Felony Marijuana Arrest

Valley Springs, CA...On 11/20/11 Calaveras Sheriffs Department Deputies conducted a vehicle stop on a van on Highway 26 at Saint Andrews Road in Valley Springs. Deputies made contact with the driver of the vehicle, Jeannie Eastridge (41), and the passenger of the vehicle, Paul Eastridge (42), both of Rail Road Flat. Also in the vehicle was another adult, Michael Langston (18), of Railroad Flat, and 5 children (ages 3, 7, 13, 15, and 16). While speaking with the vehicle occupants sheriff’s deputies smelled a strong odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle. They also noticed that Mr. Eastridge was bleeding heavily from an injury to his head...

Mr. Eastridge stated that he had just been the victim of a robbery in the Stockton area where he was struck over the head with a firearm; however, nothing was stolen from him during the robbery.
Based on the odor of marijuana, combined with the apparent serious injury to Mr. Eastridge, a search of the vehicle was conducted. During the search sheriff’s deputies located and seized approximately 25 pounds of processed and packaged marijuana. The marijuana was stored in a cardboard box in the cargo area of the van.

Paul Eastridge, Jeannie Eastridge and Michael Langston were arrested for Possession of Marijuana for Sales (a felony), Child Abuse (a felony) and Conspiracy to Commit a Crime (a felony). All three suspects were booked into the Calaveras County Jail and each are being held in lieu of $161,250.00 bail. The children were turned over to the custody of Calaveras Child Protective Services.

No other information was able to be obtained on the reported robbery, including suspect information.
