and told the whole story. The store had everything on video camera outside of the store so the conversation of where the young boys were to go find the alcohol was taped. The cops said this exact situation is happening every weekend. I'm wondering why the store would allow kids to wander through or hang out in a bathroom.

I don't think our young high school kids or middle school kids would actually go to that mansion. It's probably the pick up point for the drug dealers to pick up their product then they manage to sell it to the kids.

If you kid admits to knowing of that house it doesn't mean they are "using", I'm sure alot of really good kids just hear the gossip and let it go in one ear and out the other.

No one should feel sorry for this guy. Being afraid of his guests is a good point, but that house could be a bomb waiting for a explosion if they are cooking meth in that house as well as selling it. Cops need to get rid of that house and put that guy on the next RT Train going out of this city!

The lawyer said in the paper that her wants to supress evidence because there wasn't a proper warrant.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but they dont need a warrant. If they have probable cause or are allowed in the home by someone they have the right to search. Just like your car. When they ask to search your car, you dont have to let them and then they would have to get a warrant to search it, unless they see something or smell something that would give them probable cause. smile.gif

And whoever thinks that them hiding in this neighbor hood is disguising them, they are wrong! How many calls did the Bee say the police have had at that address? It isnt a mystery!

You know this doesnt surprise me...It is no different from when I was a kid. Kids would get alcohol somehow someway and go out to the middle of a field and have a bon fire and drink. It happens every where and always has. I do keep a tight leash on my Son. I know it might backfire on me someday, but I am willing to take the chance. I dont let him wander the streets with his friends at night time (which I see all over the place). I want to know where he is at all times. He doesnt really ask to do too much, but he is still only a freshman. Ahhhhhhhh!

I just think that now day’s parents dont pay much attention to their children and ask questions and/or just talk. I must know where he is at all times and he must check in with me every 2 hours. If he is staying the night at a friend’s I must talk to the parent to make sure. If he goes to the movies then I must know who is taking them and picking them up and I confirm it with the person (has to be a parent.) He is use to this so he just follows the rules and I dont usually have an issue. I figure that I am trying my best to keep tabs on him and know what he is doing and this is all I can do. I cant follow him around all day to make sure he is behaving (although I would like to.) Haha

What else can they do other then call the police? The neighbors have let him know and he is well aware that he is a problem, but its obvious based on the numerous busts there that he's not about to change any of his bad habits or do the right thing

the article says the house is for sale - I drive by there daily and have never seen a for sale sign

we can only hope he really does move away soon

anyone wanna buy a pimped out McMansion?

It's 117 woodsmoke and its listed on a bunch of websites but who would want to spend that kind of money on a house with that kind of history. Are the gonna have Roy's boy's coming back for years and years looking for where the party moved to? Check out this zillow repot....it shows the value of all of the houses in that area the meth house is the highest! I can't believe it! Check this out:

I used to live in that house last year. from about late april to mid july. then i put myself into rehab on july 26th up in the napa valley. but yea, i know what really happened there, and the news paper article barely touches it. i feel horrible tho for the neighbors having to witness all that tho. i still keep tabs on the tweakers i used to party with up there and now im told theres a new "Mansion" in Cameron Park. some 52yo w/ a huge Ranch and multimillion dollar home too. god hopes he comes to his senses before the cops raid his house. and about roy, he was a great guy, he just let the drugs consume him, people would purposely O'D him to sleep so they could funk up the house, steal, and throw parties. i attached some photos. you'll see the custom prized chandelier, his prized Steinway and Sons piano, the very large kitchen(was dirty in that pic) and the family room w/ soaring ceilings(about 22ft i think). that house was a mammoth. and the amount of technology in it amazed me. theres a panic button in the master bedroom that turns on every single light in the house. im done!

It's got to be hard on the neighbors. It sounds like they were afraid to call the police for fear of retaliation in the form of vandalism and break-ins.

In the newspaper article, the police that had been inside described it as a fixer-upper. Not sure how many people are in the market for a $1.5 million fixer.

That's what I was thinking! If I lived in that neighborhood and paid that kind of money for my house, I would be on the phone every five minutes with the police. They must be calling the police all of the time if it's as bad as the Bee said. It's kinda crazy to call it a mansion when they say it has four bedrooms....what's the definition of a mansion?????

We had the police there 4 days in a row once. july 4-7. and youd have to go inside the house to find out why its "the mansion". custom home theater that seats 12. cherry wood cabinetry through out the whole house. including on the coffered ceiling in the office. the columns outside are lighted at night, and change colors via fiber optics, which also surrounded the pool and the outside concrete patio had integrated fiber optics on the ground. a metal spiral staircase that went up to the second story balcony. when u walked into the front door, theres a stair case on each side of u sweeping up the walls to the two bedrooms on the right, and a balcony that went to the left where the office and the theater were. the master bath was bigger than the master bedroom. the house was fully wired w/ smart lighting. if u experienced this house, youd call it a mansion too

Obviously calling the police isn't working, sometimes people have to take things into their own hands. And no, it's not about being a tough guy it's about taking back YOUR neighborhood.

AMEN!!!!
