    The Road to Tyranny by Don Jans

    Gang Members Arrested For Firearms Possession  

    News Release

    On June 30, 2022, at approximately 9:30 p.m., officers from the Oxnard Special Enforcement Unit (Gang Unit) conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle at J St. and Bard Rd.

    Officers had prior knowledge that Marco Juarez was in the vehicle and that he had a felony warrant for a PROS violation with an original commitment offense of felony domestic violence.

    The Post Release Offender Program, created by Assembly Bill 109 – the 2011 Public Safety Realignment – that was effective October 1, 2011.

    This program mandates that individuals sentenced to non-violent, non-serious (irrespective of priors) or non-sex offenses will serve their sentences in county jails instead of state prison.

    The public should be aware that release under AB 109 is based on the offender’s most recent committing offense. Prior convictions are not considered.

    A second occupant in the vehicle, Louie Duran, was also found to have a warrant.  Juarez and Duran were both arrested for their warrants.

    Officers searched the vehicle pursuant to the terms of Juarez’ supervised release and located a loaded M&P 9-millimeter handgun, and a loaded 9-millimeter Glock-style Polymer 80 semi-automatic handgun.

    Polymer 80 semi-automatic handguns are sold commercially as incomplete, without serial numbers, and must be further manufactured to make them into functioning firearms.

    Juarez and Duran both documented criminal street gang members with prior felony convictions.  The prior felony convictions make them both prohibited persons.  Duran and Juarez were both charged with their warrants and for felony firearms violations
