Plot Synopsis

POT COPS is a three-part reality series that follows a Drug Enforcement Unit in Humboldt County as they locate, raid, arrest and cut down illegal crops in Northern California, where the countryside is overrun with armed Mexican drug cartels that are willing to use violence to protect their valuable marijuana crops. In order to avoid crossing the border with illegal substances, many cartels have set up marijuana grows where they can produce thousands of plants potentially worth thousands of dollars each -- and it's not just cartels setting up shop. Many average-joe growers operate from this area -- and they'll be brought down alongside the cartels -- as this determined Drug Enforcement Unit works day and night to keep the upper hand in the drug war against the dangerous and unpredictable growers. Humboldt's Pot Cops are: Agent Steve Dunn, Drug Task Force Special Agent, who switched careers from firefighting to law enforcement following a ride-along with a friend during a busy graveyard shift; Deputy Todd Fulton, Drug Enforcement Unit, who serves as a sniper and a rappel master in the Humboldt Country Sheriff's Office (HCSO), following the footsteps of his grandfather, a former Lt. Detective in HCSO; Lt. Wayne Hanson, Head of the Humboldt County Drug Task Force Unit, who joined the marijuana unit because he loved helicopters and hiking the hills and has been working marijuana eradication now for more than two decades; Deputy Blake Massaro, Drug Enforcement Unit (summer) & Drug Task Force (winter), who trained as an Emergency Medicine Technician and now serves as the team medic, while also serving as a member of the SWAT team; Deputy Greg Musson, Drug Enforcement Unit, who is is also the Rural Patrol deputy, the defensive tactics instructor, and the team breacher for the SWAT team; and Sgt. Bryan Quenell, Drug Enforcement Unit, who serves as a firearms instructor, a Taser instructor, and a rappel master, following the footsteps of his father, currently a detective with HCSO, and grandfather, formerly a sergeant with Eureka PD.
