Murder Mountain

S01E02 When Garrett’s family and friends realize he has vanished on Murder Mountain, they ask the local sheriff’s department for help, but are told there is nothing to be done. Frustrated, they hire a local private investigator, Chris Cook, to find answers. As Garrett’s mystery deepens, we dive into the history of Humboldt County’s outlaw culture. The area’s Original Growers (OG’s) explain how the county went from a peaceful haven of marijuana-growing hippies in the 60’s to a place ridden with greed and violence. The passage of Prop 64, now legalizing marijuana in California, promises to clean up the crime. But new regulations are taking a toll on local cannabis growers who want to go legal, driving many of them out of business or back into the black market.
