Four Arrested, Meth Seized in Rosamond Narcotics Investigations
Deputies from the Kern County Sheriff’s Office Rosamond Substation arrested four individuals and seized methamphetamine and other evidence following two related investigations at a condemned property in Rosamond.
On September 25, 2025, deputies investigated a trailer in the 2400 block of Park Avenue, previously deemed uninhabitable by Code Compliance. Inside, they contacted Armando Gonzalez (50), who had three active warrants. Deputies also found a quarter pound of methamphetamine, individually packaged baggies, a digital scale, and a large amount of cash—evidence consistent with drug sales. Gonzalez was arrested on his warrants and booked on new charges including:
Possession of a Controlled Substance for Sale
Possession of Drug Paraphernalia
Possession of a Controlled Substance with Prior Convictions
On October 9, 2025, deputies returned to the same property and found four individuals inside a condemned motorhome. A search warrant led to the discovery of over half an ounce of methamphetamine, paraphernalia, cash, a digital scale, and packaging materials.
The following individuals were arrested and booked into the Kern County Jail:
Claudia Marroquin (44): Under the Influence of a Controlled Substance, Trespassing a Condemned Dwelling, Public Nuisance
Debra Graft (54): Possession of Methamphetamine for Sale, Conspiracy, Operating/Maintaining a Drug House, Possession of Paraphernalia, Trespassing, Public Nuisance
Gurinder Mann (35): Same charges as Graft, plus Felon in Possession of Ammunition and Prior Convictions
Armando Gonzalez (50): Same charges as Mann
