The leader of a Rastafarian church that operated a marijuana garden that figured in the Aug. 1 shooting of two Yuba County sheriff's deputies was among 18 people arrested Tuesday when the Sheriff's Office served search warrants at 12 alleged illegal marijuana growing sites in Yuba and Sacramento counties.
Heidi Grossman-Lepp, 46, was booked into Sacramento County Jail on suspicion of conspiracy, producing or cultivating marijuana and possession of marijuana for sale, according to a Yuba County Sheriff's Office news release.
Sheriff's officials reported that they were still compiling arrest information late Tuesday afternoon and the names of the other 17 people taken into custody likely will be released Wednesday.
Approximately $21,000 in cash, 1,500 marijuana plants, more than five pounds of processed marijuana and eight guns were seized during the searches, the sheriff's office reported.
